[NO RECORDING] In this session we will consider transformation as the intimate refashioning of our being -- the transformation of our pain, wounded ness, and unconsciousness into the person God intended us to be.

However, [...]

[NO RECORDING] In this workshop, we will explore the deepest fears of our type, center, and subtype, and the ways we compulsively compensate for these fears.

Finally, we will [...]

[NO RECORDING] No matter how old you are, how much you weigh, what gender you are, or what Enneagram type you identify with, you live in an absolute miracle of nature, your very own human body!

[NO RECORDING] Thinking styles are forms of mental selfgovernment. According to Robert Sternberg the kinds of government we have in the world are not arbitrary but are mirrors of the mind.

Participant exercises will demonstrate [...]

Building on material presented, participants [...]

[NO RECORDING] This session will introduce a model of marriage and family therapy derived from an integration of the Enneagram and Attachment Theory.

[NO RECORDING] Given the fact that type has a biased point of view designed to protect us, it's not surprising that faced with another human being - however well intentioned - type reacts in automatic (fortunately for the purpose of growth) predictable ways.
