In two weeks, I will be going to the beautiful Berkshire Mountains for a 3-day Simplicity Parenting Group Leader Training program. I will be there to more deeply understand Kim John Payne’s work, to connect with people who are passionate about it, and to learn how to help other families implement small changes that bring tremendous joy to their daily lives.
I have wondered and daydreamed about this opportunity for awhile, and to be moving forward and actually preparing for it is a thrill! I'm starting to prepare for my adventure by setting some intentions for the Simplicity Parenting training...
More than anything, I intend to be open throughout the three days, listening to the wisdom of my facilitators and fellow trainees, reflecting on our discussions, and sharing my own knowledge, questions and challenges. I do have personal parenting challenges (those lessons I seem to need to learn over and over again), and I hope to make peace with what has been, while gaining new insights, building confidence and gathering courage to change old patterns when I return home. I intend for this training to provide a deep well of inspiration that I will draw from again and again as I raise my children.
I also intend to share all of this inspiration with families in our community! My friend and health coach, Hannah Marcotti and I have already started to plan an amazing 6-week course, Simple Mama, for busy moms looking to slow down and re-connect with their passions and joys. Following my training, we will have even more to add to our course! I’m really looking forward to sharing these ideas with moms who- like me- are seeking simpler, more enjoyable, more fulfilling experiences with their children.
