Come to this program for personal transformation ready to play
full out!

With your small group (limited to 16 people) you will create bold intentions around what you want to step into and be. In live sessions you will do your inner work that results in actual changes that effect all of your relationships. For example, you may want to expereince more: power, presence, love, connection, abundance, creativity, etc.

You will take strides, release old ways of being, and let go of anything that blocks your expression of these qualities. (You may release some
of your: fear, doubt, frustration, self judgment
, etc)

You will push your personal edge in the following areas: how truthful can you be in your self expression, how much love can you let in, and how much intimate connection can you stay present for?

An Enneagram Type Two finds safety in the group and pushes her edge. She discovers that she can be angry in front of others without being rejected and the world opens to her in new ways.

 


Are you ready to engage in
new behaviors?

We’re going to ask you to step into places you haven’t explored before, feel things you haven’t felt before, push your "comfort zone," and go willingly into the unknown.

Why?

Because that’s where the transformation is, that’s where the healing is, that’s the way you can shift how you show up in your personal and business relationships.

Program Title:
Deepening Connection

Program Structure: We will use a dynamic mix of didactic learning, dyads, movement exercises, open seat work, and group process. You
will be encouraged to actively participate in each others healing process, this is not designed to be primarily a, “sit and watch others do their work” program.

You will also be in the webinar series "The Nine Types Revealed" which
will meet most Tuesdays that we are not having live class meetings. Webinars will include an in depth exploration of one Type each night starting with Enneagram Type 1, and will include live coaching around that particular type.

Program Format: Tuesday and a few Wednesday evenings live, and one full day Saturday. Webinars on Tuesday nights.
We will cap the group at 16 people.

In this training you will learn:
How to feel more life energy and emotion with ease.
How the Passion of your type keeps you from connection and you will feel through this block.
To love others shamelessly.
How to move from ego states into essence states.
How to let go of the places where old wounds are held in your body as you release your “Body Armoring” in live time.
Skills that will allow you to do deeper level group work.
Apply Gestalt principles to generate more life energy, access creativity, and experiment with new ways of being.
A 5 step prayer process called an "Essence Connector" that will allow you tap into your own divine nature and access more peace, love, authenticity, strength, power, and presence. (Essence Connectors are similar to Spiritual Mind Treatments taught in New Thought circles.)

 

You will learn online as well!

Product #3

Freedom to Choose:
Developing your Self Observer
to Break Out of Type and
Into Choice



How would it be to catch yourself in the act when you are being consumed by your type and take completely different action?

You learn how you can create awareness practices that are unique to your type! And even better, you’ll learn how to design ones that are specific to you!

In this program I design an awareness practice in live time with one of my students who is a type Seven on the Enneagram.

We create it so he can catch himself in the act, release
the Type Seven impulse, and take totally new action to get better results in the world.

We model the design process for you! As we walk through the steps you learn how to create precise practices for yourself!

Program Benefits:

Learn how to catch yourself in the act when you are in the trance of your type and make another choice.
Release your self-judgment of your type related emotional reactions. (Such as fear, anger, frustration, or self-lack)
Precise self-observation brings your core issues out into the light. This causes them to loosen their hold on you.
You get a solid structure to create meaningful self-observation practices that allow you to get a hold of that slippery ego that likes to hide in the shadows.

Get instant access to over 2 hours of Camtasia video trainings! What is a camtasia video? It's a video of a slide show with added audio. Reading and listening at the same time deepens your learning.

Testimonials

Hina"Before understanding my own Enneagram type I would interrupt, overpower and push my clients into submission (This was not good for repeat business!). Now, I'm not as unconscious of my old behaviors. I work collaboratively with clients, listen and empower them to create positive changes they want in their work and home lives."

- Hina Pendle, Coach and Type Eight


James Phelps"I am a type nine on the Enneagram. Living with indecision and a numb senselessness regarding my own needs had become a way of life for me until I started looking at myself through the Enneagram. The Enneagram finally gave me a frame of reference that made sense to me and helped me understand my experience in a more enlightened way.

Once I understood what was happening, I was able to get in touch with my own needs and feelings. I found that cultivating anger was a very powerful channel for this work. As I developed the ability to get in touch with my anger, I was able to recognize my needs and desires. The anger gave me focus and a growing sense of self that I never before experienced.

This was a powerful starting point for me. From there I was finally able to figure out a path in my life - a career that I truly enjoy. And as I work with my needs I learn more about myself and feel more satisfied with my life each day."

- James Phelps, Deputy Sheriff


James Phelps"It was unbelievably eye opening for me to see how much my type energy influences my thinking, feeling, decision-making, interactions with others-- so very many areas of my life! I felt both blessed and overwhelmed to experience the depth of my type structure, AND to start separating my type from my true Self. The other thing I loved about this workshop was the reverence and love that the instructors held for the soul of everyone there: each participant, panel member, staff assistant, etc.

I’ve participated in many forums in which I’ve witnessed the course facilitators expound their brand of self-awareness during the class, but then practice a completely different set of values in ‘real life’. Ben and Donna are living what they’re helping us to learn, and I deeply respect and appreciate them for that."

- Adele Cox, MA CMT, Body Therapist


"I feel so loved and supported in the group. It helps me to pull out of my self-pity when I see other people work on their tough issues. I feel myself more open, more understanding and more self-assured."

- Yong Bai, R&D/QA Manager


"I am a Type One on the Enneagram. I used to make over a million dollars in sales each year. I would eat in the finest restaurants, fly first class and always sit in seat One-A beside the front, left hand window of the plane so I had elbow room. If I didn't get that seat I would be openly hostile and chastise the stewardess until they made the other customer move to another seat. A little personal slight or imperfection in service would make me seethe and stew for hours. If we arrived at a hotel and they had messed up my reservations my friends would wait in the lobby as I ranted and tore into employees until we got the penthouse suite. I had no empathy or understanding for whoever made the error.

After studying the Enneagram and working with my point I have changed dramatically. Now I'll sit in row Two-B and feel ok. I don't make a scene and can move with the flow of life. I let go of my concerns and anger at being slighted, mishandled, or "dissed." I give others the right to make errors. I have learned to walk in their shoes and release them, and myself, from the resentment I used to feel so constantly."

- Richard Robinson
