Extravagant Love: Our Children, Ourselves
This twelve-week online seminar explores parenting as the discipline of meeting our best selves, again and again. We will consider the concept of extravagant love as a set of actions, rather than feelings, and reflect on specific commitments and practices that can strengthen our relationships with our children and ourselves.
Each week, you will engage with content, skill-building and experiential exercises, reflections, and discussions with other participants online. During the twelve weeks, we will share our intentions for the course and examine ten mindful commitments and related parenting practices, such as ways to parent with respect for our children as unique individuals. Throughout the course, participants will develop a plan for integrating some or all of the commitments and practices into their daily lives as parents or caregivers.
