Feeling stressed and overwhelmed with everything?
You are not alone. With a load of priorities on hand, learning to cope and juggle isn’t exactly easy, and many parents feel the same way as you do. While it is normal to feel that you are not a perfect parent to your kid, stress can only be helpful if you use it to grow.
Seek support and learn some coping strategies with our parenting Therapeutic Art workshop now. The aim of our workshop is to facilitate the emotional well-being of parents – where you will learn to better manage stressful situations, your emotions as well as kids through the use of art. Acting as a healing and relaxing medium, art provides a platform for you to showcase the expressions of your emotions and stories. Through this workshop, you will also learn how to react positively to life’s stresses and engage in positive parenting behaviour for your kids.
