Move beyond personality and the unconscious blocks that are holding you back in life, be uplifted by higher dimensions of your being, and rediscover your true self, gifts, and purpose with the Enneagram’s map of self-actualization.
While it may not always be evident, the things that are holding you back in life can often be found within you.
The good news? If you are the one holding yourself back, you can also be the one to chart a personal breakthrough that places you on a more fulfilling and self-aware path.
Enneagram teacher, author, and psychotherapist Beatrice Chestnut says you can take a powerful step toward a more aligned and expansive version of yourself and life with the Enneagram’s 3-stage path for self-development...
... which unveils the unconscious aspects of your personality that support — or prevent — awakening and transformation, and your capacity to consistently experience meaning, stability, joy, and self-acceptance.
Beatrice is recognized as a leader in the field of psychology and personal development, known for her extensive work with the Enneagram, and has been involved in numerous workshops, seminars, and training sessions worldwide.
With roots dating back to Babylon, Greece, and Egypt, the Enneagram and its 9 types explore personality as a dynamic map to your highest self and full potential as a human being.
This 7-module course with Beatrice will guide you onto the path for spiritual awakening that is most aligned with your Enneagram type to propel your spiritual evolution forward and rediscover your true self.
The three-stage path — find your path, face your shadow, and discover your true self — begins with your ability to witness yourself truly as you are right now.
Instead of identifying with your personality, which can leave you feeling disempowered and like your story has already been written, you’ll learn to disidentify with it...
... removing layers of unconscious patterns, behaviors, and other barriers that stand between you and the joy of your essential, whole self.
Chart a clear pathway of psycho-spiritual transformation through the cultivation of witness consciousness — a deeper awareness of how you are really operating in life.
Return to your true self, empowered by virtues and holy ideas, as well as strengths, gifts, wisdom, learning arcs, and the deeper potential of your type.
During this Enneagram course, you’ll:
- Embark on the 3-stage Enneagram path of self-development — and learn how to initiate your growth journey
- Explore how the Enneagram helps you to spiritually awaken by illuminating key blind spots that keep you stuck in life
- Discover your Enneagram type as an important entry point to using it for transformation
- Cultivate witness consciousness through guided meditations that go progressively deeper each module — and begin to separate your personality type from your true self
- Experience the virtue and holy ideas associated with your type
- Move beyond your personality into higher-level experiences of life
- Gain a deeper understanding of the spiritual dimension of the Enneagram — and how it can be used to activate the archetypal “hero’s journey”
- Unveil your shadow, how it operates, and how to face it to deconstruct unconscious patterns and behaviors that are holding you back
- Recognize how you can access and begin to experience the “pull up” toward your more essential self — a kind of spiritual inspiration that helps you move beyond your personality’s habits
Having studied and worked with the Enneagram for 30 years, Beatrice has personally used the Enneagram as a lifelong tool for expanding her own inner work. She is a past president of the International Enneagram Association (IEA) and has contributed significantly to the Enneagram community.
Her knowledge, combined with her work as a psychotherapist, adds texture, support, and grounding to the hard work of spiritual awakening.
The ancient teachings of the Enneagram offer an important modern-day framework for personal and spiritual evolution — and for raising global consciousness to create a more positive, sustainable, and self-aware world.
Most importantly, Enneagram teachings can illuminate the inner transformations you need so that you can experience more meaning and purpose in your relationships, work, health, and life.
What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules
In this 7-part transformational course, Beatrice will guide you through the fundamental skills and competencies you’ll need to move beyond the limitations of personality and the unconscious blocks that are holding you back in life.
This course will feature step-by-step teachings and experiential practices with Beatrice. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to cultivate witness consciousness and the deeper realization of your true self.
Module 1: Go Beyond Personality to Manifest Your Highest Potential With the Enneagram Path of Awakening
Discover how the Enneagram model works as a powerful path of self-development — including what the Enneagram is, where it comes from, and how exactly it helps us transform.
Explore the Enneagram path as a 3-stage journey of awakening.
Beatrice will introduce the concept of self-observation and guide you in simple practices to cultivate an inner witness — a powerful tool for unveiling unconscious habits.
Begin to distance yourself from your ego by building your capacity to observe your personality and shift its focus through an act of conscious will.
Learn about the elements of the Enneagram system and how they fit together to help you move forward on your journey from a lower state of awareness to a higher level of awareness — rediscovering your true self rather than identifying with a false self.
In this session, you’ll explore:
- What the Enneagram really is and how it can help you activate spiritual awakening
- A guided experience of the inner witness — and how observing yourself and shifting your attention supports your personal growth
- Elements of the Enneagram — and how they can be applied in self-development to help you cultivate self-acceptance and positive change
- How the Enneagram functions as a step-by-step pathway that structures and supports your inner work journey
Module 2: Accurately Identify Your Enneagram Type & Explore Subtypes, Part I — Unveil Your Unconscious Habits & Shift Into Deeper Self-Awareness
How can you use the Enneagram to guide your path of awakening?
Recognize what the first stage of the path looks like for four of the nine types.
Learn how to find and confirm your Enneagram personality type and what to do to begin the growth journey.
Discover how to identify and confirm types 8, 9, 1, and 2 — including traits you must possess in order to be a specific type, and patterns of thinking, feeling, and behavior you can begin to observe about your type and subtype.
An important benefit of this course is that you’ll come to understand your Enneagram type. Many Enneagram approaches don’t include this specific and deep dimension of recognizing the dominant instinct or survival drive that fuels your personality’s less conscious habits.
In this session, you’ll explore:
- The first stage of the Enneagram path of self-development — and what to do to initiate your growth journey
- Ideas and resources for finding your type as an important entry point to using the Enneagram for transformation
- Information about what patterns are associated with Enneagram types 8, 9, 1, and 2 — plus 12 of the 27 subtypes — including traits you must possess to be that type
- How to observe patterns in the moment and strengthen your inner witness and begin disidentifying with personality
- How your personality limits you — and how you can wake up to this limitation and begin to free yourself

