The Enneagram of the Soul is a 40-day devotional companion rooted in over two decades of contemplative Enneagram teaching.
This introduces readers to the interspiritual, wholeness-oriented, and practical lens from which we approach the Enneagram — inviting integration beyond personality into embodied transformation.

Join the inaugural cohort of this pioneering, Enneagram-informed spiritual direction training and certificate program. Integrating contemplative spirituality, the Enneagram, and the art of spiritual accompaniment, this two-year formation journey is designed for those called to accompany others with greater wisdom, presence, and compassion. Inclusive and interspiritual in its approach, the program welcomes participants from diverse faith traditions and levels of Enneagram experience.
Applications are now open. An Early Bird discount is offered for those who are accepted and register by September 15, 2026.
Exciting Update: We have pushed back the start date of the cohort to February 2027 in order to completely integrate our Contemplative Enneagram Practitioner (CEP) program. Now, students who complete EESD Phase 3 together with approximately 40 hours of pre-recorded Contemplative Enneagram Practitioner (CEP) course materials (at your own pace) will earn a Contemplative Enneagram Practitioner Certification — included at no additional tuition.
