Even though we may recognize the deep meaningfulness of illness for growth and development and for the strengthening of both child and caregiver, that is not to say that all illness processes are necessary or unavoidable. By fostering good health we can support greater balance and harmony without having to traverse every illness process ‘available’. As adults, we have to know how to perceive and evaluate the wellness or imbalance of our own system in order to support this development in the young child. By cultivating and deepening our own relationship to rest and to harmonizing therapeutic applications we can more potently facilitate these experiences for the young children in our care.

In addition to offerings on each workshop theme, the days will include a nourishing meal, the opportunity to both receive and learn how to offer therapeutic treatments at home and to gain familiarity with some home remedies. There will also be space for individual reflection, experiential exercises and group conversation. Each workshop will deepen and build upon the pre-reading Supporting Inner Freedom in the Young Child through Health and Illness (a lesson in the EduCareDo Early Childhood Course). While the workshops are aimed at supporting parents and caregivers in the home, the workshop content and experience will also be relevant for those interested in deepening their relationship to their own experiences of health and illness as well as those caring for other adults. The workshop content will unfold and adapt to meet the questions and interests of the participants. 

This day-long workshop is offered through Developing the Self Developing the World and is open to all. You can attend 1, 2 or all 3 workshops (other two workshops are Jan 19 (Working with Health and Illness at Home) and March 23 (Supporting Nourishment in Early Childhood).

All three workshops will take place at Sun Heart Farm in Stephentown, New York.
Childcare available on-site.

Mantles of Care - Warmth and Enfoldment
Feb
17
to Mar 20

Mantles of Care - Warmth and Enfoldment

Mantles of Care Workshop Retreat
Warmth and Enfoldment
Monday - Thursday
9am-3pm

Across this 4-day workshop, adults who are parenting or educating primary school children are provided experiences of mantles of care, time to create care items with wool and silk for a family or classroom kit, and principles towards understanding and supporting health.

The workshop complements the Developing the Self Developing the World Mantles of Care Program in classrooms aimed at supporting a culture of caring for self and others. We work with educators and children to refine daily hygiene practices for harmonising the ability to be attentive, self regulate and maintain healthy relationships.

Extended tutoring is available for class teachers to apply mantles of care in the classroom to support learning enrichment for individual students or towards bringing mantles of care to class groups within a curriculum.

4 Days : US$475/person

Includes quality care items for a care kit,
homemade morning tea and lunch

Please direct questions to Developing the Self Developing the World
