Parenting Events in Ardmore

When parents are stressed out and/or overwhelmed, they can fall into blocked care. Blocked care is a self-protective mechanism in the nervous system activated by excessive stress. This suppresses the higher brain functions needed for caregiving, causing a parent’s nervous system to develop a defensive stance toward their child. This state can cause shame and feelings of failure in parents. But there is hope! This workshop is for you if: You love your child but don't like them. You thought you were a great parent, but now you feel like a failure. You feel like you've tried everything, but nothing moves the needle. Even the professionals don't seem to have answers. You feel isolated, burnt out, and are losing hope. In this interactive workshop you will: Recognize the causes and signs of blocked care. Learn how to use neuroscience to overcome blocked care. Take time to care for your nervous system, so you can be the stable foundation for your family.
