Acknowledging our own flawed and complex natures allows us to be more fully available to contrasting or conflicting attributes within our child, reducing criticism, control, anger and the need to ‘fix’ them – managing your internal world better, you will find adaptable solutions without strain. It is less about regulating, ruling and reassuring your child, and more about developing the tools to slow down, reflect and become aware of responses within to help yourself in moments of conflict  Experience gentle exercises and step-by-step learning that allows you the privacy of self-reflection within a supportive group environment.
