• This flat, static view of the Enneagram is far too constricting.
• It puts you in a box rather than liberating you.Seen in a more holistic way, the Enneagram is dynamic and ever-evolving — a multidimensional tool that reveals more and more of what makes you uniquely YOU.The Enneagram is not a stereotype of your identity, but a “soul map,” a compassionate and creative guide for delving into your shadow and unconscious patterns that can open new pathways for transformation.As you deepen your practical understanding of the Enneagram, you learn to navigate your relationships with greater skill.
• Really knowing your own type, subtype and the role your instincts play in your evolution, you’ll better understand the other types ’ motives, fears and defenses.The Enneagram is Your Portal to a More Evolved SelfYou are undoubtedly committed to living a conscious and caring life — and yet every day you may encounter situations and people that can trigger self-sabotaging reactions.Even if you’ve been on a spiritual path for decades, you may be humbled by your reactions — rooted in subconscious drives — and would like to work more successfully with these “lower” aspects.These reactions may be affecting your health, your sense of self, yourrelationships and your ability to bring your gifts to life.All of us have habituated ways of being that block full self-expression and joy.And yet, these subconscious patterns are linked to the specific coping mechanisms of the different Enneagram types, as well as the three instinctual drives and centers.Even if you can eloquently recite deeper spiritual truths, when these very human patterns are triggered, you may forget the bigger picture of who you really are and the unique and beautiful gifts you have to share with the world.Take Your Self-Inquiry and Spiritual Growth to the Next LevelSo, how can you find clarity and free yourself from the compulsive fears, desires and motivations that trigger patterns and undesirable reactions?Where can you turn for the insights and practices you need to foster healthy relationships, reconnect with your true Selfand fulfill your highest potential?The Enneagram for Awakening program can take your self-inquiry to the next level — with a transformative system of spiritual psychology that can help make sense of the wondrous complexity of being YOU — and especially your instincts effects on your beliefs, motivations and behavior.You’ll discover how to utilize the Enneagram to improve your relationships and identify your unique gifts so you can make your best contributions to our world.More important, you will understand your true nature in new ways.
