ABOUT THE SERIES

This semester, we will continue to develop community practices within the home. We will focus on establishing new practices and habits that will increase your confidence as a parent and give you a plan for those (inevitable) challenging times.

What You'll Learn

During this 4-part series, some of the topics we will explore will be effective communication, child development, wellbeing, behavioral psychology, and positive parenting as a way to create an environment where children (and adults) are:

encouraged and engaged,
and feel a sense of connection, value and belonging.

This series has a focus on “Families”, but it will also involve practical tools that anyone – a caregiver or not – can apply to their lives.

SESSION 1: January 17

Wellbeing in the home: Bringing out the best in your child and yourself

Wellbeing is a positive state where we feel and function well as individuals and as a family unit. During this session we will explore the following:

Wellbeing as a journey, not a destination. How can you move forward towards a state of greater wellbeing in the home?
What would it look like if things were going well in your home?
How can you make that more likely to occur? What small steps can you take?
How are you taking care of yourself?

SESSION 2: February 28

Building Resilience and Developing a Growth Mindset

During this session, we will discover practical steps for the whole family to grow their mindset and their relationships. Our children should know their worth, have the confidence to take risks, and be happy with the person they are. They should feel free to choose their own path in life and withstand every obstacle and challenge along the way in order to achieve success.

But what does success look like? Achieving straight A’s? Sports awards? Learning multiple languages? A degree from a prestigious university?

Join us to explore this important topic.

SESSION 3: March 21

Mindful Parents, Mindful Kids

From our earliest moments, mindfulness can help to minimize anxiety and increase happiness. Children of all ages can benefit from mindfulness, the simple practice of paying attention to the present moment in a non-judgmental manner. It can help parents and caregivers as well, by promoting happiness and relieving stress. During this session I will offer basic tips for children of all ages, as well as practices that help develop compassion, focus, creativity and empathy.

Parents will leave with practical strategies that can be implemented immediately in the precious time that they have with their children, resulting in less stress within the home and more connection and calm.

SESSION 4: April 4

Summer Routines and Family Connections

During the school year, daily routines are defined by the school day. But once summer comes, that pattern may not be so well defined. Should you try to keep the kids to a routine similar to what you do in the school year, or let things slide?

During this session we will discuss summer routines, creating agreements and follow through, and fun family rituals to connect on a deeper level.

Sessions will take place on Tuesdays, from 4:00-5:00pm Athens, Greece time:
