Enneagram and Spiritual Companionship Premium Workshop

Many spiritual directors and companions are finding the Enneagram to be a helpful guide in deepening their work with directees. This system names the fears that bind us and identifies filters of perception that blind us to the love and compassion present each moment when we have eyes to see and ears to hear. Using the Enneagram map as a guide to the internal stories and automatic patterns of the nine types, spiritual companions can support their directees’ process of liberation from self-limiting patterns toward wholeness.

During this day Premium Workshop, Chris and Sandra will explore:

  • The limitations and gifts of the nine Enneagram types
  • The three centers of intelligence (head, heart, body) and the focus and strengths of each
  • The internal stories and unconscious worldviews that limit each of the nine types
  • Type-specific practices to soften the automatic patterns of type

We will engage in dyad inquiry, type groups, Enneagram type panels, didactic, and demonstrations of spiritual direction to facilitate the learning process.
