Mum's Retreat
Mum's Retreat
Three years ago, NSTE launched a new initiative: the first ever “Mums’ Retreat”—a one day or overnight retreat for mums of kids under 13 years old. The retreat, held each year since, in a beautiful setting at Wisemans Ferry, features Jewish parenting workshops and deep relaxation sessions led by Rabbi Nicole and other professional practitioners. Sessions have included:
- Achieving Work-life or Family-life Balance
- Strengths Spotting - Playing to Your Strengths
- An innovative and restorative Yoga Service
- Adult Conversations About Children’s Spiritual Questions
- The Spirituality of Parenting
- Sacred Separations, Sacred Boundaries
- Creating a Healthy Relationship to Food
- A beautiful Havdalah ceremony and closing ritual
- Sound Healing with “Singing Bowls”
- “Angels” Meditation/Deep Relaxation based on the Bedtime Shema
During the retreat, participants also enjoy free time to socialise with other mums (without interruption!), go for a walk by the riverside, browse through our library of parenting books, chat with Rabbi Nicole, have a massage, or just enjoy some rare quiet time. All meals are tended to. Nurture Yourself - For a Change.
Contact Rabbi Nicole to learn more.
