Varför Enneagrammet?
The Enneagram is a model that describes nine basic life strategies and maps the challenges and strengths of each strategy. The model is based on our intelligence; the mental, the emotional, and the instinctive center.
If you are ready to open up and be completely honest with yourself and are interested in learning more about a model that helps us understand our thoughts, feelings and actions on a deeper level, then you are welcome to follow us here.
The unique thing about the Enneagram is that it also describes the development paths for each life strategy, which means that the real work begins when you have found your number. With the Enneagram, you learn to recognize your warning signals and stress signals and thus avoid many pitfalls. You get a tool that helps you develop your self-awareness and find your strengths and thus live a happier and more meaningful life.
With the Enneagram, you don't just get answers to the question What? but also the more important question Why? We don't just look at behaviors, but a further look at the motivation behind our behaviors, i.e. why we think, feel and act the way we do. It helps us to understand ourselves better and to be more humble towards ourselves. This in turn also helps us understand others and give us more meaningful relationships.
