Four and a half years ago I woke up with a hangover, and I decided it would be my last one. •• My Enneagram work has greatly benefitted from reevaluating my relationship to alcohol, but for the first few years I felt isolated because so much of my social life up until that point revolved around it. And let’s be real, I just really loved craft beer. •• Finding @athleticbrewing was such a godsend! Every beer I’ve had from them has been completely stellar, and the best part is I don’t have to worry about the strain alcohol puts on my body. •• I’m super excited to announce that I’m now an Ambassador for Athletic Brewing and I would LOVE for you to try out their stuff. If you’ve been curious about nonalcoholic beers or shifting over to the sober life, click the link in my bio to get some Athletic of your own!

The One Where We Give An Overview of the Enneagram

For today's blog post I wanted to talk about the Enneagram.

It seems like everyone has their thing when it comes to personality tests/descriptions - whether it be Myers-Briggs, horoscopes, the color test, etc.

My thing is DEFINITELY the Enneagram. I've developed a habit of regularly guessing the people in my life's "type" and convincing people to take the test. I first took the Enneagram a year and a half ago. I now know that my result at the time was skewed because I was in intense turmoil - more on that later. We then dived into the Enneagram as part of my RYT200 training and I became very fascinated with it. Most recently, I gave a Lunch & Learn presentation at work on the Enneagram.

Before we really dive in - a few quick notes:

I am NOT an Enneagram coach. This is a real thing and there are people out there but this is purely just a passionate hobby of mine.

Most of the information I will describe is sourced from the Enneagram Institute.

Pictures are sourced from Contemplative.org

A great resource to take the test for free is: https://www.eclecticenergies.com/enneagram/test

So…

What exactly is the Enneagram?! Whelp, it's a personality test. But it also has been around a LONG time and has entire institutions devoted to studying it. It is based around 9 "types," has "growth/stress paths," "wings," and "centers," and "healthy/unhealthy levels". These are a lot to get into but are essential in truly understanding who you are in relation to the Enneagram, so my current plan is to get into them in specifically dedicated posts.

It should be noted that it is "common to find a little of yourself in all nine of the types, although one of them should stand out as being closest to yourself. This is your basic personality type." Most of the major Enneagram authors agree that we are all BORN with a dominant type - so nature rather than nurture when it comes to the enneagram. Other important things to note include:

Types are gender-neutral; no difference for male vs. female.

People don't change types. Growth and stress paths can get confusing with this BUT people's basic type is their basic type forever.

The numbers on the Enneagram are value-neutral - no type is "worse" or "better" than the other.

I highly, highly, highly encourage you to take the test. Personality tests can seem trivial, but the Enneagram is important in how we relate to others. It helps us empathize with other's motivations, realize our own patterns and motivations, and be more in-tune with others.

After you know your type, I would highly encourage you to look into some of the following resources:

Read about your type on www.enneagraminstitute.com - this page also has fantastic articles on how types interact with each other in relationships as well as a daily email list that can provide horoscope-style introspection for the day based on your type.

Check out some awesome Instagram pages!! I am listing a few of my faves below. They are a blend of "oh shit I feel CALLED OUT" and "hahahah this is what 'The Office' meme fits my enneagram type."

The Typology podcast. So so good.

Sleeping At Last!!! Their band released an "Enneagram" album - they wrote a song for each type. It will PROBABLY make you cry when you listen to your type's song. They also have a podcast. And last but not least, they have a collaboration with The Giving Keys with a necklace that has a word for each type.

I'm excited to dive in more to the Enneagram over the next few weeks and I'm extra excited to hear everyone's type so if you know your type, feel free to comment below or tell us!

