Nature or Nurture? Where did my personality come from? The relationship of temperament to personality in your developing children. How understanding this connection can support parents in managing their own expectations and support their children in flourishing to be the best they can be.
During this workshop we will unpack the different temperament styles, as described by the researchers Thomas & Chess and see how they relate to the 9 Enneagram Types. Participants will learn how a child's brain develop and the relationship to emerging personality. They will discover the importance of not labelling or typing their children too early and how to understand the needs of each of the nine types that their child may be developing into and how to bring out the best of each.
Participants will leave with a greater understanding and a feeling of competence around supporting their children in thriving into the best versions of themselves.
