Additional information
by Peter David Thibado (Author)
A personal autobiography put together to aide in using the Enneagram for self-development rather than as a Type indicator. Too often students of the Enneagram box themselves and others into the confines of their individual Type. The greater purpose for the Enneagram is to live as a whole person through aligning the centers; head, heart and gut. If we can recognize our tensions and reactions we can release ourselves from them and gain compassion for ourselves and others.
