I have heard a few people say, ‘Hmm…going underneath my personality. Do I really want to do that?

The Enneagram offers a profound body of wisdom for psychological and spiritual healing. Based on the triadic nature of reality, it is intended to help us awaken to our truer nature. Understanding the Enneagram to be far more than a ‘typing’ system, we can discover often unconscious personality patterns that take us in the opposite…
