Sharing Circles
A Sharing Circle is an opportunity for nurses to freely and openly talk to each other by creating a safe and sacred space for sharing.  By joining together in the circle and asking meaningful questions, you can help to unlock the door to deeper understanding of individual journeys and see the wholeness in the diversity of our collective journeys.  In witnessing others’ stories, and being witnessed in our own, we connect, heal, and transform.  Refer to the conference schedule for sharing circle meeting times. CNE provided.

Research Poster Presentations
Learn about the latest holistic nursing research as you visit our Poster Presentation displays.  These visual exhibits are always a popular offering to our program since they can be read and studied at your leisure. See schedule for times to meet with the presenters.  CNE provided.

Drumming - Friday June 4, 2010 8:30-10:00 p.m.

Ritual and Ceremony
As we join together in the conference community of nurses, we seek to honor and cherish the diversity and unity that we share. The opening and closing ceremonies will draw the conference participants into community both during the conference and when we return to our own professional settings.
