Mindfulness for Parents of SEND Children
Pause – Soften – Connect – Be
A Mindfulness Course for parents and carers, which looks at how you deal with the stress and worry which comes from being in the role of a parent or carer of a child with additional needs. This ten-week course allows parents to notice how you habitually react when under stress and how practising mindfulness techniques can help you to regulate your emotions more effectively, including becoming more resilient during stress. Therefore, you will become more able to pause, soften, connect with your breath and be in the moment with whatever difficulty that may be here. And then to respond more calmly and appropriately. Evidence shows that when under stress, parenting skills are found to collapse. With Mindfulness for Parents, it’s the parents’ own stress and suffering, that is the primary focus of the training rather than the problem behaviour of the child.
Mindfulness for Parents/Carers supports you to:
- Reduce stress
- Reduce harmful intergenerational patterns of stressed-out parenting
- Improve emotional regulation
- Improve family communication and relationships
