“Live In Fragments No Longer: Only Connect.” A Timely Webinar for Parents

Wed, Apr 29, 2020 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM 

One of our deepest needs as human beings is for connection: to feel known, to feel understood, and to feel recognized and valued for who we are. However, in the social distancing culture of Covid-19, our experiences of – and opportunities for – human connection have not only become “fragmented,” but in too many circumstances, they have totally discontinued. For many individuals around the world, social distancing has led to unbearable states of disconnection, and thereby, to associated feelings of fear, loneliness, anxiety and depression. In this interactive webinar, parents will learn more about their children’s and their own instinctive emotional responses to Covid-19; will have an opportunity to ask questions regarding how to offset those involuntary emotional responses and about how to care for their children and for themselves; will be invited to share from their own parenting experiences, and most importantly, will be able to “connect” with other parents for mutual support.
