SUMMARY:💲SPECIAL SALE!💲🆕 More than a Personality Test: How to Work Mindfully with Enneagram 🆕
DESCRIPTION:💲Last-Minute Deal! $50 Off!💲\nBRAND-NEW!\nHealth Equity or Cultural Competence CEs\nMore than a Personality Test: How to Work Mindfully with Enneagram\nPresented by: Dr. Jennifer Manlowe\nWhen: Thursday\, June 11th\, 2026 | 9:00 am – 4:30 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live via Zoom (you’ll receive the link the week of the workshop)\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 6 CEs – 2 Meet Health Equity or Cultural Competence Requirements | Cost: $199.00 NOW ONLY $149.00! \nThis continuing education workshop weaves mindfulness practice and Enneagram wisdom to help clinicians recognize how personality patterns emerge as adaptive responses to suffering. Through meditation\, inquiry\, and embodied awareness\, participants learn how to work skillfully with shame\, fixation\, and reactivity—supporting clients with complex PTSD in moving from defensive patterning toward grounded presence and self-compassion. \nWORKSHOP OBJECTIVES:\nBy the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to see: \n\nA framing of Enneagram as a map of psycho-social conditioning— not as a typology to label clients\, but as a lens on how trauma crystallizes around core fears and strategies.\nTools to use mindfulness and meditation practices as nervous-system support— practices that cultivate tolerance for experience rather than bypass it.\nWorking with manifestations of shame as central to therapy— how each type organizes around avoiding a specific wound\, and how mindfulness softens that structure.\nEmbodiment and gentleness— aligning with somatic psychotherapy by staying close to lived\, felt experience rather than abstract insight.\nLearning how to help our clients move from fixation to freedom— reframing personality not as pathology\, but as a doorway to awakening.\n\nThe tone of this workshop is non-pathologizing and invitational—less about technique and more about cultivating our own therapeutic presence as the primary healing field. Attendees will experience a workshop that is: \n\nExperiential rather than overly theoretical\nFocused on befriending rather than fixing\nEmphasizing compassion\, specificity\, and curiosity\nFraming the Enneagram as a map of ego survival strategies that can be met with mindfulness awareness\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n

There will come a time when you are ready to stop working\, and retirement has several issues you must address before you can retire… And there might come a time when circumstances beyond your control – death\, disability\, illness\, incapacity\, and/or caregiving – will prohibit you from continuing. \nYou will do yourself and your family a service by planning for this in advance. We will discuss therapeutic issues\, notification\, records\, liability\, creating a professional will\, and identifying a professional executor. We will also discuss whether or not you are financially prepared for retirement. Substantial handouts and resources are provided so you can focus on the discussions without spending all your time taking notes. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n• Understanding therapeutic aspects of preparing for retirement. \n• Preparing a Professional Will and identifying a Professional Executor. \n• Understanding your obligations for notification and access to your records. \n• Preparing for the Unexpected – what happens if you were to die or become incapacitated? \n• Your personal finances in preparation for retirement. \nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Ethics of Simple Self-Care in Nature – Day 2
DESCRIPTION:Law & Ethics CEs!\nEthics of Simple Self-Care in Nature – Day 2\nPresented by: Dr. Brenda Butterfield\, EdD\, MSW\, LMHC \nWhen: Friday\, June 5th\, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM\, Pacific Time\nWhere: Live in person at the ONE Center (7400 Gallagher Cove Road NW\, Olympia\, WA 98502)\nLodging Information: If you’d like to come the night before or stay over on Friday night after the workshop\, you can explore the lodging options provided by the ONE Center here. For questions about lodging\, please email the ONE Center at ournewexperiences@gmail.com\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 6 Law & Ethics CEs | $199.00\nThis workshop is also offered on Friday\, October 2nd\, 2026. MORE INFO & TO REGISTER >>>\nAre you ready to come back to ONE for your annual Self-Care Check-Up? Just like an annual physical exam\, on this day\, you can check in with “the Doctor” to reassess your health and well-being\, assess progress toward goals\, and discuss challenges along the way. Except in this scenario\, you are the “Doctor!” Come\, step off the busy treadmill of life to pause\, drop in\, and check in with yourself while earning 6 ethics credits! \nLike Ethics of Simple Self-Care in Nature Day 1\, this workshop is retreat-style\, nature-based\, and very experiential. In our welcoming circle\, we’ll begin the day by connecting\, building community\, and savoring the good company of colleagues.  We’ll take time to complete the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQOL) and the Professional Self-Care Assessment during the annual checkup. Bring your assessment measures from the Day 1 workshop\, or no worries if you don’t have them. Trust your inner guide to know where you’ve been and where you are now. \nThroughout the day\, we’ll spend time in community and on our own as we sit spot on the land and by the water\, resting in awareness and writing reflectively. We’ll explore new\, simple self-care practices from nature therapy and mindful self-compassion. All practices are evidence-based ways to activate the parasympathetic nervous system anytime\, anyplace. All can be shared with clients to support their health and well-being.  We’ll revisit research explaining why self-care is essential for health care providers and take a deeper dive into the ethics of practicing self-care through the collaborative Practice of Council around the campfire. We’ll discuss our own biases\, real-life challenges\, values & beliefs\, and find ways to acknowledge\, support\, and problem-solve together. \nSelf-care can be quite simple but seldom easy\, especially when caring for others.  Self-care is living mindfully.  It requires ongoing intention and attention to skill building\, giving and receiving support\, and holding oneself accountable. We hope you answer the call this season of care and come back for your Self Care Check Up at ONE. You’ll be in the good company of colleagues\, supported by the healing power of nature. \nWORKSHOP OBJECTIVES:\n\nReassess your compassion satisfaction\, burnout\, and secondary traumatic stress.\nReassess your current self-care across 5 life domains.\nExplore experientially a variety of ways to practice simple self-care\nIdentify lifestyle choices that are supporting or undermining your health and well-being.\nRevisit research correlating clinician health and well-being to treatment outcomes for clients.\nRevisit ethical implications for practicing/not practicing self-care.\nRefine your realistic action plan for improved self-care\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n
