Cupcakes and Yoga - it’s all about balance!

Wellbeing sessions for parents of teenagers

Did you know that as parents of teenagers, our wellbeing can be negatively impacted? We may experience increased stress because there’s possibly a few more conflicts, not to mention worry!

BUT, while parenting teens can be demanding, it also offers opportunities for connection, as well as personal growth.

It’s all about balance, hey? And restoring some of the goodness back to our worlds as we can.

Cupcakes and Yoga offers just this - it’s a combo of talking about what we can do to care for our wellbeing (while eating cupcakes), followed by mindfulness and yoga. All of which you can copy and paste into your ordinary normal lives.
