Enneagram Class: The Value of Values

DATE: Wednesday, June 26, 2019
TIME: 
 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.
COST: A $10.00 donation is requested, or any amount that meets your means.
LOCATION: The Conference Center at Tucson Osteopathic Medical Foundation Building
3182 N. Swan Road, Tucson, AZ  85712

This Month’s Topic: The Value of Values.  Values are the guiding principles by which we live or, at least, they are aspirations that help us align our actions with our principles. Without values, we would be living in an immoral or amoral world of interpersonal confusion and existential chaos. At the same time, too strong an adherence to our values can create a counter-effect of personal and interpersonal difficulties. And too strong an identification with these values rigidly retains our type structures in place, thus inhibiting our growth potential. Please join us for a very interactive session, including a “panel of Type experts” from whom you’ll learn even more about the cherished values of each Enneagram style.

This Month’s Teacher: Sandy Hogan, PCC. Accredited Enneagram Professional through the IEA, Certified Enneagram in Business Coach, and Co-founder of the Enneagram Enthusiasts group that’s been active since 2011. Sandy is a Professional Certified Coach and Certified Integral Coach in private practice since 2000. She works with individuals, teams and organizations, using the wisdom of the Enneagram with each client as the basis for successful outcomes in their customized coaching programs.

Enneagram Meeting: The Idealized Self-Image

DATE: Wednesday, May 22, 2019
TIME: 
 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.
COST: A $10.00 donation is requested (or any amount that meets your means), to cover room rent and materials,
LOCATION: The Conference Center at Tucson Osteopathic Medical Foundation Building
3182 N. Swan Road, Tucson, AZ  85712. Near the corner of Swan and Camp Lowell, in the SE Corner of Village Offices entrance.

This Month’s Topic:

We begin life with a pretty solid sense of what we value – even if not in so many words. Then, life happens… and we learn to avoid things that hurt, defend ourselves against unpleasant circumstances (and people!), and we settle for a version of ourselves which is more like a smudged mimeograph copy than an original.

In this session, we will identify our Idealized self-images, explore the impact that staying there has on our life and relationships, restricting and compromising our healthy self. How we tend to use these as our “mission statement” urging others to “see the light” and be more like us. This awareness is crucial to relaxing these concepts and returning to our healthier self.

See you there!

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC:  Spiritual Jump Starts – Connecting to Ourselves, Others, and God and the Universe 

What spiritual methods work best for you? There are many ways to cultivate our spiritual awareness and learn to work with our inner observer. But what would be most effective for you? We all get caught up in our type-specific problems and certain practices may be more helpful than others, depending on our type. Spotting our blind spots is the first action, but then what are ways in which we can let go and begin to create a new habit or option to how we respond to life’s difficulties? Come explore ways to travel your spiritual path.

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC: The Enneagram and Intimacy, Part II   

(Not to worry, you needn’t have attended Part I – they’re stand-alone topics) 

All forms of intimacy definitely play a part in the complicated mind-body connection that helps people cope better and improve their quality of life.  It is now well-accepted that people who have close, supportive relationships with others are generally healthier, both physically and emotionally, and cope better with stress. People who have low levels of intimacy are prone to higher levels of emotional disturbance, especially when they experience many negative life-changing events or few positive ones. It has been proven that life-affirming relationships and interactions undeniably have a positive effect on our overall health and happiness.

Please join us for a lively and interactive session in which we’ll explore how our Enneagram subtype/instinctual variant might be at play in establishing and maintaining healthy levels of intimacy in both personal and professional relationships in which we can feel emotionally safe and free, supported, valued, and respected.

Enneagram Class: The Wisdom of the Wings

DATE: December 12, 2018

TIME: 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

LOCATION: Tucson Osteopathic Medical Foundation, 3182 N. Swan Rd., Tucson, AZ 85712

COST: Suggested donation $10

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC:  The Wisdom of the Wings – Come Fly with Me

The Enneagram styles that reside on either side of our home style, are commonly known as “wings.”  Some Enneagram teachers teach that we have one wing, some two, others dismiss the theory completely.

In this session, we will explore some interesting perspectives on our wing neighbors.  We can be supported by the strength that lies within our wings. We can also be tossed around by the shadow stuff we have stored there.  This session will discover how we are held in the stretch between our wings:

  1. How our wings define the clockwise and counter-clockwise edges of who and how we are.
  2. How we get “stuck” in one way of coping – when there is so much more we can access.

We will look in both directions and move about the symbol to experience the sense of potentials and possibilities.  Since each style sets up the next, our wings are interacting with us and our neighbors one or more styles away.

Two wings are necessary to take off. To soar. To land. This session will help us identify the strengths of our wings and learn to access those strengths for “ease of flight.”

TIME:  6:30 – 8:30 p.m.

COST: Because our room rental fees have increased, a $10.00 donation is requested, or any amount that meets your means

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC:  What Gets in the Way on Our Journey to Wholeness?

The Enneagram teachings allow us to access patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving for each of our types. Oftentimes, these deeply-held patterns which have been formed early in life become our sole strategy to manage our existence. As we attempt to grow and change, we may recognize that these patterns seem to keep us stuck. During this session, we will examine how each type has distinct patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving that get in the way on our journey to wellness.

PRESENTER:   Renee SiegelMA, LISAC, MAC, ICGC-II, BACC, LMT, HHP, Accredited Enneagram Professional. Renee will be our special guest speaker from Phoenix this month. She is a past board member of the Arizona Enneagram Association who believes that “partnering with you in wellness” is what works to empower those seeking change!

She maintains a small private practice, teaches around the world and has just launched Pure Potential Retreats for women.
