this course focuses On the
contemplative dimension of the Enneagram.
This course highlights the lively intersection where Contemplative Spirituality meets the Enneagram map. By emphasizing Contemplation first, then the Enneagram, you will experience the inspiring ways this combination will empower your contemplative practice and life.
This 3-week course is aimed as resourcing your journey of spiritual unfoldment by reintroducing you to the Enneagram as a dynamic map of the inner territory. Things spark and become clearer when we highlight the Contemplative dimension of the Enneagram and consider with guidance how applying these insights assist and jumpstart your spiritual journey and inner work.
This is not a beginner's Enneagram course per se, and the focus will not be on descriptions of the 9 Personality Types. While some familiarity and knowledge of the Enneagram is preferred, it is not necessary. The focus will be on the Contemplative dimension, teachings and practices and how the Enneagram symbol/map assists the spiritual journey towards integration of essence and ego/personality.
Who is this course for?
While this course is not for complete beginners or new-comers to the Enneagram, it is for you if you are excited to take your knowledge of this symbol & map further by studying it through the lens of Contemplation first, then the Enneagram!
Even though the course will be heavily information based in format, we will be taking a holistic approach by highlighting transformation through suggesting body practices, spiritual exercises & psychological learnings/insights as ways to implement & further the Contemplative Enneagram learnings into daily life.
This course is for all who desire to open more fully to the Divine—or however you name your relationship to being more receptive to something greater than yourself. By harnessing profound contemplative wisdom together with the transformational symbol the Enneagram is an instrument custom-built for your spiritual journey. Whatever spiritual path you are traveling, this course will put you on the right track and help you to gain:
Clear Insights into the subtle nuances of Contemplative Prayer and why the method of Centering Prayer and the Enneagram map intersect meaningfully and how they can support one another
Experiential Understanding of the psychological healing and spiritual transformation that Centering Prayer provides
Greater Awareness & Deeper Appreciation of why the roots of both Centering Prayer and the Contemplative dimension of the Enneagram remain so powerfully relevant today
Coach Logan’s enthusiastic, inspirational teaching style, based on his training, extensive experience & depth/breadth of knowledge, will help you begin or deepen your contemplative practice in a way that is truly as empowering.
This course intentionally introduces you to this profound, dynamic system & is aimed at helping you take what you learn so that you “set the table” for more empowerment & transformational growth in your life!
WHAT TO EXPECT
A journey of exploration based on illuminating the Contemplative dimension that lies at the root of the Enneagram symbol
A focus on how Contemplation, or nonduality-as it is sometimes called-enlivens this already powerfully dynamic map of our inner unconscious motivations
In each 2-hour class, Logan will present a compelling teaching on some key concepts, followed by Q&A and brief discussion, and a guided centering prayer practice
All presentations will be recorded & emailed to you after each class so you can review on your own. (The recordings will also come in handy should you have to miss one of the 3 classes!)
Together we are embarking on a fascinating inner journey with the Enneagram as both our map & compass-like instrument. We will be exploring the human condition, the unconscious human motivations & thoughts that block us and hinder us from accessing grounded presence & allowing the transformative action of the divine presence within each of us to unfold & open the mind, heart & will. In order to equip you for this inner journey, this course zeros in on exploring the profound spiritual insights from the Enneagram map, from early Christian contemplative tradition & from the spiritual theology of key early desert monastics as well as other wisdom sources.
