I can see the tears running down your face. I can see the anger in you eyes. I can see how you grit your teeth with rage and I swear that in my heart I feel the same pain as you do. Maybe even greater. I don’t know. It’s just that I have no idea how to talk to you about stuff like this.
Every time you shout at me: You don’t understand me, you don’t get it… If only you knew how unhappy I am.
I feel my heart ache, I can’t breathe properly… My girl, I know! I used to be young as well. I, too, got disappointed and hurt by life, friends… I just don’t know how to share my experience with you in a way that would help you. I don’t know how to talk about such important things with you. I thought I knew, but now I see that you didn’t understand me in the way that I intended. I am ashamed and afraid and clueless.
What I know is that I love you so much and that I don’t want to leave things like this. I don’t want misunderstandings like this to repeat. I want to be there for you till the end of my days.
I love you,
Mom
My dearest Mom. You know when I shouted at you yesterday, I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just that I have this feeling that you don’t understand me and that I can’t talk to you about such stuff at all. You don’t see me and you don’t hear what I need. I don’t know if you even love me. And I love you and need you so much. I need to talk to you about stuff, more that I like to admit to myself, but it seems impossible when you don’t want to talk about anything with me.
I wish so much for things to be like they used to when I was little and bruised my knee and you always kissed it better and then kissed me. I love you and I want to tell you all this, I just don’t know how.
I love you,
Your daughter
This workshop is suitable for all daughters and mothers.
You can participate with more than one daughter or as a multigenerational group.
Minimum age required is 8 years.
TBD
You will learn to listen to each other and communicate with respect to the other’s emotions and feelings.
You will become aware of your family patterns and burdens and learn how to approach them, tackle them and set yourself and your daughter(s) free from them.
You will get support and a safe space to communicate about difficult topics that you struggle to approach and that introduce emotional negativity into your relationship.
We will laugh, dance, relax, take care of ourselves and deepen bonds with our closest ones. With a part of ourselves that lives a different life of her own, but by doing so she inevitably influences our lives. If we want it or not :o)
The price is 2250 NOK for a mother with a daughter and 500 NOK for any additional participant – another daughter or a grandmother, because grandmothers are mothers, too.
