Persoonlijk – Third Sundays, 10:30am-12:00p.m

Family is a place of practice. How do we work with our minds and hearts in the sometimes turbulent waters of family life? We can all use reminders and support to stay connected to our patience, vrijgevigheid, discipline, and wisdom. Each week we will explore a different theme – something valuable for both parents and children.

These sessions provide:

• Age-appropriate, secular introduction to mindfulness (the innate qualities of one’s mind and heart);
• Support in maintaining a sitting practice;
• Support in developing mindfulness and compassion in the everyday moments of family life;
• Support in aligning our parenting with our values;
• An activity the whole family can participate in together!

Wat te verwachten

During our 90 minute program, some activities will happen all together as a group and others will be focused for children or adults. We will have a space for children’s activities set up in an adjoining room, or separate part of the room. One professional instructor will be available for the children, and they may either choose to work on an activity or they may choose to stay with their parents for some -or all- the session. Parents will be responsible for feeding their children and any bathroom breaks or diaper changes.

Everyone is invited to stay afterward to share tea and BYO snacks in the community area with other families. Please refrain from bringing products which contain nuts. 

Make yourselves comfortable

This is not a silent retreat. We welcome the whole range of family life. We recognize that some children might be shy or rambunctious, some might cry, some will nurse. We will work to make the space safe for everyone, and we invite you to do what is comfortable with your own family.
