About the Workshop<\/strong> — Early in Christianity, ascetics would seek solitude in the desert, believing that knowledge of themselves was essential to knowing and understanding the presence of God within them.\u00a0 The great mystics-St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, etc., called for an inner journey of self-discovery necessary for discovering the divine presence and action of God within the human soul.<\/p>\n The Enneagram is a tool for discernment, designed to increase our ability to accept the personal mystery and to answer the question “Why do I do these things?”\u00a0 We are never free until we are free from ourselves, and the Enneagram is a path to that freedom, providing a road map of the places where we get stuck, a deeper understanding of our tendencies, preferences and compulsions, and a guide to integration of our three energy centers: the head, the heart and the gut, or instincts.<\/p>\n The workshop includes:<\/p>\n Prerequisite is attendance at a Basic Enneagram Workshop or a fairly good grasp of Enneagram theory from reading and a pretty good idea of what your Enneagram number might be.<\/p>\n You can access The Enneagram Institute<\/a> and take the RHETI (Riso Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator) to aid in determining your Enneagram personality type.\u00a0 The link will take you the RHETI Sampler<\/a>, which is a short, free version of the complete test<\/a>.<\/p>\n Registration fee of $85.00 includes all workshop materials and lunch on Saturday.\u00a0 To register, pick up a registration form in the foyer, or you can call the office from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM Tuesday-Friday and register by phone at 318-868-3313.<\/p>\n![\"EnneagramDiagram\"](\"http:\/\/allsoulsshreveport.org\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/EnneagramDiagram.jpg\")
