Peaceful Parents Testimonials

A big thank you for a wonderful course you provided over the past 4 weeks.  It was practical, insightful and helpful and your style of facilitating and coaching was natural and supportive & a lovely group of parents.  Wonderful initiative by St. Mary’s to offer to parents
 
Thanks, MJ
St. Mary’s Hampton
I want to say THANK YOU!!! As I believe that I have been very lucky to have had the chance to participate in the peaceful parents program this year. I really found your sessions so enriching and enlightening, each and every one of them have been an opportunity for reflecting, gaining self-awareness, connecting with our emotions and with others through sharing thoughts experiences in a very safe and warm environment.

The Program has definitely been an invaluable opportunity for growth. I feel I carry my “tool kit” with me and I also feel much better prepared to deal with my own and others’ problems in a more reflective and effective way. 
Thanks for having shown such a genuine interest in helping us bring out the best in ourselves. I believe there is still a lot of room for improvement, but I feel like while I don’t know the way, at least I now know which way to go.

​It was lovely to see how we all connected so well and from our hearts – the dynamics of the group that were established in the program has incredibly left a trace on us as a group. I found this fascinating!

My children are now opening up more through the use of reflective listening, which is improving our communication. Peaceful Parents has made me more aware and appreciative of the little things. I have learnt so much and highly recommend this workshop.

I would like to say that after your last session, we spent 2 afternoons “in the flow” with my kids. Drawing and building lego for hours. It was very nice. My relationship with my children is more relaxed since I have been trying the tools you have given me. I’ve tried reflective listening (I realise I have never been a reflective listener) and it’s hard but surprisingly effective when I get it right. I have tried naming emotions with my children which has also been unexpectedly for me very successful in comforting and calming my children. I have found deep relaxation through the breathing techniques and meditate almost every day. I am understanding myself more as I try to notice my thoughts.
 
I have found “time” when I stopped rushing things and multitasking. Our home is more loving. We have more fun and laughs and play. I am working on not reacting and not becoming emotional which is again very hard for me. But I can see how effective it is. And how much more my children open up and even my partner. 
 
There are so many little things that I learnt with you during these sessions that I never considered. And I am very grateful to you. I have still a long way to go l, however it’s a journey that will only get better I think, as I try to become better at using these techniques and changing my mindset. For me the practical examples you gave us made it easier for me to try these tools. 
 
It’s been good also to share experiences with the other parents. That’s where one realises how similar we are.  These seminars can help so many parents and so many families find deeper connections, bonds as they can slowly unlearn parenting styles that have been passed on to them and try new ways to communicate.  Thank you. I am very grateful.

This workshop was a huge support and has enabled me to approach my daughter’s anxiety in a different way.  Using the new techniques and skills I’ve learnt it has made our whole household a lot calmer and more manageable.

 Peaceful Parents has made me be more mindful of the here and now and allow myself to stop and slow down. It has also changed the way I listen to my daughter.

I really enjoyed the Peaceful Parent workshop, the sharing of experiences and input from others Mums was invaluable. I have loved introducing all the ideas with my family and I feel we are now more mindful and feeling closer as a family unit.

Peaceful Parents is a program that can easily fit into any busy family life. It has helped improve the communications channels, increase positive experiences at home and create a happier more mindful environment where we appreciate the small things and each other more.
