    S3 Ep8 Getting Back to the Basics of the Enneagram

    It is important to know that as we dive deeper into the Enneagram and learn the complexities of the tool that helps us better understand ourselves and the world, the fundamentals are the most important concepts to understand. It's easy to overlook the passion of each of the types when we are thinking in terms of instinctual sequences or cultural influences on personalities. But the fundamentals of the Enneagram are crucial to understanding ourselves, our motivations, and how we interact with others in relationships. 



    Today we are sharing our very first episode, Getting Started: The Nine Types. We hope you get some new insights discovering the fundamentals of the Enneagram of describing the nine types.

    S3 Ep7 Activating the Heart Center (Part 2 of 3)

    S3 Ep7 Activating the Heart Center (Part 2 of 3)

    Most people use the heart center superficially, meaning they use reactive and conditioned emotions, like an emotional reflex. In this episode, Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes go through each of the nine types and describe ways in which all Enneagram types can Activate their Heart Center and truly feel the four core emotions: fear, anger, sadness, and happiness. Activating the Heart Center is important for all types, including Heart types. It’s a sign of emotional maturity. It is when someone can deeply feel a range of emotions rather than disconnect from them, avoid them, or express them reactively.

    S3 Ep5 Activating the Head Center (Part 1 of 3)

    S3 Ep5 Activating the Head Center (Part 1 of 3)

    Every Enneagram type has a head center. While types Five, Six, and Seven overuse this center, the Body and Heart types underuse it. 



    In this episode, Uranio Paes explains that the majority of people use the most basic part of the lower Head Center too often and during inappropriate times. It is the mechanical part of the brain that is used to memorize information without critical thinking or reasoning. In this mode, people are vulnerable to confirmation bias because anything that challenges the current way of thinking is avoided. Uranio describes the phases of developing the Head Center and how it can test our understanding of the world around us. 



    Also, this episode’s Top Five is light-hearted. It is the top five most interesting things that Uranio Paes noticed about Beatrice Chestnut.

    S3 Ep3 Fooling the Personality

    S3 Ep3 Fooling the Personality

    We are not our personalities. However, when we are unaware of our lower selves, it’s easy to identify with our personalities. In this episode, Uranio Paes goes through each of the nine types to give examples of how to fool the personality so that we can be free from its hold on us. 



    Each of the nine Enneagram types has an over-developed Center of Intelligence. Uranio talks about The Fourth Way, an approach to self-development created by George Gurdjieff.  Gurdjieff was the pioneer who brought the Enneagram to the West. He taught that the first way is the way of the body, the second is the way of the heart, and the third is the way of the mind. The Fourth Way is mixing these three Centers of Intelligence so our personality doesn’t control how we react and we can be a more complete human beyond the confines of our personality.

This is THE Enneagram Channel!

This is my favorite podcast channel. I’ve listened to every episode one hundred times. I recommend it highly. If you are new to the enneagram, this is the channel to listen to. Bea is an authority on the instincts and has amazing emotional intelligence. The emotional states she touches on here! I have sat with rapt attention, fascinated by every word! She is a wonderful speaker and scholar, a very warm person. Uranio keeps right up there with her, adding to the conversation. He too has contributed much on the fascinating subject of instincts. He has deepened the subject on Beas work I owe a debt to him for teaching me so much about myself. But this channel is not just about instincts. It’s about all things enneagram and if you are new to the enneagram, you need to listen to this channel. I am sure you will enjoy it just as much as I do, You have a real treat in store.

Type Interviews!!!

I absolutely love you guys and have listened to all the episodes multiple times, with the subtype interviews being my favorites. The Trent Thornley & Dina El-Badry interviews have been especially meaningful for me as a type 6. The thoughtful interview questions and answers really go deep. It is so helpful listening to people of your type and subtype that you can relate to and learn from. I must say that my all time favorite interview is with Abdul-Rahman Abdullah who is a type 9. He is such a stellar individual, both humble and hilarious. Listening to this interview always makes me happy. Who knew that a 62 year old woman from Boise, Idaho would feel such a connection to a 30 something Muslim man from Egypt! I love the diversity! Keep up the good work, your podcast is the best!

Sound effects

Love the content of every single episode 2.0 has put out… but the sound effects are distracting.
