Lifethemes
Dynamic Enneagram Workshops

Powerful workshops to help you:

Better understand yourself and others
Truly grow and change
Apply effective therapeutic tools to Enneagram dilemmas
Enhance your relationship & communicate more effectively
Learn an original perspective on the Enneagram
Find true paths to your personal and professional goals
 

Lifethemes Dynamic Enneagram Workshops combine the diagnostic insights of the Enneagram with the therapeutic tools of Ericksonian hypnosis and NLP.  This is a powerful marriage that blends a deep understanding of people with some of the most effective techniques for therapeutic change in existence.

What is the Enneagram?
The subject of several recent best-selling books, the Enneagram is a fascinating, powerful system of psychology that describes the nine personality styles that human beings most favor. Newcomers to the Enneagram are often amazed to find clear, accurate portraits of themselves and most everyone they know. Therapists often find the Enneagram a stunningly swift diagnostic tool that enables them to see how surface problems reflect wounds of the soul.

What is NLP?
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) is a popular set of transformational tools that enable users to change and grow in often rapid ways. NLP identifies the structure of subjective experience - how we hear, feel and see the world - as a first step to changing it.

What is Ericksonian Hypnosis?
Ericksonian Hypnosis, also called "the new hypnosis," is at once powerful and gentle. Based on the pioneering work of Milton Erickson, this style of hypnosis is open-ended, respectful and positive in its messages.

If You're Ready for a Change...
Lifethemes Workshops use the Enneagram as a springboard to personal change. You'll learn how to focus the system's insights to find movement, vitality and especially choice in how you respond to the world through your personality style.
Thomas Condon has worked with the Enneagram since 1979 and with Ericksonian hypnosis and NLP since 1977. Through the years he has selected techniques from a number of therapies and modified them to address the needs and pitfalls of each Enneagram style. The result is something like a "tool-set" for personal change - useful practices and ideas that you can adopt to transcend limits, solve problems and enhance the natural potentials of your personality style.
Lifethemes Workshops offer a context in which to truly grow and change. In every workshop, Tom works with individual participants to demonstrate powerful ways to change Enneagram related problems.

 Lifethemes Professional Trainings
with Thomas Condon

Workshops to help you: 
Move the Enneagram from theory into practice 
Apply NLP & Ericksonian tools to Enneagram dilemmas  
Sharpen your people reading and diagnostic skills 
Learn the therapeutic interventions appropriate to each Enneagram style 

This workshop is primarily designed for professionals who want to acquire "hands-on" skills, although its usefulness will extend to anyone wishing to actively apply the Enneagram. 

If you are a counselor, therapist or "people helper," you'll learn effective new techniques for promoting change with your clients. If you deal with people on the job, the same principles of change can be usefully adapted to your professional speciality.   

Each Enneagram style will be illustrated and explained. Tom will then demonstrate many ways to work constructively with the problems of each style. 

There will also be a focus on Secondary Gains - the hidden motives and unconscious agendas that drive Enneagram styles. In addition we will explore NLP techniques like anchoring, reframing and therapeutic metaphor - the art of telling stories to create change. All are techniques that can be applied to many situations and clienteles. 

The format will combine personal work with group exercises and skill-building sessions. We will also spend practice time improving our strategies for recognizing Enneagram styles and explore ways to practice personality typing intelligently and respectfully. 

This is a unique training, space is limited and early registration is advised. A free information packet is available. Call Katharine today at (541) 382-1894.

Required reading: Personality Types by Don Riso or The Enneagram by Helen Palmer.

Lifethemes Personal Changework Weekends 
with Thomas Condon 

Workshops to help you: 
Make deep personal changes 
Alter negative self-images and limited beliefs 
Find new techniques to enhance the natural potentials of your Enneagram style
Learn an original perspective on the Enneagram 
Use the Enneagram for spiritual growth

The Lifethemes Personal Changework Weekend offers a friendly, supportive environment and techniques for working on the limits of your personality style.  

The workshop will offer practices to help you more easily access the gifts and resources of your style. In addition, we will work with the "life metaphors" and self images that drive the behavior of each Enneagram style. 

Tom will emphasize the different resources contained within each style and you may find also a new appreciation for how your Enneagram 'part' serves you.  

The workshop's goal is to help you resolve underlying issues that drive personality defenses, while loosening compulsive habits of perception so that you can live a more complete life.  
Tom works with as many volunteers as possible, demonstrating approaches to change that he continues to develop. Most participants report personal and professional breakthroughs as well as a greater sense of freedom and choice. 

We keep the size of these workshops small. Early registration is advised.

A 5-Day Summer Intensive at the Inn of the 7th Mountain in Beautiful Bend, Oregon

June 22-26

  

1998 Lifethemes Summer Intensive 
with Thomas Condon 

The 1998 Summer Intensive will take you deeper into the Enneagram and offer new Lifethemes techniques for changing yourself and working with others. 

The Summer Intensive will essentially combine the formats of the Lifethemes Personal and Professional workshops. There will be an emphasis on personal and professional growth and you will have many opportunities to work on core Enneagram issues.
 

The seminar will take place in beautiful Central Oregon at the popular Inn of the Seventh Mountain. The Inn lies at the edge of a pine forest on the flanks of the Cascade mountains. It is a full resort with condominium style rooms and many amenities.
 

The seminar schedule will leave time to sample the Inn's amazing array of resources: swimming, tennis, golf, horseback riding, canoeing, patio-boating, white water rafting, fishing, roller skating, hay rides, hiking, mountain biking or just relaxing in the sauna and spa.
 

The Inn has a day-care center and day camps for children. Rock climbing and sight-seeing excursions can also be arranged. The small city of Bend is located on the dry, sunny side of the state 160 miles southeast of Portland, Oregon, and is serviced by a local airport. 
 

A block of rooms has been reserved at the Inn with a special workshop rate. It is possible also to arrange somewhat more economical accommodations in Bend proper (7 miles from the Inn). We will send you detailed area information upon registration. 

Our last Summer Intensives here were a great combination of new learning in a holiday atmosphere - we hope you'll join us in
