Enneagram for the Inward Journey

“The purpose of the Enneagram is not self-improvement, which would be our ego’s goal. Rather, it is the transformation of consciousness so that we can realize our essence, our True Self…The primary goal of any spiritual tool is union with God/Truth, and then we get united with ourselves in the process!” - Fr. Richard Rohr
The Enneagram is an ancient and powerful tool of self-discovery and spiritual growth. This weekend workshop will introduce participants to the nine Enneagram types, guide them in identifying their own type and help them experience how self-understanding can lead to compassion and allow them to live from their truest self. We will also explore spiritual practices that help shift self-perception, and open participants more fully to Holy.
