Start to understand the deeper dynamics of the Enneagram system below!

Where to Start

What is the Enneagram?

Most people today know the Enneagram as a personality typing system, and it is. But rather than just describing the unchanging qualities of our personalities, it maps out how we act on a spectrum of stress, both in terms of momentary stress and long term, deep-rooted traumas.

When we learn to use it effectively, the Enneagram is a tremendously useful tool to get us out of ego-driven, self-defeating patterns and into a way of living that fully supports who we are at our core.

Where Do I Start Learning?

Below you'll find written resources, including descriptions of each type and of the structural dynamics of the Enneagram.
