This is a place for parents to reconnect with themselves while learning sustainable, compassionate parenting practices.
Parenting is deeply rewarding but can also feel overwhelming. This class meets you where you are: supporting your mental, physical, and spiritual health so you can parent from a place of balance. Through practical skills grounded in the Three Acts of Goodness, you’ll learn simple, sustainable ways to bring calm, kindness, and wisdom into family life, to explore alternative ways of living and thinking, and to find deeper meaning for yourself beyond society’s expectations.
This class offers practical ideas you can use right away, whatever your background.
We bring together self-development practice and parenting skills. Through brief, accessible Dharma teachings and practices such as meditation, mindful movement, and everyday wisdom, we cultivate steadiness and compassion. At the same time, we offer practical workshops on modern child psychology and offer concrete, compassionate approaches to discipline and development. Parents learn together, practice together, and leave with tools to create calmer, more connected homes.
