that exists (except the Enneagram popular version) has an internally focused organization\u2013\u2013that is, a view of how the internal architecture of mental functioning, not just behavior, is organized across developmental periods.\u201d Learning\u00a0an Essential Wholeness approach to the nine Enneagram temperaments provides you with:<\/p><ul><li>a powerful diagnostic tool and the psychopathology associates with each type<\/li><li>a\u00a0systemic understanding of personality<\/li><li>a model in which solutions are inherently linked to the problems<\/li><li>an understanding of

things are. The circle represents wholeness and it is essentially empty or can be called clear light. The wholeness is then divided into nine aspects. If the whole of <em>being<\/em> is clear light, then, when form manifests out of emptiness, it can be seen in nine different hues. This is similar to white light being divided up along a continuum into seven colors after passing through a prism.<\/p>\n<p>In his book <em>Pearl Beyond Price<\/em>, an integration of spirituality and psychotherapy, A.H. Almaas delineates nine essential qualities of <em>being<\/em>: Consciousness, Compassion, Strength, Forgiveness, Space, Acceptance, Joy, Will, and Peace. These qualities are merely different faces of love and what are sometimes referred to as qualities of soul. These qualities are what we naturally draw upon to address challenges in our lives. Chronic or recurring problems are often the result of losing touch with these qualities.<\/p>\n<p>In this workshop you will learn:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>to access and utilise essential qualities<\/li>\n<li>utilise deficient emptiness to access&nbsp;the emptiness of infinite potential<\/li>\n<li>the therapeutic use of hopelessness<\/li>\n<li>why is it good when your client answers your question with.\u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>to work with the mystery<\/li>\n<li>the power of radical acceptance<\/li>\n<li>the Forgiveness Process<\/li>\n<li>how to really get to the bottom of problems<\/li>\n<li>how to speak to clients\u2019 strengths and goodness<\/li>\n<li>how emotional wounds&nbsp;are gateways to the essential qualities<\/li>\n<li>how to convert&nbsp;demons into allies<\/li>\n<li>pain does not need to equal suffering<\/li>\n<li>therapeutic applications of the essence of Tibetan Buddhist visualisations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>WORKSHOP FIVE<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>The Hero\u2019s Journey of Self-Realisation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong><em>Therapeutic Applications of Joseph Campbell&#8217;s Model<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Heroes start out as ordinary people who because of a tragedy, crisis, or an irresistible opportunity, go in search of a better life. In order to meet challenges and overcome obstacles they must unearth qualities and abilities they didn&#8217;t know they had. Anyone who has felt let down by a parent, lover, health or any aspect of life is a prospective hero. We can discover ways of rewriting stories of victimisation into tales of transformation and self-realisation that can bring greater meaning and purpose to our lives. Psychotherapy can be an invitation to, and facilitation of, that heroic journey.<\/p>\n<p>You and your clients will benefit through discovering:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Hero_with_a_Thousand_Faces\">Joseph Campbell<\/a>\u2019s model of a positive psychology<\/li>\n<li>how&nbsp;Buddha\u2019s journey to enlightenment&nbsp;is a model for therapy<\/li>\n<li>the framework the Enneagram provides that allows clients evolve from victims to heroes<\/li>\n<li>ways&nbsp;Heroic Myths can serve as antidotes to self-defeating myths<\/li>\n<li>client\u2019s life-governing metaphors<\/li>\n<li>the power of&nbsp;therapeutic metaphors<\/li>\n<li>the calling of your heroic journey as a therapist<\/li>\n<li>how each of the nine personality types when traumatised tends to get stuck in cycles of avoidance at one phase of their own hero-like psychotherapeutic journey.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professional Development Be the best therapist and coach you can be Learn the most elegant ways of helping your clients with&nbsp; methods distilled from the essence of master therapists and enlightened spiritual teachers.&nbsp; Workshops for Professionals WORKSHOP ONE The Deeply Mindful Therapist\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0Realising the Full &#8216;Power of Now&#8217;\u00a0 Relationships are a reflection of the relationship we [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2637","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2637"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2637\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4933,"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2637\/revisions\/4933"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/essentialwholeness.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
