The Enneagram

The Enneagram is an ancient  personality system that describes nine personality types. Each type is characterized by a primary mental and a primary emotional concern.  Awareness of your own type enables you to observe your own patterns with compassion, which allows you to more easily choose new ways of being. Learning others' types (friends, spouse, children, co-workers, colleagues) will make it possible for you to understand feelings, communications and behaviors that were previously incomprehensible. You will be pleased to notice a new ability to act with more compassion, and intelligent skill, out of this understanding.

BENEFITS OF LEARNING THE ENNEAGRAM

Enhances self-understanding
Enhances compassion for self and others
Enables changes in perceptions and actions
Allows strengths and assets to show up more readily
Increases understanding of different work styles
Expands ability to interact effectively with different work styles
Strengthens leadership skills
Strengthens management skills
Improves communication (listening and speaking)
Strengthens relationships among group members
Creates a more harmonious, productive and nurturing environment

Knowing the Enneagram enables me to be a much more effective coach for skill building in human relationships.  I can predict certain behaviors, stumbling blocks, and the strengths of each type. Different approaches and strategies work with each type for empowering, encouraging,  building self-esteem, and resolving conflicts.

Having studied many theories and systems, I have found the Enneagram to be the most accessible in the shortest amount of time,  and the most powerful in enabling people to transform themselves and their relationships. In a very short time (two day workshop) you can realize the benefits listed above. The applications of the Enneagram in business are many.  After you complete an Enneagram course with me I invite you to call me when you have any questions.  I am so confident that you will benefit from learning the Enneagram that I offer a full refund if you are not satisfied.

THE WELL

"The well from which water is drawn conveys the further idea of an inexhaustible dispensing of nourishment…We must go down to the foundations of life. For any merely superficial ordering of life that leaves its deepest needs unsatisfied is an ineffectual as if no attempt at order had ever been made."

"The generations come and go, and all enjoy life in its inexhaustible abundance."

"and every human being can draw in the course of his/her education from the inexhaustible wellspring of the divine in human nature."

"The water is there for nourishment and healing, if we can only draw it to the surface."

"The well is cleaned, but no one drinks from it. This is my heart's sorrow, for the well is there for all to be nourished."

The I Ching

Testimonials
“Patricia is just so great at what she does. I think she understands me better than I understand myself. By using IFS and the Enneagram she has helped me accept all of myself. I have stopped condemning parts of me that I have been battling for years. I have reached a level of personal acceptance that has enabled me to forgive myself, and consequently to forgive others. I function at a much higher level of energy and effectiveness since working with her.”

Robert Tallon, Co-author of From Awareness to Action.
