Honoring the Mother-Child Relationship Workshop |
| |
Being
a mother conveys experiencing a life full of love, joyous moments and
suprises. Being a mother can also invoke feelings of "being tested"
or "feel on trial". These moments can be cruel, feel foreign
and lonely. With FOCUSING you can learn how to honor yoursel as a guide
and a teacher and how to tap into your natural understanding and knowing
without getting caught in the drama of the moment. Focusing will help
put to rest old defenses so as to gain new insights on how to problem
solve, reduce stress and enhance creativity. Joalie has been focusing
since 1996 and has taught this practice to various professionals including
teachers, parents, healthcare providers and businessmen. She is a physician
who became interested in various techniques which have proven effective
in stress reduction and in achieving positive lifestyle changes. There
is no class on April 22. |

Honoring the Mother-Teen Relationship Workshop |
| |
Being
the mother of a teenager has its own special issues and opportunities-knowing
when to stand firm and when to let go, when to laugh and when to pray
for strength. You will discover that honoring yourself not only allows
relationships to be open, loving and respectful, but will also provide
an anchor, a model and a validation of what you are trying to instill
in your teenager. With FOCUSING you can learn how to honor yourself as
a guide and teacher and how to tap into your natural understanding and
knowing without getting caught in the drama of the moment. Focusing will
help put rest defenses so as to gain new insights on how to problem solve,
reduce stress and enhance creativity. There is no class on April 23. |

An introductory session, usually lasting one to two hours, to design your
personal commemoration. |