Explore what the first stage of self-development is like for types 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. This first stage includes ways of finding your type, things to know when starting out on the path, and patterns to observe to begin the process of conscious growth.
Discover key traits and patterns associated with the other five Enneagram types and 15 of the 27 subtypes — including traits you must possess to be these types and subtypes.
Continue to deepen your practice of strengthening your inner witness that notices specific patterns, begin to disidentify with personality, explore how your personality limits you, and recognize how you can wake up to this limitation and begin to free yourself.
Recognize ways to identify and confirm types 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 — including things to do when starting out on the path of development, patterns to observe, and subtypes.

Module 4: See, Own & Integrate the Shadow, Part I — Discover Your Blind Spots, Fixations & Key Unconscious Patterns
Explore the second stage of self-development with the Enneagram, spotlighting blind spots and shadow aspects — the main unconscious patterns of thinking, feeling, and behavior that each type needs to become more conscious of in life.
For types and subtypes, Beatrice will share blind spots and key unconscious patterns that need to be made more conscious. Discover what this means for the first four types — 8, 9, 1, and 2 — including type patterns and subtype drives, fixations, and passions.
Continue to strengthen the inner witness, the muscle for inner witness consciousness — becoming more able to witness aspects of the personality rather than identify with them and believe it’s “just who you are.”
Witnessing rather than identifying with is a powerful step on the path to spiritual awakening.

Module 5: See, Own & Integrate the Shadow, Part II — Go Deeper Into Key Unconscious Patterns, Passions & Fixations
The Enneagram is an effective tool for seeing, owning, and integrating the shadow, which actually holds valuable insights and gifts.
Deepen your exploration of the second stage of self-development with the Enneagram by further illuminating where you are blocking your spiritual growth.
Beatrice will go deeper into type blind spots, subtype blind spots, and key unconscious patterns that need to be made more conscious for each type...
... and then offer specifics on what this means for types 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 — including type patterns and subtype drives, fixations, and passions.

