June Chapter Meeting: The Sacred Enneagram with Chris Heuertz

The Sacred Enneagram with Special Guest Chris Heuertz

If we can’t self-observe, then we can’t self-correct. The Sacred Enneagram helps us self-observe, helps us tell the truth about who we really are— coming clean from our delusions and illusions, so that we can locate the authentic source of our identity.

Focusing on a contemplative approach to the Enneagram invites us to resist the reductionism of inner fragmentation, to realize we aren’t as bad as our worst moments or as good as our greatest successes—but that we are far better than we can imagine and carry the potential to be far worse than we fear.

Ultimately the Enneagram is about excavating essence. Rather than it being a tool for self-absorption, the Enneagram is a tool for self-liberation. Join our guest Chris Heuertz who will offer:

1. An accessible introduction to contemplative practices and mindfulness intentions that can be aligned with Enneagram types.
   
2. An introduction to nine unique contemplative postures and mindfulness intentions that align with Enneagram types to be applied to spiritual formation.
   

Bringing the Enneagram into a contemplative focus offers a compassionate sketch of possibilities, reminding us that the Enneagram is fundamentally less about nine types of people and more about nine paths back to our True Self, nine paths to God.
