Contemplative Enneagram Groups
Deepen your self-awareness through contemplative practice and the Enneagram in an online contemplative community.
Spiritual Formation
Contemplative Prayer & Meditation
Each gathering offers 20m of silent meditation practice. We primarily practice Centering Prayer during these groups, but I also lead various meditation exercises as a way of enhancing self-awareness.
Enneagram Instruction
Together, we explore the Enneagram, looking at ways contemplative awareness shapes who we are beyond our personality Type
Who is the "I" that "has" a personality?
Spiritual Community
This is about community; spiritual community that is open and honest with one another, and most importantly, with ourselves.
CONTEMPLATIVE ENNEAGRAM GROUP REVIEWS
Knowledge of your Enneagram Type
Willingness to do "self-study" outside of group meetings (about 1 hour of reading / podcast listening per week!)
Commitment to a regular contemplative practice (a regular practice is not required when registering)
As a “Closed Group” once people join, no one else comes in, that way we can preserve a sense of community and intimacy.
Groups limited to 10 people
Groups are 2 hours long with a short break and include:
Welcome & grounding meditation
Enneagram & Contemplative Prayer teaching
Silent Centering Prayer practice (20 minutes)
Guided conversation around personal transformation using the Enneagram and contemplative practice
Early Bird $199.00
During this 5-month course we will explore themes around:
You are more than A number; Your dominant number, or leading Enneatype, is something you have. (Something only You can truly take responsibility for in order to become Your truest and most authentic Self).
- Compassion: presence and stillness as key for grounding in body awareness (Types 8,9,1)
- Empathy: gratefulness and solitude as key for opening the heart space (2,3,4)
- Curiosity: active listening and silence as key for open mindedness and clarity (5,6,7)
-The suffering of the heart, or the Passion, of each point on the Enneagram.
-How do we suffer from our disconnection with our deepest self?
-How do we respond to this suffering?
We will also consider what the Enneagram has to say about cultivating compassionate presence with the Passion as a path to healing and wholeness.
MEET YOUR FACILITATOR
Hello! I help people slow down and reconnect with their deep self and get grounded in God.
As a certified Enneagram, meditation, and contemplative prayer teacher, my ultimate aim is to help people integrate their everyday life with contemplative awareness that is grounded in contemplative practice and knowledge of personality.
