Introduction to the Enneagram

For those of you that are completely new to the Enneagram, the Enneagram is a psycho-spiritual map towards understanding and knowing ourselves and others. We are all driven by a need to understand, grow, learn, and achieve. The Enneagram shows us the 9 different ways that we see, feel, and think. It teaches us that we are more than our personalities and that we have a True Nature that has been covered by the personality.

The Enneagram helps us to delve underneath the personality structure and uncover the 9 different illusions we have. One of the Enneagram’s first teachers reminds us that we have been asleep and our work is to wake up. He says we are 3 brained Beings and that we really have 3 centers of intelligence, our mind, gut, and heart. In the introduction to the Enneagram, I hope to take you on a tour to meet all 9 types and discover something about yourself!

If you already know the Enneagram there may still be some nuggets you can take away with you. The Enneagram is a dynamic map, the deeper we are willing to look the more we learn about ourselves.
