DESCRIPTION 

The Awakened Parent Co-op Exploration class offers the perfect experiential learning space for parents to get the support needed as they move through the Awakened Parenting education, with their children. Our goal is to allow children and parents to feel safe to explore the essence of who they are, as this gives them the ability to build cooperative relationships, and brings true health. Our morning is spent engaged in our Mindful, Conscious, and Ecological curriculum with the Awakened Method supporting and facilitating how the environment is held. This gives practical experiences with utilizing what is being learned in the parent education classes. Space is held without judgment and opens the deeping fields of what it means to be a parent in a community setting. Parents do rotate between being lead and assist.

9:30-10:00 am – Gathering, morning Chores; cutting vegetables, watering the garden, self and community exploration.
