“Taking Tony and Ruth’s Course for Parents was one of the best things I have ever done for me, my family and our home. The gentle and professional way they work together with you is fantastic. The combination of both of their experience and guidance was something that was so powerful and unique. They showed me easy and effective techniques that helped me relax in a way I never experienced before. The feeling of having a quiet mind and feeling well all the time is something I had never imagined possible. This had such a good effect on my 2 children who are happier, calmer and more confident as well as actually doing what was asked of them. It changed our home in such a positive way. In this particularly challenging time these techniques have also helped with work making me more resilient and focused. The group sessions worked so well online. I learned so much from others and how they experienced things in their life and the recommendations Tony and Ruth made. I would highly recommend this course if you want to feel well and make a life changing impact on your family, home and work life.”

Parents Under Pressure!
Our online wellbeing course was created in response to our clients asking for help! It’s been great to watch people make big positive changes in what seemed to some, impossible situations.
Since the start of Covid most parents have struggled to keep a healthy life balance.
Many parents we see are stressed out, overwhelmed and are juggling too much, with little or no time for themselves. They don’t have enough down time and tension is increasing in the home.
As a result of this intense atmosphere, children are struggling – and their behaviour is reflecting this.
Children are irritable, fighty(!), depressed, annoying and clingy.
It has never been more important for parents to learn to manage themselves and how to diffuse stress in the home and create a balanced safe space for children.
The course runs over 6 weeks. Each week you learn a technique to practice and report back on.
We will send you audio files and other documents to help each week.
Q&A
Every family has a unique dynamic. But we all have common problems! Based on both our experience working with parents and in Tony’s case with children, you will get answers to any question you may have around child behaviour or dynamics in the house. Tony has a deeply intuitive read of children of all ages and in the Q&A part of the course we explore the adjustments you can make to improve things in your home. So, have your questions ready! The benefits of this course will last a lifetime as you learn the tools to feel well in yourself and make lasting changes in your family life.
You will learn...
- How to set up a baseline of calmness each day at home and build it up
- How to understand and balance your own family’s dynamics.
- How to maintain healthy emotional boundaries to keep yourself happy.

Ruth and I have been in the ‘wellness world’ for over 20 years. We have had our own ups and downs and our own kids have taught us the hard way! We have our own private therapy practices. Ruth is a Reflexologist and Reiki Master and teaches Yoga to Moms.
I work with kids and adults with anxiety. We have been working with parents for many years and it is from this work as well as having our own kids that we have learned how to apply all of the skills in the course. We absolutely love doing these courses. Humour is the best medicine and we bring that in spades!

What parents have said about this course.
“Hi Tony,
Just wanted to say thank you. I have been having a great week because of the good advice I have been getting!! Your advice ‘the only thing you can control is yourself ‘ has finally sunk in with me and I have seen results this week. I am feeling better and all the time. My family is calmer. We’re not yet the Brady Bunch but at least we are no longer the Lannisters from the Game of thrones. See you tomorrow night.”
Claire,
