A Bridge to the Essence of You: A Yoga and Enneagram Experience

  • Highland Lake Cove 215 Rhett Drive Flat Rock, NC, 28731 United States (map)

What is the alchemy of you?

What are the ingredients of your essence?

And what would it feel like to arrive within a sacred circle of humans only here to celebrate what that is?

THE EXPERIENCE

 With its roots in ancient mystery schools, the Enneagram is a powerful tool with modern-day applications for self-growth, empowerment, and enlightenment.


The millennia-old tradition of yoga calls us back to our bodies, yoking breath and movement to engage our senses and raise our consciousness. Together, these two wisdom systems can realign us with our truest and highest selves, while giving us deep insights into the nature of all beings.

In this full-day immersion, we will explore the Enneagram’s nine types through the Embodiment Tradition, a somatic experiencing of the system that invites us to feel into each type, from fixation into boundless Essence. We will also connect with each type through the practice of yoga, including asana and meditation.

The Enneagram teaches us that all beings are connected, and through the Embodiment Tradition we can experience this connection for ourselves.

Yoga grounds us in ourselves while also expanding our awareness beyond the container of the self, bridging us to the universal.

Enneagram expert Ali McGhee will share her wisdom and knowledge around the sacred and life-changing teaching that is the Enneagram.  She will offer tools of empathy and understanding (for self and others) that can be integrated into our everyday lives.

Tara Eschenroeder will infuse the experience with poetry, nature connection and yoga (asana, visualization, meditation); providing an invitation out of the thinking mind back into the soil of our bodies.
