This Month’s Topic: The Value of Values.  Values are the guiding principles by which we live or, at least, they are aspirations that help us align our actions with our principles. Without values, we would be living in an immoral or amoral world of interpersonal confusion and existential chaos. At the same time, too strong an adherence to our values can create a counter-effect of personal and interpersonal difficulties. And too strong an identification with these values rigidly retains our type structures in place, thus inhibiting our growth potential. Please join us for a very interactive session, including a “panel of Type experts” from whom you’ll learn even more about the cherished values of each Enneagram style.

This Month’s Teacher: Sandy Hogan, PCC. Accredited Enneagram Professional through the IEA, Certified Enneagram in Business Coach, and Co-founder of the Enneagram Enthusiasts group that’s been active since 2011.

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC:  Spiritual Jump Starts – Connecting to Ourselves, Others, and God and the Universe 

What spiritual methods work best for you? There are many ways to cultivate our spiritual awareness and learn to work with our inner observer. But what would be most effective for you? We all get caught up in our type-specific problems and certain practices may be more helpful than others, depending on our type. Spotting our blind spots is the first action, but then what are ways in which we can let go and begin to create a new habit or option to how we respond to life’s difficulties? Come explore ways to travel your spiritual path.

Meeting Topic

The Enneagram and Social Intimacy:  Social intimacy definitely plays a part in the complicated mind-body connection that helps people cope better and improve their quality of life.  It is now well accepted that people who have close, supportive relationships with others are generally healthier, both physically and emotionally, and cope better with stress. People who have low levels of social intimacy are prone to higher levels of emotional disturbance, especially when they experience many negative life-changing events or few positive ones. It has been proven that life-affirming relationships and interactions undeniably have a positive effect on our overall health and happiness. Please join us for a lively and interactive session in which we’ll explore the five levels of intimacy (into-me-you-see) and discover how our Enneagram Type and subtype/instinctual variant might be at play in establishing and maintaining healthy levels of intimacy in both personal and professional relationships in which we can feel emotionally supported, valued, and respected.

About the Presenter: As a Certified Integral Coach, Sandy Hogan is one of the most respected integrative life coaches in the country. She helps clients revamp the stressful paradigms in their lives so that health and multi-dimensional wellness can take center stage.

THIS MONTH’S MEETING TOPIC:  The Wisdom of the Wings – Come Fly with Me

The Enneagram styles that reside on either side of our home style, are commonly known as “wings.”  Some Enneagram teachers teach that we have one wing, some two, others dismiss the theory completely.

In this session, we will explore some interesting perspectives on our wing neighbors.  We can be supported by the strength that lies within our wings. We can also be tossed around by the shadow stuff we have stored there.  This session will discover how we are held in the stretch between our wings:

1. How our wings define the clockwise and counter-clockwise edges of who and how we are.
2. How we get “stuck” in one way of coping – when there is so much more we can access.

We will look in both directions and move about the symbol to experience the sense of potentials and possibilities.  Since each style sets up the next, our wings are interacting with us and our neighbors one or more styles away.

Two wings are necessary to take off. To soar. To land. This session will help us identify the strengths of our wings and learn to access those strengths for “ease of flight.”
