About Course

What is Enneagram? 

The Enneagram is a powerful framework for self-awareness and professional growth. It

offers deep insights into personality, behavior, and underlying motivations, helping

individuals and managers understand the values and drivers that shape their actions.

In organizational settings, the Enneagram is invaluable for identifying the root causes

of stress, miscommunication, and conflict, both within teams and at the individual

level. By illuminating core identity patterns and fostering emotional intelligence, the

Enneagram empowers professionals to enhance collaboration, improve

communication, and create a more cohesive and effective workplace environment.

Mindfulness and the Enneagram

Mindfulness and the Enneagram is an experiential 8-week program that integrates the

scientifically proven benefits of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) with the

deep psychological insight of the Enneagram. Participants are guided through core

mindfulness practices, such as presence, breath awareness, emotional regulation,

and non-judgmental observation, while exploring how each Enneagram type uniquely

experiences attention, distraction, reactivity, and growth. The course highlights the

specific mindfulness challenges and strengths of each type, offering personalized

strategies to enhance self-awareness, reduce stress, and cultivate greater emotional

resilience. Ideal for leaders and teams, this program supports clarity of mind, improved

decision-making, and a more grounded, compassionate organizational culture.

Topics covered include: the voices in our heads, human motivational systems, stress

and overthinking, exploring difficulties, empathy and compassion, psychological

triggers.

Recommended number of attendees: 12 to 18
