Parenting books, blogs and courses are all fantastic resources to better
understand children and parenting.
But how do you make it all make sense for your family's unique needs and personalities?
How do you apply the tips and tricks in a way that stops the cycle of generational suffering?
Parent coaching with Maggie gives you the time to step back and see the bigger picture for your family. Do you want to understand the cycles that you want to break free from, create new patterns and feel confident to use tools to better manage big feelings and behaviors?
Do you put way too much pressure on yourself to parent in just the right way?
It is possible to be a conscious, loving parent who gets in wrong sometimes and still be gentle with yourself and your child even in the hard moments.
No, this is not permissive parenting. This is heart-centered parenting.
This is parenting that centers the importance of connection and empathy while guiding children through the most challenging moments.
And how is it different than therapy?
Education on your child's stage of development, and how to best understand parenting at each stage.
Tools and techniques for conscious and compassionate parenting.
Support so you can learn how to be effective in applying new ways of parenting.
Many parents of little ones start to recognize in very visceral way that they did not get the connection and support they needed as children to feel good inside, and want to do it better for their own children. When we don't get the kind of love that we needed as children, we can start to close off parts of our self which creates patterns of energy inside that cuts off access to the whole heart of who we really are. Whole Heart Parenting strives to reintroduce the parent to these cut off parts in a gentle yet profound way so that the parent can show up with their entire heart (being) for their children.
Whole Heart Parenting recognizes that when we heal ourselves, our children won't have so much to healing to do. Old patterns can be shifted inside the body and inside the relationship with our children.
Whole Heart Parenting provides tools that support these changes and to get through the difficult moments.
Whole Heart Parenting recognizes that a conscious and compassionate approach to parenting can break these old painful cycles and simultaneously help the children thrive and heal the parent. And this approach plants seeds for a new way of relating that our world so desperately needs... one that centers empathy, cooperation and inclusion.
Coaching does not require that you rehash old traumas.
Coaching does not diagnose or treat mental health disorders although it can be just as healing.
