So you’ve tried to get out of those same old personal ruts and nothing has helped. That was the case for me too, until I found the Enneagram. Well, truth be told, I still get in ruts, but now I recognize them before they swallow me up!
The Enneagram is the best tool that I know of for changing those personal patterns that we’ve tried and failed to change a hundred times!
It is a sacred psychology that has ancient, spiritual roots. When we locate our personality type (there are 9 of them), it makes so much sense of our struggles and gifts. But the magic of the Enneagram is how it maps a clear way for our spiritual growth and how we access our higher potentials as a human being.
It is a system that uses a nine-pointed figure to portray nine basic personality styles. Each type sees the world very differently. The aim of this holistic model is to break us free from our dominant type so that we can access the riches of all nine types. The world and our option open way up as we are liberated from the exclusive domain of our type!
Working with the Enneagram is a catalyst for making change and for more effective functioning in your life and work. It is being used extensively in leadership coaching and training, schools of business, the CIA, the postal service, seminaries and medical schools.
