That Moves You Into New Levels of Relational Health!
Relaxing tension patterns and staying more open to the true possibilities in every relational moment.
Optimizing style strengths and learning to use the particular connection gifts of your personality type more consciously and effectively.
Expanding your response options in challenging interpersonal situations.
Transforming difficult moments with loved ones and co-workers into powerful forward movement in the relationship.
Clearing up blind spots with the life-enhancing practice of staying curious in the relational field and using the “permanent beta” approach in your relationships.
Moving into the kind of mindful interpersonal action that can create success in every area of your life.
“You have probably noticed that people change constantly—sometimes they are clearer, more free, grounded, and emotionally available, while at other times they are more anxious, resistant, reactive, emotionally volatile and less free. Understanding the Levels makes it clear that when they change states within their personality, they are shifting within the spectrum of motivations, traits, and defenses that make up their personality type.”
“… two people of the same personality type… will differ significantly if one is healthy and the other unhealthy.” (Reproduced with permission from the Enneagram Institute, All Rights Reserved, the Enneagram Institute Website, 2005, www.enneagraminstitute.com)
