Contemplative Enneagram Foundations:
Awakening to Wholeness
Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
— Carl Jung
When one realizes one is asleep, at that moment one is already half-awake.
—P.D. Ouspensky
For practitioners, guides, and sincere seekers ready to enter the Enneagram as a lived path of transformation.
About this Course
At the intersection of contemplative practice, Enneagram wisdom, and conscious community, a space emerges where wholeness is not merely an idea, but a reality that can be directly experienced and embodied.
In this interspiritual immersion, you are invited to awaken to this way of being and begin integrating it into your daily life. Together, we explore what it means to “unblend” from personality and live from a deeper ground of individuality.
As this unfolds, it not only transforms your inner life, but naturally extends into your relationships and the wider world.
What you will learn
In this course, you will
- Discover a contemplative Enneagram framework for awakening to wholeness—learning to “unblend” from type and live from your authentic, whole, and divine nature.
- Engage practices that awaken all three centers of intelligence—mind, heart, and body—supporting a more integrated experience of reality.
- Learn to read the Enneagram symbol not simply as a personality system, but as a mandala of wholeness and a guide for conscious awakening.
- Journey through all nine points, encountering their essence qualities and interconnection—discovering transformation not only through insight and practice, but through a renewed relationship with life itself.
Where This Course Can Lead
This foundational course stands on its own as an introduction to the contemplative Enneagram. For those who feel called to go further, it also serves as a first step toward Contemplative Enneagram Practitioner Certification, now offered through our Enneagram-Informed Spiritual Direction program.
