Stumbled upon this summation of Enneagram wisdom in Volume 57. The enneagram is an excellent companion tool to mindfulness as it gives an understanding of the perspectives and habit patterns we’re caught up in. The Enneagram is not about putting yourself into a box, but rather to see the box that you are already in. We create boundaries for ourselves through identification with our ego and by unconsciously perpetuating certain defense mechanisms and ways of seeing the world. Through the three centers, the Enneagram teaches us to be present in our body, to describe* our emotions and have an open mind. The path of development for all types is through growing awareness and equanimity (ApE) with the body (anger), feelings (shame), or head (fear). *not identifying with emotions, but objectively noting what is. #enneagram #wisdom #personality #psychology #spirituality #spiritualdevelopment #integral #integralpsychology #awareness #equanimity #development #levelofdevelopment #happyape #helenpalmer #donriso #russhudson #jeromewagner #flemmingchristensen #henrietteclaydon #volume57 https://www.instagram.com/p/CEoGOoWhwMc/?igshid=p01h0tezf1qd
