workshop Overview
This program is suitable for beginners to meditation and healing work.
In this Conscious Parenting course we will do guided visualization meditations to deeply and experientially ingrain secure attachment in ourselves and then learn to give our children the ‘factors that lead to secure attachment’.
List of meditations:
- Perfect Nurturer Meditation (so we experience and ingrain secure attachment)
- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation to help bring about secure attachment in the child.
- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation with emphasis on attunement and comforting when the child is upset
- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation with emphasis on expressing delight to help the child imprint health self esteem
- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation with emphasis on supporting the child’s exploration and play

- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation with emphasis on entrainment and synchronization of mental and physical states with the child to imbue a deep sense of connection and belonging
- Embodying Secure Attachment Meditation with emphasis on guiding the child through their ‘proximal zone of development’ (helping with problem solving)
This course draws from:
- Attachment Theory
- Dan Brown and David Elliott’s Ideal Parent Figure Protocol for healing adult attachment disturbances.
- Mindfulness
- Visualization Meditation
- Compassion Meditation
- Mentalization Based Treatment
- Vygotsky’s model of “zone of proximal development”
This Course uses an Evidence Based modality
