  Facilitated by Dr RaShon of The UrBAn EnNEAgrAm, learn to harness (rather than overcome) your personality and generate quality results in everyday life.

  This Enneagram workshop is shaped to deepen inner awareness by exploring the influence of our type’s resource points (wings and connecting lines). Understanding these resource points allows us to grasp more fully the complexity and dynamics of the Enneagram as we place ourselves in a larger context within this system and within our own self-understanding.

  What does it mean for a type Nine to work with the gifts of type Six, a connecting point? Perhaps the Nine engages the imagination more and asks hard questions. A type One accessing the gifts of type Four can take more time for reflection and self care, allowing for creative options to emerge. Each type’s resource points can bring balance and reminds us that all we need is within.

  Working Our World - The Enneagram in Groups

  Learn to SAFELY bring your whole self to your workplace.
  

  June 3, 4, 5 2022

  We meet Friday evening at 8P-9:30P EDT and Sat & Sun 11A-3P EDT
  

  Whether you are leading or participating in a community organization, small business or large corporation, those that you work with expect and demand more of you. Add to this dynamic navigating the daily micro-aggressions and cultural biases many of us face in hostile work environments that undermine our confidence and drain our energy, the stress of these demands can sometimes trigger unconscious patterns of behavior that undermine both our productivity and our sincere desire to serve our communities, families and loved ones.

  Using the Enneagram to Create Balance in your Life and Harmony in your Relationships

  Our instinctual nature, while extremely powerful in our decision-making processes, lifestyle choices, and orientation to day-to- day reality, is often given little emphasis in many spiritual paths, and the Instincts are often treated as an inherent problem - a distortion to be eliminated. This is understandable since this part of our nature is usually little interested in our spiritual or psychological development. Yet, without a clear and viable relationship with this aspect of our souls, it is extremely difficult to maintain an integrated approach to our path.

  The Enneagram deals very directly with this aspect of the Self through teachings about the Three Instincts - Self-Preservation, Sexual (Attraction), and Social (Adaptation).  Seminal ideas about the three Instincts go back at least as far as Gurdjieff's teachings about the Centers and have equivalents in other spiritual traditions. In recent years, many Enneagram students have discovered the explanatory power of seeing how their instinctual bias operates in combination with their dominant Enneagram type. Learning how their type plays itself out through one of these instincts can be as exciting as when we first learn about the Enneagram.

  In this workshop, we will first clarify and deepen our understanding of the Instincts, seeing them at work in our personal experience. We will also examine how our particular instinctual "stack" - the way we prioritize our basic human needs and values - is the pattern that most keeps us locked in the repetitive habits of our personality.  (One of the quickest ways to unlock the Passion and Fixation of our type is to understand and work on the imbalance in our Instincts.) Recognizing the way we give energy to certain needs while neglecting others brings balance and helps us integrate the deeper experiences of Essence and Being that we may have had. Without such Inner Work, even profound experiences of Spirit and Oneness cannot affect our lives the way they could.

  This Workshop will employ experiential dyads and triads, meditation, movement work, and music to help participants recognize the ways that these patterns express themselves in their lives.  We will also explore concrete ways in which to bring greater balance in our approach to our instinctual life.  Our approach is relaxed and conversational, with an emphasis on the development of our capacity to remain in Presence.

  "Nan Henson and Lynda Roberts illuminated the Enneagram and taught with gentle presence unlike anyone else I’ve had the benefit of learning from. The way they each embodied the concepts while teaching added a layer of nuance that helped me connect more deeply with many facets of the Enneagram system. More than just teaching about ideas, though, they helped me tap into the human element—that is so varied and complex—in a fresh and unexpected way. Learning from them alongside an open-hearted cohort enlightened my own life journey, helped me grow in compassion and empathy, and gave me new wisdom for my work as a spiritual director. "

  “If I could pick one word to describe this training program it would be transformational. I have never attended a continuing education event that integrated the mind, body and heart together so beautifully. There are places in my heart that have opened up, places in my mind that have expanded and places in my body that have healed because of this course. I am so grateful to Nan and Lynda for their organized, humble, trustworthy, wise, grounded and open-hearted way of teaching our cohort group.”

  Moving Beyond Personality

  Most of us encounter the Enneagram as a useful system of personality types. We find it fascinating to see ourselves and others through the insights that the Enneagram offers. But at a certain point, we begin to see that the characteristics described in Enneagram books reflect only part of the picture.

  At a deeper level, the Enneagram tells us about the relationship between our personality and our Essence, or spirit. This Workshop will focus on exercises to help us see through the veils of our personality structures to have a more direct experience of our Essence, our true spiritual nature. We will look at the personality types as nine distinct aspects of human nature that can be found in all of us regardless of our type. We will see how these different parts of ourselves manifest personally in our lives, and how, rightly understood they can lead us to deeper inner resources and lasting joy.

  This Workshop will feature exercises for each type, as well as music, meditations, and practices that will help bring our Centers of intelligence (Thinking, feeling, and Instinct) into greater alignment, thus opening us to the transformative action of Spirit. We will focus primarily on the spiritual gifts of each type. If you are interested in finding more effective ways of using the Enneagram in your spiritual practice, or if you are interested in exploring the underlying meaning and Wisdom of the Enneagram, this workshop will be highly relevant to you.
