Trauma Informed Parenting Workshop - registrations close in less than a week

Margarita from The Mental Wellbeing Company

Dear @everyone
With less than 1 week to register to this closed door event with workbook included.
As the school gates reopen and the familiar rhythm of daily routines resumes, a crucial question lingers: Are our children truly equipped to navigate the emotional labyrinth that awaits them? Are you?
Picture this: Your child, overwhelmed and misunderstood, labeled as "badly behaved" when they're actually crying out for help. It's a scenario that breaks my heart, and I'm sure it resonates with you too.
That's why I'm reaching out with an urgent invitation to join our Trauma Informed Parenting Workshop on Monday, 21st October. This isn't just another parenting class—it's a transformative experience that will revolutionize how you understand and support your child's mental health.
Why is this workshop a game-changer?
🧠 Unlock the Secrets of the Nervous System: Discover how your child's behavior is deeply connected to their neurological responses.
🔍 Recognize Hidden Traumas: Learn to spot the subtle signs that your child might be struggling.
❤ Master Empathetic Parenting: Develop skills to create a nurturing environment where your child feels truly seen and heard.
🛠 Gain Practical Strategies: Walk away with tools to foster resilience and emotional well-being in your child.
The harsh reality is that mental health challenges are reaching epidemic proportions:
Depression affects over 264 million people worldwide.
Suicide claims a life every 40 seconds, with young people at particular risk.
Mental health issues cost the global economy $1 trillion annually in lost productivity.
But here's the empowering truth: You have the power to change this narrative for your child.
Imagine a world where your child thrives emotionally, where they feel understood and supported, where they have the resilience to face life's challenges head-on. This isn't just a dream—it's the reality we can create together.
Don't let another day pass by feeling helpless in the face of your child's struggles.
Reserve Your Spot Now

By attending this workshop, you're not just investing in your child's future—you're joining a movement to revolutionize mental health support for the next generation.
Let's move beyond talking about broken systems. Let's be the change our children desperately need.
Together, we can create a brighter, more emotionally intelligent future for our kids.
Will you join me in this crucial mission?

Maintaining independence as we age

Grace Joel Retirement Village

As we age, mobility and health issues can affect daily routines and independence. It’s natural to want to step in when a loved one faces challenges with tasks they once managed easily. However, instead of taking over completely, finding a balance that offers support while still encouraging independence is key.

Chris Sinclair, Ryman's Community Liaison Leader, shares helpful tips for families and caregivers on how to promote independence and support overall wellbeing.
