Stress Reduction for Parents:  Maximizing Your Child’s Well Being While Minimizing Parental Stress

Mindfulness meditation is an adaptation of various Eastern practices meant to be accessible to anyone whatever their background.  Over the last several decades mindfulness has been shown to reduce stress, increase well being, and build flexibility in problem solving.   Through practice of techniques that lower stress we become less reactive and more observant of whatever is going on in our lives – issues with our kids, internal fears and habitual ways we deal with challenging situations – permitting us to make more skillful choices.  Studies suggest both medical and psychological benefits.   This one night seminar will introduce both the science of mindfulness and practical tools for use in daily life.
