As many now know, the Enneagram is an accurate and profound map of the human psyche that delineates nine vectors of the soul. These nine Enneagram Types are based on the three primary centers of intelligence: thinking, emotion and instinct.
This retreat will focus on restoring the centrality of spiritual practice and psychological rigor to Enneagram work and will emphasize the foundational role of the Heart Center. We will explore the Essential Qualities and ego-related issues of the Two, Three, and Four in much greater depth than in an ordinary Enneagram workshop, employing meditation practices, inquiry and movement exercises, and presence-based conversations. Our aim is to encounter and work through our remaining psycho-spiritual issues and to know directly the deeper mysteries of the heart. We will facilitate work on areas such as self-images, narcissism, defense mechanisms, and learn what it means to live and work from the deeper capacities of the heart. This work is not only for Twos, Threes, and Fours, of course. Regardless of our dominant Enneagram type, these issues, conflicts, and blockages play themselves out in our daily lives.
You will be invited to:
The aim in all Inner Work Retreats is to encounter and work through our remaining, deep, psycho-spiritual blockages. To that end, they all include experiential exercises such as physical movement, spiritual teachings, meditations, music, journaling, and small group work.
Please bring shoes suitable for movement. Dance slippers are ideal, without rubber soles if possible, or these are also recommended.
