NEW EVENTS

"Discovering the Enneagram"   For those who seek spiritual enlightenment and growth

 

The Enneagram is both an ancient and a current form of self-discovery. The use of the Enneagram has grown in contemporary times because of its power and pertinence both for the individual as well as for our culture. By attending to the journey inward, we are equipped to transform our perspectives, relationships and sense of call in the world. Knowing who we are intended to be, living fully awake and making informed decisions will change our world one person at a time.  

The conference facilitator is Dr. Joseph B. Howell. Dr. Howell is an experienced facilitator who has been leading Enneagram workshops for over 25 years.
