“In the past, I have argued with my husband about parenting ‘till I was blue. I offered things for him to read, but nothing was as effective as this weekend’s workshop. I, too, saw the light on so many things that I wouldn’t have without seeing and hearing Naomi Aldort in the flesh. You cannot know what great impact this has had on our family and on the greatness that we will become.”

Raising Our Children Raising Ourselves

What is the workshop about?

The R.O.C.R.O.S. workshop (including the advanced course) is a deep and freeing experience of awakening to your own parental wisdom and inner peace. Most of us were given too many messages that we should be other than who we are which in turn is obstructing our clear view of our children and eroding our parental confidence. This course is about regaining your connection to yourself and through it your clear ability to see your child and therefore be able to create a space that allows her/him to optimize himself not in your shadow, but in his/her own light.

The child receives from us many messages we do not intend to give her/him. When we think we are teaching good behavior, responsibility, or learning habits, another message is so much louder. The messages the child is likely to perceive instead, are often those of, “Be other than who or how you are,” “You are not all right,” ”You are not loved or not enough,” and “You must change,” or ”Life is a struggle,” causing resistance, defiance, stress, anxiety, aggression, family discord, sleep and learning issues and even sickness.

In this workshop, you will transform your emotional state of being, so your children can stay true to themselves. You will master the ability to convey messages that empower and inspire and watch your child flourish and cooperate as a result of feeling right about him/herself.

We will use dialogue, individual emotional processes, drama, pair, and small group exercises, and deep inquiry into what is actually true and liberating (using The work of Byron Katie combined with my SALVE formula, Dr. Virgina Satir’s people-making dramatizing, and more. I will also provide direct instructions with tools and skill-building strategies, healing family games, and lots of in-depth answers to your questions.

Raising Our Children Raising Ourselves

Who can benefit from R.O.C.R.O.S?

The parents who participate in this workshop are extraordinary people. They are often the parents who do not follow in the footsteps of their own upbringing but instead are blazing a new trail in childrearing. Whether you have serious problems, or simply wish to do the best and find where you can learn more, you will benefit from this life-expanding

and radical departure from the normative shaping of children. If you think you have nothing to learn, I invite to contribute your wisdom to others, but also to come and discover what you are blind to.

What you will learn in this workshop is not so many new tricks (although that too will be plentiful), but rather what you don’t know that you don’t know – which is where all regrets live.

We will shift the paradigm from controlling to discovering. We will dissect and learn from every issue you bring up; from birth and breastfeeding, tantrums or sleepless nights, to behavior, social issues, attachment, aggression in children, teenagers, siblings, relatives, marriage, social needs of children, sharing, praise, education, homeschooling, gadgets/media, your own issues, fears and anxieties, obsessions, special needs, talent, discipline, emotions, bedtime, cooperation without punishment, health…gender equality, and much more.

Participants are not parents who are doing something wrong, but rather those who are looking for better ways to raise emotionally resilient, powerful, peaceful and loving humans. They are often the parents who already are committed to respect, trust, and love. They dare to ask questions, to doubt, and, to recognize their own weaknesses and emotional reactions that get in the way. This workshop is about learning to bypass your reactions and return to love in each moment with each child.
