MINDFULNESS
Mindful Village®
Mindful Village® is a secular eight to twelve week on-demand program geared towards parents/caregivers of neurodivergent children.
The four main components of the program; mindfulness; positive psychology; neuroscience, and compassion, are combined with a low-demand parenting style and a neuro-affirming perspective.
Most people do not have the time, energy, or resources to train in all the evidence-based programs which ultimately led to the creation of Mindful Village®.
The primary goal in creating this program was to create one program which combined the qualities that would appeal to parents of ND children (many of whom, like myself, are neurodivergent themselves) and would be easy to understand and implement.
In addition, one of the biggest benefits is the ability to do it online if you are in a remote area or have limited time/financial resources.
This program is a much more affordable than weeks and months of training in these areas!
Currently, only the foundational 8 week program is being offered.
In the future, this will followed by optional Modules which consist of an additional 4 weeks specific to various neurodivergent paths, such as Autism, ADHD, and Anxiety (release date TBA).
If you would like to continue (or simply begin) in a supportive community of other parents, as well as receiving additional resources and sessions from me, you are welcome to join the Skool community below:
