The Enneagram is having a time, and Angie and I are here to offer a deeper understanding of this personality framework than the usual “what’s your type” introduction. In these episodes, Angie shares how and why the Enneagram is a resource for growth. I’m along for the ride and I hope you’ll join us every second and fourth Tuesday of the month… or whenever you join us for a listen. Today, we tackle ritual and storytelling, using the lens of the Enneagram.
Ritual and storytelling… intertwined these are. And when conducted using the framework of the Enneagram, I have learned a great deal about myself that has supported my personal development and enriched my relationships. In short, this is what this kind of work is all about.
As we’ve said before on these PauseCasts, the Enneagram gives us permission to pause, and in that pause, to look at who we be, in service of the Greater Good… or Life… or God, whatever your preferred language is for this that is bigger than us alone. In today’s meander, Angie and I explore how ritual and storytelling get us closer to our “…real, essential self” in the words of Richard Wagamese from his book “What Comes from Spirit.”
In short, rituals slow us down enough so that we can see how our stories inform our world view
I hope you’ll stick with us as we explore. And please, share our work widely, give us a review or a drop us a few stars. If you have comments or questions, please send them to meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com.
