Testimonial from past participant:
"Dr Kostenuik’s mindful parenting course has been helpful on so many levels. Not only did I learn how to become a better, more mindful, parent, I also gained further understanding of multiple aspects of human emotion and behaviour.
Her simple approach, with practical tools, has helped on the personal level but also with all my human interactions. I have seen results in a very short period of time and I highly recommend her course!"
