Why use the Enneagram as a tool for transformational change? In this three-part series, Rev. Kelly, with special guest Leslie Hershberger, www.lesliehershberger.com, will help you understand your type and the way it has shaped your relationships and your story. You gain insight and learn tools to calm yourself when you begin to think, feel and act “on automatic.” The Enneagram is a system of nine personality types that provides a lucid map for how we habitually think, feel and react. By gaining awareness of our feelings, strategies and motivations, we open to creativity, choice and deeper connection. We discover our inner observer: an awareness beyond passing moods and unconscious patterns. We become less reactive, kinder to ourselves, and more compassionate toward others. In Part 1, we will cover three of the nine types (8, 9 and 1—the BODY CENTER). Part 2 covers the HEAD CENTER (Types 5, 6 and 7), and Part 3 focuses on the HEART CENTER (Types 2, 3 and 4).
