NEW Embracing Wellbeing parenting group

Embark on a transformative journey with our Embracing Wellbeing Parent Support Group, held every Thursday except for during school holidays. This drop-in support group is suited for parents seeking not just survival but thriving in diverse circumstances. Together, we'll explore ways to care for different aspects of your health—mental, physical, social, emotional, and spiritual.

The program features engaging workshops, discussions, and practical meditation/relaxation exercises. It's a dedicated opportunity for you to step out of your caregiving roles, connect with others, and prioritize your own wellbeing. Recognize that a calm, loving, and empathetic parent is an invaluable gift to your children.

This inclusive program is suitable for:

• Any parent interested in enhancing overall wellbeing
• Parents of neurodivergent children (e.g., autism, ADHD, dyslexia) regardless of NDIS status
• Parents of children with physical disabilities
• Parents of someone with additional needs (e.g., anxiety)
• Any parent finding parenting difficult for various reasons (e.g., parental depression, anxiety, difficult child behaviours)

Designed for parents who:

• Are interested in exploring practical ways to honour their own wellbeing
• Realize that to be the best parent, self-care is not selfish but essential
• Want to explore practical life skills for challenging times
• Aim to model self-care to promote their children’s wellbeing and resilience
• Would like to enjoy more positive relationships with their children
• Want to communicate more effectively with their children
• Are interested in creating a life they love!
