Self-Love for Folks of UnderAffirming Parents
Advertisement
If our parents were overly critical, emotionally abusive, not present enough, or some form of under-affirming, we retain scars of their message: we're not worthy of deep love. We truly are, but it takes work to fully realize it. In addition to facilitating group reflection on the Self-Compassion Workbook, I'll show how we can listen deeply and lovingly to our truths and model an empathic self-talk of kindness and acceptance.
This support group is 8 weeks, 90 minutes each session. 4-8 people. $208 for the entire 8-week session. (Or $175 cash option.)
This group is for you IF ONE of these is true:
You
* hear negative self-talk in your mind
* seek approval or affirmation from others more than from within
* have dominating perfectionist tendencies
or
* have trouble regulating emotions (feeling & expressing them well)
and
*you're ready to grow more in self-love!
*you want confidence in healthy coping responses to stress.
*you want to support others who are on this journey.

This support group is in person. You must register beforehand; registration is limited.
More about this class:
We will explore about ten chapters of The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook: A Proven Way to Accept Yourself, Build Inner Strength, and Thrive, by Kristin Neff: https://a.co/d/btp2o2s. (You can buy it or borrow it from a library.) One chapter will be the focus each week, and you can come having read the information and done the exercises as much as you can. (I understand that sometimes life prevents us from doing what we intend- it's truly okay.) The book is 24 chapters long, and you’re welcome to work the rest on your own, or reach out to me for individual support with it.
This book contains many the exercises like ones I teach in individual sessions because many people need them.
A group offers us the experience to:
~honor a shared human experience of struggle and growth
~help ourselves stay accountable to practicing,
~receive empathy (be compassionately seen and heard), and,
~get extra support from Shannon at a group rate.