Module 6: Discover Your True Self, Part I — Gain Clarity on What You’re Actually Reaching Through Your Virtues & Holy Ideas
The third stage of the Enneagram’s framework for self-development explores the journey of each type as it begins to grow and expand into its true self, and provides powerful insights into the question, “Who am I, really?”
Gain actionable steps on how you can move toward embodying more of the virtue of your type — and the holy idea associated with it.
Understanding the more expansive aspects of who you are can help you create a clearer sense of what you’re reaching for — and can eventually attain when you do sincere inner work.
As you immerse yourself in the hard but fulfilling work of self-observation and the psychological development work to move beyond the lower state of the personality, you’ll begin to transform your lived experience to a more spiritual state of consciousness.
Discover what this journey looks like for types 8, 9, 1, and 2.
In this session, you’ll explore:

- The higher-side traits of types 8, 9, 1, and 2
- The virtue associated with your personality type that opposes the passion — and the virtues and holy ideas of types 8, 9, 1, and 2
- How meditative practice can support the experience of the higher emotions and your true or essential self — and how to move beyond your personality into higher-level experiences of life
Module 7: Discover Your True Self, Part II — Move Beyond Your Personality Into the Higher Experiences of Life
Continue to explore the Enngram’s insights on the question, “Who am I, really?” as you gain a deeper understanding of the journey to grow and expand into your true self.
Use witness consciousness to begin to feel when you’re getting closer to your true self.
Beatrice will share what the higher side looks like for the remaining five types — 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 — including how you can move toward embodying more of the virtue and holy idea of your type.
She’ll also offer concluding thoughts about how you can continue on the path of spiritual awakening and growth after the course.

Listening to Beatrice is a gift. She is direct, assertive, and kind at the same time. Self-compassion was the word that popped up into my mind during all this course and this was the key word I needed most at that time. And I hope I can keep it in my heart too.
Goiânia, Brazil
I had a synchronistic experience while taking this course. The timing was perfect for me to see my shadow and open up to working with these traits I carry. I am getting to know myself from a different perspective that is perfect for the personal growth work I have invested myself in. Having the manuscript is really helpful for future reference. Very insightful course!
Cincinnati, Ohio
I love Beatrice! Her knowledge and how she presents that knowledge is vast and easy to understand. This course made me want to take more things offered by her! I loved how she added the comparisons to The Odyssey and The Divine Comedy as it helped me understand the Enneagram types better. Her ability to answer any and all questions was very helpful as well.

More Praise for Beatrice Chestnut, PhD...
I am especially pleased to see Chestnut's credible research support for the renewal of this historic system in a postmodern setting. Work of this caliber invigorates the dialogue between science, mysticism, and psychology, streams of thought that have become estranged.
Renowned Enneagram teacher and author of The Enneagram: Understanding Yourself and the Others in Your Life andThe Enneagram in Love and Work
The Complete Enneagram title of Beatrice’s book befits her work beautifully. This work is clear, thoughtful, comprehensive, and compelling. Examples of the types speaking for themselves, along with the historical roots of the Enneagram, further enrich Chestnut's work. She artfully interweaves theoretical and practical information, and enhances this work with her insightful psychology background.
Clinical professor, Department of Psychiatry at Stanford University, and Enneagram pioneer in the Narrative Tradition
With the best subtype information currently available in print and an exquisite intermixing of the psychological, spiritual, and developmental, The Complete Enneagram more than deserves its title. Pleasurable to read and with abundant theory and practice for both the personal and professional arenas, I will encourage all of my clients to read it, even those who are already Enneagram-savvy. It is solid, classic, bold, even-handed, and original!
