Neuroscience-Based Tips for Building a Strong Connection with Your Child

On-Demand Class · Parenting

Join me in this trip to discovery of our limiting beliefs and what we have passed on to our kids, as well as what we can do as parents to take control of our internal communication and connection with our children.

Class Description

Three years ago, my teenage girl was diagnosed with an eating disorder, a depression and attention deficit. From that day on, I started my search for tools to help her work with her patterns and self-beliefs. As a parent and as an educator, I questioned myself about what I was doing wrong in order for her not to want to eat and feel so sad. Because of her, I started studying the processes of the mind and how our lack of awareness and connection to our dearest ones affects our lives and our children. With the research and courses that I took, I can provide techniques on how to connect with our children's and adolescent´s needs and help them become aware of their internal processes through tools that are given to us by Neuroscience. It sounds complicated, but it’s very simple! I learned that we CAN connect with our children in way that we can understand them deeply, just by being quiet. In this course, we will learn easy tools that can help students understand themselves and what they are going through without talking too much, without the common adolescent arguments or rebellious reactions. We practice listening more and talking less. And through “self-empowing” tools that they can use to work with their emotions, we will learn to grow closer to them every day. Come with me and learn the tools so our kids can connect to us and to their bodies, minds and hearts. Learn the ways in which awareness of our own self- limitations and common behaviors can either break us or make us successful parents and give our kids the tools to manage their emotions and their self-respect. Join me in this trip to discovery of our limiting beliefs and what we have passed on to our kids, as well as what we can do as parents to take control of our internal communication and connection with our children. With this course, we will learn many ways that we can connect with them and give them interesting and easy tips to learn about themselves. Let’s teach them how to “fish” in this world of emotional turmoil and help them learn to help themselves!

Class Materials

I will provide a worksheept with questions to reflect on, and exercises to work on at home with your children. You will only need to do your homework and apply it with your family. You just need some paper and pen and on your way to discovery of your own self and your children´s deepest desires.
