Each Enneagram style has sweet spots where there is a clarity of vision, an intuitive edge. We look for what we value, what is important to us.
Each style also has blind spots, some aspects of ourselves, others, and the world that we overlook but that others see more easily.
And each style has hot spots, vulnerabilities that are usually found around our sweet spots. When what we value or what we’re good at gets criticized or dismissed, we get anxious, depressed, or angry and then overreact.
Through input, reflection, and dialogue, this session will explore:
– The values each style is attracted to and energized by; our sweet spots
– Misperceptions that arise due to our hyper-sensitivities; we might see insults and contempt where there aren’t any; our blind spots
– The primary vulnerabilities of each style — what each is particularly sensitive about; our hot spots
