Low Income | Restoring You | Mindful Parenting Workshop Series

from Β£22.00

A three-part workshop series for parents, by The Mindful Parent Hub

What to expect

Each 90-minute session weaves together therapeutic art-making, a guest speaker from the wellbeing community, and honest group conversation. You'll leave with a workbook and art journal pack to continue your practice between sessions.

No art experience or skills needed β€” just a willingness to show up for yourself.

A three-part workshop series for parents, by The Mindful Parent Hub

If you’ve been feeling stretched, disconnected from yourself, or unsure how to meet your own needs alongside parenting β€” you are not alone.

Restoring You is a nurturing three-part workshop series designed to help parents reconnect with themselves, clarify what truly matters, and build gentle, sustainable ways to feel more grounded and supported.

Held at the Good Shepherd Studios, each Wednesday morning session offers a calm and welcoming space where you can pause, reflect, and begin to restore your energy and sense of self.

This is part of a three-session series. You're welcome to join individual sessions, but we recommend attending all three for the full experience.' Like you have on 17th. I like the 8th where you said we will be back with more- maybe add to follow us on instagram to keep up to date?

The Sessions

Session 1 β€” Values + Compass Mapping

Wednesday 10 June · 11.45am–1.15pm

Your values shape everything β€” from the boundaries you set to the decisions you make as a parent.

In this session, we’ll explore what truly matters to you and how your core values act as a compass in family life. Through guided reflection and creative practice, you’ll identify and prioritise your key values, helping you move towards a more intentional and aligned way of parenting.

Session 2 β€” Needs + Self-Connection

Wednesday 17 June · 11.45am–1.15pm

When was the last time you paused to consider your own needs?

This session creates space to reconnect with yourself beyond your parenting role. We’ll explore the difference between wants and needs, how to recognise both your personal and parenting needs, and why honouring them is essential for avoiding burnout and creating healthier boundaries.

Session 3 β€” Overcoming Guilt + Self-Compassion Practice

Wednesday 8 July · 11.45am–1.15pm


β€œI’ve got it wrong again.”

Parenting guilt can be loud, persistent, and hard to shake β€” often showing up after moments we wish we’d handled differently, or in the pressure to be the β€œperfect” parent.

Whether you’re parenting solo, co-parenting, or sharing the load with a partner, unspoken guilt can quietly impact your relationships and your sense of self. When it isn’t communicated, it can build into self-doubt, tension, or disconnection.

In this session, we’ll explore where guilt comes from and how to respond to it differently β€” learning to express what you’re feeling with clarity and conviction, without shame or blame.

Through guided discussion and a creative self-compassion practice, you’ll begin to soften your inner voice and move forward with more honesty, confidence, and self-trust.

What's included in all three sessions:

  • Three guided creative workshops

  • Workbook and art journal pack when all 3 workshops are booked together

  • Guest speaker from the wellbeing community

  • Refreshments

Where:

Good Shepherd Studios, Leytonstone

Book your place:

Spaces are limited.

If childcare is an issue not to worry, young children are welcome.

Please note these are a limited supply of low income tickets and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer.

Acknowledging and addressing parental burnout is essential, and it's heartening to hear about the supportive and honest environment you've created.

Looking forward to seeing the positive impact this will have!" β€” Dr Sunil Kumar, Lifestyle Medicine Physician
