Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.—Carl Jung
When one realizes one is asleep, at that moment one is already half-awake.― P.D. Ouspensky
Ready to take a deeper dive into the transformational, life-giving power of a contemplative, compassion-based approach to the Enneagram?
Join us for a 3-day weekend, interactive program exploring the foundations for Enneagram-informed contemplation and transformation as a WAY OF LIFE rooted in our authentic, divine nature.
WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR?
This program is for you if
- You are seeking to become a Contemplative Enneagram Certified Practitioner (CECP) through Evolving Enneagram; and/or
- You are a spiritual seeker (who may or may not be interested in professional certification) with basic knowledge of the Enneagram who is seeking an immersive contemplative, compassionate, community-based Enneagram program to nurture your personal healing and conscious awakening.
Anyone with basic knowledge of the Enneagram who seeks to deepen transformation within a contemplative, spiritual path without dogma is encouraged to enroll.
Experience the sacred gifts of a compassionate, contemplative path!

about
At the intersection of contemplative practices, Enneagram wisdom, and conscious community, there is a space where wholeness is not merely an idea but a felt, lived experience. In this weekend intensive, learn how to cultivate your inner awakening and integrate this experience into daily life. Realize how each of our authentic selves matters and how learning to “unblend” from personality and live more from “individuality” enriches our individual lives and blesses the world.
- Discover a practical, contemplative Enneagram framework for awakening to wholeness that allows us to “unblend” from Type and live more fully from the radiance and dynamism of our authentic, whole, and divine nature.
- Tap into the transformational power of contemplative practices and learn the importance of awakening all 3 centers of intelligence–mind, heart, and body–for an undivided experience of reality.
- Learn how to decipher the Enneagram symbol not merely as a personality typology but as a mandala of wholeness and a guide for our conscious awakening.
- Explore our inner dynamism by journeying through all nine points on the Enneagram–touching on each’s essence qualities–and their interrelatedness by traveling along the Enneagram’s circumference and its lines. Discover how we travel the inner journey not merely via deepened understanding or even through embodied action or practice but also through renewed relationship–and, in particular, our relationship with life AS Being.

Recordings will be available within one week of the live course.
