Big Feelings, Small Bodies – Emotional Maturation Series

As we open the New Year, we’re happy to offer expat families a well-being and conscious parenting workshop, led by integral counselor and emotional maturation specialist Eszter Saródy, offering a warm, supportive space for expat mothers of 0–3 year-olds to explore the emotional layers of early motherhood abroad. As a mother of three who once navigated the challenges of being an isolated expat parent without family support, Eszter brings both professional expertise and lived understanding.

Together we will unpack the Expat Motherhood Paradox—how we appear resilient on the outside while carrying loneliness, overwhelm, cultural disconnection, and pressure on the inside. Through experiential practices—including attunement exercises, circle dialogue, emotional expression mapping, and somatic co-regulation tools—mothers will learn to:

• understand their child’s early emotional cues,
• respond with confidence and calm,
• support secure attachment without losing themselves.

The workshop reframes crying, clinginess, and big feelings as communication rather than problems, helping mothers see behaviour through a compassionate, developmental lens.

Esther will support you in:

• reducing guilt and self-pressure,
• strengthening co-regulation,
• understanding how emotions work in both mother and baby,
• reconnecting with your intuition.

We’ll end with a grounding reflection and shared group moment to integrate insights and build community.

Join us to feel supported, understood, and more connected—to your child, and to yourself—within a circle of fellow expat moms.

The number of places is limited – register via the red button above. Please include in the comments, how many children and of what age(s) will come with you. We do have baby nursing and changing facilities available.

If you come by car, the nearest parking area is by the Grand Hotel – from there it’s just a 7-minute walk.
