One of the biggest stumbling blocks for personal development can be a lack of objectivity when looking at ourselves. The Enneagram gives us a tool to consider what "type" pf person we are and then how this "type" has particular strengths and weaknesses, desires and avoidances. With this objectivity, we can become better problem solvers and consider our self-care in a new light. Christina Granahan, Enneagram-informed therapist and life coach joins the podcast for a lively conversation about this self-discovery tool, sharing personal examples of how her own Enneagram knowledge empowered her as mother, wife and professional.

Inspired by the work of Caroline Myss, this meditation focuses on your first three energy centers or chakras to support your shift from a past-focused mind to a present-focused mind, drawing you into the life you want to be living. When we quiet and begin to observe the mind, it’s easy to see that habitual thoughts are often what occupy our thinking. These habitual thoughts generally stem from past experiences, causing us to limit our potential of moving into a more creative life experience. This meditation is meant to introduce you to your three lower energy centers (chakras) and use visualization and affirmations to focus your mind on what you more deeply desire for your life.

Being too self-absorbed or too self-aware can be problematic if you're seeking a  fulfilling, meaningful life and healthy relationships. Gaining awareness and choice around your habits in these aspects of your life allows you to show up in all your relationships in a more powerful way. If you're in relationship with others who are self-absorbed it can feel disappointing and uncomfortable. In this episode, you'll have the opportunity to consider your own behaviors and attitudes around self-absorbed and self-aware, as well as looking at others in your life and how they are showing up so that you might communicate about what you want. You are also invited to consider what true confidence is in light of this topic.

Journaling prompts are suggested to further your exploration.
