Heart Work: An Enneagram Defence Mechanism - Intensive
“For anyone looking to reconnect to their hearts.”
The enneagram helps us recognize the places in our lives where we have adopted patterns for living. We call these compulsions. When we recognizing these patterns, we are able to slow down and choose a different way of meeting life. This helps us in extending kindness and compassion to those we love and to ourselves.
Our patterned way of living runs deep. So deep that we have each developed inner defenses that try to keep us enslaved to our compulsions. These defense mechanisms can look like they are trying to keep us safe, but they may also be keeping us numb to our deeper work.
The defence mechanisms of the enneagram feel like they are protecting our hearts, but are they keeping us from evolving and building resilience?
Over 10 sessions we will shine a light on those times where our unique defence patterns help us skip over our hearts. Can we see where we create inauthentic responses for the people we love? Where are we cutting ourselves off from opportunities to grow.
This study group will:
Help us understand how we avoid connecting with our hearts.
Reveal how we are taken away from exploring and expressing our feelings.
Help us discover fresh ways of listening to self and others.
Teach practices that help us cultivate new ways of engaging the world.
Make you look at your enneagram number in a whole new way

“Excellent sessions - I learned a lot! I really like how you have so many real life examples of all the descriptions - it helps to make the information clear and understandable.”
“We all wish to grow into sensitive people who are able to give and receive love. I have found that if I do not receive my life fully, I do not learn to be kinder and more considerate. Knowing where I trick myself is the first step to growing my Soul. ”
