Personality Awareness and the Enneagram

We live in an age of personality and yet often are unaware of what it is, how it serves us and how we can, and often don’t, work with it. Our individual personalities both help us and hurt us, while others’ personalities may enchant or confuse. Using concepts from the Enneagram, adult development and mindfulness to provide a framework for building personality awareness, this course will explore how personality is formed, the key components of personality and their origins, and practices and tools for working with our own and others’ personalities. The Enneagram will be described with key principles detailed and put into a context that provides a framework for self-awareness, self-regulation and self-acceptance. Classes will include teachings, group discussions and breakout sessions.
