Simplicity Parenting with Mary VG

Specialties

The Simplicity Parenting Workshop with certified facilitator Mary VG is based on the book, Simplicity Parenting, Using the Extraordinary Power of Less to Raise Calmer, Happier, and More Secure Kids by Kim John Payne.

7 weekly gatherings (2 hours each) provide a multi-​layered, systems approach, combined with group discussion, to equip parents to check-​in with their own values, to simplify the home environment, increase rhythms that facilitate connection and peace, balance the schedule and filter out adult content. Together, we will gather the tools needed to initiate small do-​able changes.

And when we simplify children’s lives, children become

* calmer, happier and more cooperative

* better listeners who function better socially and emotionally

* more focused at school

Cost is $ 195 for the series. Class size is limited to 10.

History

Established in 2012.

While attending the Maple Village Waldorf School for mommy & me classes during her children’s preschool years, Mary was invited to a lecture by Kim John Payne in Malibu, which set her on the lifelong path to simplicity. Inspired by the impact this practice has made on her family, Mary is passionate about supporting other families in the Long Beach and Orange County area by giving them an alternative to the «More! Faster! Now!» messages pervasive in Southern California.
