Introduction to the Enneagram Tomorrow: Saturday 11/16
9:00- noon in the living room at COM
 Join for a morning exploring the enneagram , a powerful tool for personal growth. During our interactive session, we will have a chance to see how this model for understanding the human personality, based on ancient wisdom, is a gateway to self-awareness and spiritual growth. Knowing more about how our enneagram type views the world can also help strengthen our relationships with friends, family and community.
No prior knowledge of the enneagram is necessary, but if you would like to read up in advance, there is helpful introduction at  https://www.enneagramworldwide.com/the-enneagram/  and you can take an initial tour through the nine types.
Suggested donation $10
