This week continues on the theme of Love. Using the 5 ways that we experience love, work out what your preferred way is.

Ideally your partner can focus on topping up your love tank and you can focus on theirs. 

If you don't have a partner, focus on topping up your own love tank.

What feels nice?

How can you care for you this week with kind words, loving touch, asking for help etc ?

The beauty of understanding what you and your partner need to feel loved, is you can more easily meet that need, helping nurture those pleasurable feelings. When we feel filled up with love, it's easier to navigate the challenges of parenting.

Your tasks this week are:

• Find out what your partners dominant love language is.
• To top up their love tank, or yours if you don't have a partner with that dominant love language.
• Share how you get on in the Facebook group.

If you have more than one child start with the one who is currently the most challenging.

This week is an opportunity to review and consolidate the skills you have learnt so far. 

The beauty of understanding what your child needs to feel loved, is you can more easily meet that need, helping nurture those pleasurable feelings. When our children feel filled up with love the less desirable behaviour reduces. 

Your tasks this week are:

• Review the skills you have learned so far
• Choose which skills you will focus on this week that will have the biggest impact on that one thing you want to change right now.
• Practice using this 1 or 2 skills to gain more fluency with it/them.

If you have more than one child start with the one who is currently the most challenging.

This week we are helping our children with ways they have be independent and learn from their own mistakes. 

You will learn 6 skills that support their autonomy, and different ways you can avoid saying "No".

Useful skills for avoiding escalation with children who particularly react to the word No.

In this session you will learn how to praise your child in a way that encourages them to praise themselves.

It boosts self esteem & helps them to be more intrinsically motivated rather that seeking approval from outside of themselves. 

They build confidence in who they are & their capabilities, & you become confident in reaching your child with your positive words. It links really well with words of affirmation part of the love languages.

This session is all about reviewing your journey & getting clear on your next steps.
