“Freedom to Be” With the Enneagram: Ending Oppression, Cultivating a Liberated World
We will not be truly free until all of us are free. We know this, yet there are billions of people on our planet who are not as free as those who are fully “normalized" by dominant culture. The Enneagram can guide an individual to liberate all the oppressed and locked up parts of themselves to live an authentic and fully expressed life. Social Equity Leaders who know the Enneagram are now using its wisdom in powerful and (r)evolutionary ways to address the othering that happens through “isms” such as racism, sexism, colonialism, ageism, and gender expression, sexual orientation, political identity and more. Join five Evolutionary Leaders in an inspiring, searing, honest, and soulful exploration of this pivotal landscape for humanity to steward. Learn to “see” ways that all of us can be free to create, love, and contribute to a world of interdependent honoring, caring, and support of ALL.
In This Session:
- Building conscious and liberated community by supporting the evolution of consciousness with the Enneagram
- Decolonizing the self and relationships: liberating internalized oppression
- Building resilience through therapeutic approaches to transforming anti-racism and healing intergenerational transmission of trauma
- Working from the scars of oppression and violence, and riding the waves of awareness about racial injustice in 2020 with the help of the Enneagram
- How to welcome in all tribes, ending violence, and renewing the whole earth
- “The Activist's Enneagram” - creating more space for real and meaningful large-scale social change
