Family Storytelling Today
A Three-Session Workshop with Nancy Mellon
Sundays, November 3rd, 10th, 17th 1- 3pm CT
How do we nurture healthy closeness with children in our increasingly mechanized, fragmented world? Join us as we tap into story wisdom that warms and strengthens a hearty caring sense of family.
Discover how your conscious, committed storytelling presence can nurture the playful safety and coherence that children need in our present times.
This workshop is for you…
If phones, photos and videos fail to satisfy your feeling of family
You long for more fully present closeness and warmth of heartfelt communication
You want to find age-appropriate wisdom hidden in your family lore