[consciousenneagram]

I get this this question a lot, so I figured this would be the best place to start. The Enneagram of Personality (what most people just call the Enneagram) is a psycho-spiritual personal development tool. I like to think of it as a map of your inner landscape, or even something like the owners manual for your personality. Each one of us leads with one specific type (yes, even you). In psychological terms this type is a set of effective coping mechanisms turned reactive, patterned behavior. Spiritually, our types show us both the path to our truest selves and the nine different ways we block against being receptive to what the Universe (God, Allah, Supreme Being, etc) has for us. As we study the Enneagram we learn what we look like in reactivity. By becoming aware of our patterned behavior we have the chance to see when it’s effective and when it’s not. With the help of contemplative practices we can begin to create more space between outside stimulus and our patterned responses, therefore giving us the ability to choose our behavior instead of reacting out of habit. This is where lives are transformed. And that pretty much sums up what I’m trying to do with my life and what I want to help others do as well. So, what’s the most helpful thing you’ve learned about yourself because of the Enneagram? How are you using it to grow? What kinds of things do you want to know about your type?

Y’all. I had the opportunity to be a part of maybe the most important Enneagram conversation that @the.shift.network has ever seen. •• You don’t want to miss this year’s Enneagram Global Summit.

Y’all!!!! I am so excited to finally be bringing back our South Austin Enneagram Meetup! •• We’ve taken an extremely long break, but we’re bringing it back next month (and every third Thursday after that)! •• This month we’ll be doing a live recording of Conscious Construction with a Q&A about my new book. And of course there will be lots time to simply hang out and reconnect. •• Click the link in my bio to get your ticket! • • • #enneagram #enneagram1 #enneagram2 #enneagram3 #enneagram4 #enneagram5 #enneagram6 #enneagram7 #enneagram8 #enneagram9 #millenneagram #spiritualgrowth #personalgrowth #enneagramcoach #enneagramteacher #queerenneagram #personalitytypes #enneagramtypes #ConsciousConstruction #ConsciousEnneagram #spiritualwork #innerwork #transformation (at Austin, Texas Y'all) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRlkT0UlBrl/?utm_medium=tumblr

We talk about a beautiful painting, not the paint brushes. We talk about life-giving music, not cables, wires, and recording equipment. We talk about an exquisite sculpture, not the hammer and chisel. •• So why do we talk more about the Enneagram than we do about our life’s work? •• It feels a little scary to be saying this given I’ve spent the last several years of my life building a platform *talking about the enneagram.* But if there is anything I’ve come to realize about the majority of the current discourse on the Enneagram right now, it’s that it’s getting in the way of the real work. •• Do we need to have a solid understanding of the system, of course. But we don’t learn it for the system’s sake, we learn it in order to do the work. Just like a musician does learn an instrument for the instrument’s sake, they’re driven to learn, study, practice in order to make music. Does the instrument or tool matter? Of course! But it only matters I service to the work it was designed to do—otherwise it’s just an object. •• So my question to you is, are you focused on the tool or what the tool is allowing you to create? Can you put more of your focus on the work, and let the tool be simply that, a tool? • • • #enneagram #enneagram1 #enneagram2 #enneagram3 #enneagram4 #enneagram5 #enneagram6 #enneagram7 #enneagram8 #enneagram9 #millenneagram #spiritualgrowth #personalgrowth #enneagramcoach #enneagramteacher #queerenneagram #personalitytypes #enneagramtypes #ConsciousConstruction #ConsciousEnneagram #spiritualwork #innerwork #transformation (at Austin, Texas Y'all) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQdm38hleQO/?utm_medium=tumblr

