Long Beach Moms presents Conscious Parenting Topic: How to handle meltdowns
2024-02-01 18:00 - 19:30 | Kid Work’s Children Center, 3621 E Broadway, Long Beach, CA, 90803, United States
Long Beach Moms helps organize meetups throughout the city, group outings, charity and business networking events, and countless other opportunities to help support each other as moms. Because of our incredible group of mamas, Long Beach Moms has become the premier trusted resource for navigating motherhood in the Long Beach community. We are community moms, navigating motherhood while discovering Long Beach together.
Supporting parents in our local community thru various meet ups with playdates, connected resources, workshops that inspire and mentor while doing good in our community. We are raising the next generation of leaders.
Curious on how to handle meltdowns? Let’s discuss and give you the tools to empower how to handle the unexpected moments in parenting. Join us for Stepping into Conscious Parenting, an introduction into what it looks like to parent consciously.
Conscious Parenting is a method coined by Dr. Shefali Tsabary, where we look into the struggles of parenting with a different lens, a paradigm shift that gets to the root cause of the struggles. It calls for authentic connections with our children, eliminating the power struggles, the suffering and the worry, in effect creating a calm, peaceful, more joyous and healthier environment for all involved.
A group led by Dinuka Ranasinghe, a Long Beach Moms member since 2019, a local business owner who graduated from the Conscious Coaching Institute of Dr. Shefali Tsabary and received Conscious Parenting Method Certification.
If this is your first time at Stepping into Conscious Parenting and you are wondering what to expect; this is an open group discussion not a workshop and this is a monthly gathering.
There will also be beverages, light snacks and curious parents seeking parenting options. Babes in arms are welcome. Please no crawlers or walkers as this is set in a very playful setting that will be distracting.
