Cultivate psychological growth and spiritual awakening through integration of contemplative practices with the sacred psychology of the Enneagram
|
Our Contemplative Practices & The Enneagram (aka CPE) practice group meets Thursdays 1-3pm at Unity Temple on the Plaza.
What is CPE?CPE is intended for all who are already familiar with their Enneagram type and who are interested in psychological growth & spiritual awakening through knowledge of the Enneagram and, most importantly, through developing and deepening our contemplative practices.

In these sessions, we generally begin with check ins, a brief guided meditation, a brief introduction to the practice for that particular day and then engage in contemplative practice with a minimum of 20-30 minutes of silence (Centering Prayer practice).
After our Centering Prayer practice time, we open the circle for sacred sharing. To promote safety for authentic sharing, Guidelines for Group sharing include the holding of full confidentiality, the requirement of no cross talk, no interrupting others, and no unsolicited advice-giving.
