The 9 Dimensions of the Soul

Many people are familiar with the Enneagram, a description of personality types. Many are increasingly familiar with Essence, meaning qualities of being, a rapidly developing field in modern psychology. 9 Dimensions of the Soul is the first book to relate the two, understanding the personality types of the Enneagram in relation to the Essence. It integrates, in a direct practical way, the spiritual and psychological dimensions of the Enneagram. In doing so, it sheds a new light on our personality, its origins and how it operates, presenting an accurate map of our inner and outer self, our personality and our inner being. It shows how these two dimensions are connected, and how they hold the key to our personal transformation and to fulfilling couple relationships. It functions equally well on a broader social scale, revealing new insights into how organizations and countries actually function.

Review:

The Nine Dimensions of the Soul is written in a beautifully simple, insightful and heartful way and transmits complex material in a way that is easy to read and understand. Also, it is a welcome addition to the literature on the enneagram by integrating the 'Essence Work' of A. H. Almaas and Faisal Muqaddam with the traditional understanding of the nine aspects of the enneagram. Thomas O. Trobe, MD Psychiatrist and Founder and Director of Learning Love Seminars, Inc.
