The Centers Approach

Comprehensive overview of the Enneagram. Learn. Practice. Integrate.

There are 4 qualities of people who experience ongoing, sustained change: Awareness, Intention to Change, Repetition and Guidance from a Teacher. Whether you're a coach or therapist working with the Enneagram or whether you're on your own personal growth path, these clear and accessible cards help you or your clients cultivate these qualities. 1. Awareness: Activate your curiosity and ask yourself, given my type, how do these patterns show up in my life? 2. Growth Principles: These foundational principles are designed for you to break out of the limiting worldview of your type structure. 3. Grounding Practices: Most Enneagram learning takes place in the mental center. These practices incorporate the heart and body center of intelligence. 4. Action Steps: Repeat to remember is a fundamental brain rule. We are giving our head, heart and body new habits to practice so we can take the 3 centered learning into our lives.

Life poses a series of developmental hurdles that seem strange and threatening when they come upon us. We get settled and comfortable in our new landscape and then life throws us, once again, into uncharted territory. In this class we LEARN about the 8 passages, but dive into the 4 passages in the 2nd Half of Life. Each passage is, in some sense, a dilemma at best and a crisis at its most challenging. Our life journey is to open to each passage even when it feels strange or frightening and grow into it. We support you in doing that. 1. Before each class, you will listen to a podcast, watch a video or read an essay. These materials will be springboards for teaching, sharing and PRACTICE. 2. You will create a guiding Intention to support consistency throughout the sessions. 3. You will learn practices to support the cultivation of your INNER body and aliveness.