My POV right now. •• We had big plans of going on our first big bikepacking trip this weekend, but the weather had other plans. So, instead, I got my second shot yesterday, and damn, I’m feeling all sorts of wigged out. •• Mostly, I feel fine, just some intense fatigue, which is a real struggle for me. The compulsive drive I have to “do” something is off the charts currently, but my body is simply not into it. Even walking to get the mail felt like a lot. •• The Work never stops. It shows up every day in the most mundane aspects of your life. For me today, it’s just keeping my ass on this couch so my body can rest and give my immune system the extra help it needs. Glad I have these pups to keep me company. •• How is your work showing up for you today? How can you relax more deeply into it? • • • #enneagram #enneagram1 #enneagram2 #enneagram3 #enneagram4 #enneagram5 #enneagram6 #enneagram7 #enneagram8 #enneagram9 #millenneagram #spiritualgrowth #personalgrowth #enneagramcoach #enneagramteacher #queerenneagram #personalitytypes #enneagramtypes #ConsciousConstruction #ConsciousEnneagram #spiritualwork #innerwork #transformation (at Austin, Texas Y'all) https://www.instagram.com/p/COYn3hlFZ-Q/?igshid=jpgglfbnoi2k

When a friend asked how I, as an 8, was dealing with all the feelings of having a book coming out, my only answer was, “I’m working out a lot.” •• I wish I was joking, but I definitely wasn’t. 😂 •• Yesterday, I crossed the finish line of a bike race for the very first time. I’ve done a couple other races in the last year, but wasn’t able to finish because of physical pain or bike issues. Yesterday’s ride was extremely tough, but I made it through! •• Bike riding, especially off road or gravel riding, is a spiritual experience for me, and yesterday was no different. It’s healing to be out in nature, in the quite, feeling the wind blow, breathing the fresh air. •• Of course that wind made the riding pretty brutal, and I was definitely breathing pretty heavy most of the time, but I still found myself stunned at the beauty of nature and even a little impressed at what my body was capable of. •• I’m definitely feeling all 62 gravel miles today. But I’m also feeling the spaciousness within myself that comes with having time away from normal life to process my feelings and burn off pent up physical energy. •• How do you process your feelings when you’re going through Big Things™️? Let me know in the comments! •• Big thanks to @capitalcityracingtexas for putting on a great event and to @new_kat_atx for riding slow enough that I could keep up! • • • #enneagram #enneagram1 #enneagram2 #enneagram3 #enneagram4 #enneagram5 #enneagram6 #enneagram7 #enneagram8 #enneagram9 #millenneagram #spiritualgrowth #personalgrowth #enneagramcoach #enneagramteacher #queerenneagram #personalitytypes #enneagramtypes #ConsciousConstruction #ConsciousEnneagram #spiritualwork #innerwork #transformation #queergravel #gravelcyclist (at Apache Pass Event Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN0HJK2F7YN/?igshid=o35ayd0ihphb

Today I’m trying something new, friends. •• I’m a little terrified, but equally excited. I’ve been wanting to move more in this direction for well over a year, and finally something clicked on me a couple night ago that said, “Just start already.” •• So, I’m starting. Zero promises about what it will turn into, but I can say that I’m starting. My goal is to shoot, edit, and post three vlogs. But who knows what will actually happen. I’m keeping things open and seeing where the creative energy takes me. •• I’ve already got some great Enneagram related content on my YouTube page, and I’m hoping that these vlogs will bring a different flavor to how we talk about the Enneagram. •• Go check out the YouTube channel and subscribe to keep up with my latest adventure!

I’m at the doctor! Eek! •• Our work is hard work. It may not look that difficult to the outside observer, but it’s not their work. What seems so easy to others can cause a full-on panic in you personally. What’s a total breeze for you, could feel like climbing Mount Everest for someone else. •• All this to say, be gentle, our work is hard work. And whether you know it or not, everyone else is working hard, too. • • • #enneagram #enneagram1 #enneagram2 #enneagram3 #enneagram4 #enneagram5 #enneagram6 #enneagram7 #enneagram8 #enneagram9 #millenneagram #spiritualgrowth #personalgrowth #enneagramcoach #enneagramteacher #queerenneagram #personalitytypes #enneagramtypes #ConsciousConstruction #ConsciousEnneagram #spiritualwork #innerwork #transformation #transformationtuesday (at Seton Family of Doctors at Balcones Woods) https://www.instagram.com/p/B74BZU6lsFZ/?igshid=wrk3ujrqixzx
