Parenting from Center
A soul-centered journey to realign with your center, feel deeply grounded on your motherhood path and cultivate the relationship you're longing for.
Change is calling you...
Your relationship with your teen or young adult child is tense.
You're having the same old argument over and over. Or words barely pass between you.
You feel so much worry and frustration.
You feel out of step with yourself.
This isn't how you want to be parenting.
The reset you long for...
Transforming how you show up in your parenting.
Clearing out ingrained habits and reactions.
Embodying new grounding.
Connecting from a place of calm and clarity.
Feeling a wider sense of yourself as a mother.
Feeling more peace in your heart.
"This was an amazing experience and the personal growth I had feels permanent. I just wanted to be a calmer with my teens but I discovered a whole new part of myself. Lori was so attuned with where I am in this phase of motherhood and I could always feel her presence right beside me. I love the way I'm parenting now - and so do my kids. "
May H, Idaho
" I'm so proud of the work I did with Lori. I was so caught up in our pattern of distrust and blaming and I had no idea how to untangle it on my own. Lori's process was gentle, gradual, skilled and really tailored to who I am. I'm more at peace now, feeling this connection between my sacred role as a mother and how I communicate with my son each day."
MLK, Monterey Ca
Four Stages You'll Experience
1. Awakening
The journey begins with seeing, through clear lenses, the patterns that run through your body, your thoughts and your relationship, often without your full awareness - patterns that are making your choices for you, draining your energy, setting off your reactions with your teenager and creating divisive misunderstandings.
We build your awareness of these parts of you - they are the foundation for your growth - and awaken your momentum.
2. Clearing
Next is uprooting the conditional beliefs beneath those patterns. Not rehashing the past or judging yourself, but softening the inner voices that says things like,
-
As long as I do everything I can for them, no matter the cost to me, then I'll keep them safe.
-
As long as I anticipate everything that could possibly happen, then I will be able to do the right thing.
-
As long as I'm fun and agreeable, then I will be valued.
-
As long as I pretend that I don’t have needs, then I won’t upset them and push them farther away.
-
As long as I get them to meet their responsibilities and their potential, then I won’t look like a failure.
Here, you release beliefs that are no longer true and long-time habits that are no longer needed, and create space for your whole self. You lose the excess emotional weight you've been carrying - old ways of clenching, defending, shrinking, exploding or scrabbling for solid ground with them. You clear generational patterns, so you can give your kids a different inheritance.
3. Emergence
Now there is space for other aspects of you to emerge - qualities that have been curled up inside you, waiting.
You're no longer trying to stop what's happening, or run from it, or be overwhelmed by it, but aware of what the parenting moment is calling for and stepping forward.
You feel grounded and present in your Self and able to stay present with your young adult child.
Your voice becomes clearer, saying what you really mean, making requests and upholding your boundaries unapologetically. Your thoughts are more considered.
Your body becomes more balanced and you have room to breathe.
Your mothering wisdom pushes up into the light.
4. Embodiment
Steadiness is no longer something you have to reach for, it’s in you.
You parent naturally and knowingly.
You feel connected like never before.
Your light shines even brighter.
This is your new way of being their mother.

"Honestly, I was transformed. I learned how to embody my own breath and be patient and present. The change in me has changed so much between us. As I loosened my grip and stopped trying to control her, she started telling more about what she's thinking and feeling and what's actually going on in her life. Our hearts are softening and reconnecting."
Marthe, Norway
"I felt desperate for so long. I was living on high alert, always getting triggered by my daughter's anxiety and trying to fix everything for her - and failing at it. Now I know how to keep my mind and body calm when she panics, and that supports her in a much better way. When I'm calm, we understand each other so much better and that’s a huge relief."
Tami, New York
