Social media and other internet platforms have been rapidly spreading the Enneagram teachings in an unprecedented way. As a result, more people than ever are getting access to information about the nine types and different Enneagram theories. What is often lacking, and perhaps difficult to convey through these media, is the original orientation toward the material--learning the internal references [...]

It is widely known in spiritual work that genuine transformation is a transformation of the heart. Yet, the traditional teachings behind the Enneagram make it clear that this can only happen through an awakening in the body and in the mind as well. It takes most of us a while to really understand what the centers are in our [...]

A unique day expanding the Enneagram's power by merging it with three complementary paths to transformational change. Russ Hudson, Marion Gilbert and Tom Condon will each present their different perspectives and methods for increasing presence, opening to what is beyond your personal self and living a full life. Using panels, group exercises and demonstrations the three presenters will offer [...]

The Enneagram typology has been around long enough now that a significant number of people are aware of its power to illuminate important elements of our character structure. Some then go a step further and learn the basic principles of self-observation upon which all real Enneagram work depends. We learn more about the real function of the Centers, how [...]

In its original form, the Enneagram symbol was more than a typology--it was an invitation to experience reality in new ways. The symbol itself has at its center a triangle in a circle, representing what Georges Gurdjieff called the Law of Three--a way of looking at the paradoxes and polarities of life, and understanding them as the engine of [...]

While knowledge of the types has tended to be the central focus of the modern Enneagram, sincere students also learn that the Enneagram symbol has an incredibly rich and profound background. This session will focus on some of the broader and deeper frameworks of the Enneagram found in a number of ancient sources which all point to our consciousness [...]

The Enneagram was originally taught as part of an integrated system of ideas and practices explicitly aimed at genuine transformation and living in presence--not just typing. But what do we mean by "presence"? What actually has led to transformation with this work? Gurdjieff taught that we cannot be present without being awake and alive in our bodies, and that [...]

How do our type structures and the associated drives for security, well-being, and love and the corresponding aversive emotions of fear, anger, and shame / distress play out in greed? What is required to lessen greed / selfishness and create true generosity? How might presence and love remedy this inner hunger? In this workshop, we will explore together how [...]

Most of us initially encounter the Enneagram as a typing system--a way of recognizing the principal characteristics in ourselves and others. But if we continue to study this work, we come to understand that the Enneagram is actually a system to support us in coming back to ourselves in the living moment: "to remember ourselves" as Gurdjieff put it.
