CroneWorks Practical Spirituality Series with co-sponsorship from NASW-NC presents our 3rd Annual Women's Retreat:

Wild Woman Finds Home! Friday, October 17 - Sunday, October 19, 2008 Trinity Center - Emerald Isle, NC NOTE NEW DATES AND INCREDIBLE NEW LOCATION! Facilitated by Deb Bowen, MSW, LCSW Co-Sponsored by NASW-NC

General Information: "The Wild Woman is a combination of common sense and soul sense," says Clarissa Pinkola Estes in Women Who Run with Wolves.  Thus begins our journey to finding home within ourselves.  Over the weekend, we explore who we as women truly are.  We find joy in this exploration, in our time together, and in the revitalizing energy of beautiful Trinity Center.

At our first CroneWorks retreat, we developed ways women create peace in themselves, their work and the world.  At our second retreat, we imbued ourselves with courage to follow our convictions.  This year, we look deep within ourselves to find who we truly are - and celebrate our core being!  We are honored to have you join us!

Mission Statement:
Somewhere along life’s journey, many women lose sight of who they really are, deep inside.  Some women make choices and sacrifices that do not honor who they truly were meant to be.  This weekend retreat affords women an opportunity to find their core being, to celebrate her, honor her, and to commit to act on their convictions. 

Objectives:
Upon successful completion of this retreat, participants will be able to:

1.  Examine their concept of the psychological and spiritual archetype of "wild woman".
2.  Develop tools for honoring themselves (and their clients).
3.  Integrate knowledge and tools gained into action at home, and in their community.
4.  Become more involved citizens at a global level by a greater awareness of diverse cultures.

Continuing Education:
A certificate of attendance reflecting up to five hours of continuing education hours can be provided.  Consult with your licensing organization for approval.
