Somatic science confirms what many have long understood—our personality is deeply connected to our body.

Welcome to an Enneagram approach that helps you feel the essence of your type in your body. This process nourishes your nervous system and eases deep-rooted defense structures.

I see the traits of the Enneagram types as signs of a nervous system that’s lost touch with its natural essence. By focusing on reconnecting with this essence, we bring healing to the personality’s deeper roots.

Learn how the ‘felt sense’ of essence can transform how you relate, adding new layers of depth and vitality to your Enneagram experience.
