The Enneagram is a powerful and ancient tool for understanding the human personality. It describes in rich detail 9 distinct ways of seeing the world that drive our habits of emotion and thought. We have each come into the world with one of these 9 viewpoints, referred to as Enneagram Types, which gets reinforced and overused. Through understanding, awareness, and ownership of what we repeatedly do, we can create an Inner Observer that honestly reveals the box in which we have unwittingly put ourselves. Self development practices grounded in Enneagram awareness and refined by a multitude of master teachers provide a roadmap for how to get out of our unique box.

Further study of the Enneagram reveals 3 Basic Instincts, 3 Centers of Intelligence, 3 different approaches to conflict and change, and 27 subtypes that describe with uncanny accuracy our thoughts and emotional habits. But the journey begins with discovering our Enneagram Type.
