SAT 2
Rebuilding your relationships
In this module, the psychology of the Enneatypes is deepened through the study of subtypes, fixations and virtues. At the heart of this second module lies a profound exploration of our relationships with our parents, and of the imprints these relationships leave on our present connections with partners, children and siblings. This essential work with the family system brings clarity to the formation of character and its neurotic needs in childhood. It supports the development of more conscious and authentic connections in adult life. An introduction to Mahayana Buddhism further refines the capacity to observe the mind beyond ordinary states of consciousness.
In this module you will explore:
The 27 Subtypes of the Enneagram:
A significant diversification in terms of personality, offering knowledge and practical understanding that goes far beyond what is generally available in Enneagram literature.
The three human instincts and their influence on the expression of personality
Exploring the instinctive dimension of our character and its relationship to the differentiation of the nine types into subtypes can be both clarifying and liberating
The Fixations and Virtues of the Enneatypes:
The cognitive aspect of character is addressed through fixations and crazy, irrational ideas, allowing for a deeper understanding of the psychodynamics of our personalities. Our behaviours begin to shift through the discovery of, and connection with, the Virtues associated with each character structure.
Parental Figures:
Discovering the impact of our parental figures in order to cultivate healthier relationships with those around us.
“Non-doing” Meditation:
Based on the Zen tradition, periods of silent and movement-based meditation — sitting and walking — are alternated.
