The Lotus Child
For parents of children aged 3-6
Description
This workshop offers parents a nourishing pause from the busyness of life—a space to reconnect with themselves, their parenting journey, and their children. Through guided reflection, sharing, and supportive discussion, we create a sacred space to deepen awareness and strengthen the parent-child bond.
Focusing on the second stage of early childhood (ages 3–6), we explore key themes through a blend of developmental science, experiential art, meditation, and simple daily practices. Topics may include:
-
Navigating guilt, worry, shame, and expectations with compassion and skillful means
-
Supporting major transitions such as starting preschool or welcoming a new sibling
-
Encouraging young children’s desire to participate in daily life while maintaining family rhythm
-
Fostering independence through inclusion, not entertainment
-
Nurturing well-being through mindful eating, shared meals, and healthy routines
-
Practicing deep listening and helping children articulate their feelings with clarity and confidence
We help parents ask better questions, listen with empathy, and guide their children toward emotional literacy. The journey of parenting becomes a practice in presence, patience, and connection.

We anchor ourselves in practices that cultivate love, joy, kindness, and serenity. Together, we explore themes such as:

Meeting developmental shifts with curiosity and wonder

Recognising our interconnection and shared basic goodness
