Workshop Overview
This program is not psychotherapy or a substitute for it. It is a psycho-educational and meditation program. Additionally, it is helpful and recommended to do psychotherapy in parallel with this type of program.
This program is suitable for beginners to meditation and healing work.
The main idea of this course is to go back to the basics of visualizing perfect nurturers/ideal parents and trouble shooting any problems with the foundational work of attachment repair.
Additionally, in the meditations we’ll take our time to reinforce the experience of
-
- Safety
- Belonging
- Unconditional love
- Support for explorations
- Delight
- Problem solving within the zone of proximal development (ZPD)

This event will draw from
- Ideal Parent Figure Protocol
- Attachment Theory – generally
- Dynamic Maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation – particularly
- Inner child work
Issues targeted:
- Insecure attachment
- Relationship problems – fear of abandonment, not feeling safe, feeling unvalued in relationships
- Low self-esteem
- Poor self-agency and exploration abilities
- Strong, sometimes overwhelming negative emotional responses
Miscellaneous Notes
Lecture content will be brief, with the content focusing more on experiential learning through meditation and Q&A.
There will be time for Q&A and spot coaching during the live event. The Q&A recording will not be made available thereafter. If you do not attend live, you will not have access to the Q&A.
We will be doing deep work. For that reason please feel free to take a break at any point.
Walking Meditation
There will be a few breaks for walking meditation, and brief instructions will be given.
