Coping With Mixed Feelings Workshop

I should be happy / loving / grateful all the time, but I am not. Sometimes I hate this and how I react.

This workshop looks at Maternal Ambivalence and helps normalise some of the complex conflicting emotions you can have as a mother / parent.

We will touch upon how emotions act as signposts (e.g. anger can indicate unmet needs). Exploring ways we can ground ourselves and regulate our emotions.

This workshop will enable you to:

Recognise that conflicting emotions are normal
Develop ways to regulate your emotional reactions when you feel overwhelmed
Repair with your child (and yourself) when you react and want to start over
Reframe 'negative' emotions as information about things we might want to change

What you'll get:

Workshop recording (2 hours)
Includes a mix of theoretical content, self reflection exercises and group discussion
Split into 4 modules for ease of viewing (like a mini course)
Learning journal to accompany workshop

What People Are Saying:

There were so many 'aha' moments in all honesty. Exploring the shame-isolation-burnout cycle in relation to the idea of being a perfect mother really resonated with me. It allowed me to see how easy it is to stay trapped in that cycle, never feeling like enough however the concept of being 'good enough' alongside being compassionate to myself, feel like great methods to try to improve the levels of exhaustion, burnout and anxiety I have been feeling.

It’s just so beautiful to come along somewhere to a group of women who are sharing similar struggles, and a facilitator who has a lot of wisdom and helpful ways of thinking and holding space for you to actually just sit in reflection for a bit and really start to feel warm fuzzies from the inside rather than the constant going and doing and going and doing.

Ali is so caring and engaged and yet also very real and approachable and funny! There's no floaty new age nonsense or unachievable zen-mastery here, just well thought through, evidence based and truly inspirational content delivered by a mum who knows what mums go through.

Laura

Working with Ali has helped me identify parts of my inner self that have been neglected or overlooked, that deserve to be explored and nourished.

Lauren

The workshop was so helpful. It made me realise I'm not alone in feeling this way and it helped me to understand the changes I've gone through since having my baby.

Ali has a way of making you feel so understood! I came away feeling like a weight had been lifted.
