Parent pods
An innovation that is transforming the lives of children and parents nationwide.
The following statements were made by former Parent Pod attendees.
"It helped having an objective person to talk to! Sometimes you can feel pathetic sayng you just need 30 minutes on your own, but sometimes you just DO."
"Support from facilitators and group is great. I learned a lot about myself and others, I met some great people and hope we keep in touch"
"Parent Pods has given me the tools and education to make a better life for me & my family. The group support and encouragement has enabled me to satisfy my emotional needs."
"I became more confident and more sure about what I want to do in life and how to find things that will help me to achieve it."
"This group has helped me in a very positive way. Everyone is positive and supportive of one another's needs. I am not alone. I am not crazy, and my problems can be resolved."
New course starting Autumn 2011
It is becoming clear that many emotional difficulties that children experience in school and later life stem from a lack of parental knowledge about innate emotional needs. When parents do not have this understanding about themselves they cannot ensure that these needs are met in their own lives, let alone the lives of their children.
Without a reasonable degree of understanding about their own psychology and behaviour, parents struggle to provide the environment and parenting that their children need to flourish.
The Parent Pod human givens programme for parents is successfully addressing this problem and giving often difficult-to-reach parents genuine insight into their innate emotional needs and how these are connected to mental well-being, behaviour and the healthy development of their children, through recognising that their children have the same needs.
Based on sound human givens principles, and using fun activities and exercises, this programme has revealed a deep hunger for practical psychological knowledge among parents and showed how their awareness, self-esteem and confidence is improved dramatically by taking part. As such Parent Pod is also an extremely effective personal development programme, building capacity in individuals to take personal responsibility for fulfilling their potential.
