Challenges & Solutions

Raising a daughter in today’s world feels more complex than ever. You want to raise her to be confident and strong, but you also worry about the pressures she faces—from friendships and social media to a culture that’s constantly sending mixed messages about her worth.  You want to be her guide, her soft place to land, but sometimes it feels like you’re speaking a different language.

What if the secret to navigating it all isn’t a list of rules, but the strength of your connection with her?

This workshop is about becoming the calm, confident guide your daughter needs. We’ll explore how your secure and loving relationship can be the anchor that holds her steady through the stormy seas of growing up. We start from a simple, powerful belief: deep down, your daughter is good, and her behavior is just her way of communicating what she needs. Our job is to listen underneath the words.

You are your daughter’s most important relationship. Join Peace at Home Experts Tanika Eaves, PhD, LCSW, IMH-E®, and Aaron Weintraub, MS, to learn how to strengthen that connection and become the secure anchor she can count on, no matter what challenges come her way.

Raising Resilient and Connected Sons: A Workshop for Building a Bond That Lasts

Challenges & Solutions

Raising boys is a journey filled with beautiful chaos. It’s the boundless energy, the muddy sneakers, the unexpected tenderness, and the big, stormy feelings that can leave you wondering if you’re getting any of this right. You see the good kid you know is in there, but sometimes it gets lost behind a wall of defiance, a sudden outburst, or the frustrating silence of a slammed door.

You’re not alone. In a world full of noise and distractions, it’s easy to feel like you’re losing your influence. You might be asking yourself:

  • How do I handle his endless energy and aggression without crushing his spirit?
  • How can I get him to listen without yelling, threatening, or giving in?
  • How do I stay his most trusted guide when the pull of his friends gets stronger every day?

This workshop isn’t about finding the perfect technique to control behavior. It’s about something much deeper and more powerful: strengthening your connection. Because when your bond is secure, everything else gets easier. You become the safe harbor he can always return to, no matter how stormy the seas get.

Join Peace at Home Experts Aaron Weintraub, MS and Amy Alamar, Ed.D. as they share proven strategies and tools you can use every day to create connection and nurture resilient young men.  We look forward to hearing your stories and challenges and coming together to share the journey.  If you have a specific question or topic you’d like to share with Aaron and Amy ahead of time, please email Solutions@peaceathomeparenting.com.

The Power of Mindful Parenting to Transform Family Stress

November 07, 2024 12:00 pm EDT/EST
Take This Workshop

Expert

Peace At Home Parenting Expert Na Zhang Na Zhang,PhD, MEd

Challenges & Solutions

Mindful practice deepens our awareness and helps us act wisely as parents, even in stressful times. When we bring kindness and present-moment attention to ourselves and our relationships with our child(ren), we can see and accept our own imperfections and our past experiences (even the painful ones). This helps us support our children with more awareness and connection. 

Mindful parenting is an inner practice that can be simply embedded in our daily life and is waiting for you to discover. You will learn how scientists have defined and studied mindful parenting. This new research explores the relationships between parents’ mindfulness and children’s well-being. This area of study also teaches us about best practices in everyday parenting. You will hear some of the most recent findings on the positive effects of mindfulness on our psychological and physical wellbeing, especially how mindfulness may affect our stress physiology. You will also gain mindfulness techniques you can use in everyday parenting.
