Letting Your Light Shine
No matter how well we were parented, there were times in our young years that each of us, as children, found difficult. In those times when you felt your needs were not being met as you wished, you drew conclusions about the world, yourself and others. These conclusions became the deeply held, unconscious beliefs that now drive your less than positive patterns of thinking, behaving and reacting. Even if you have already done years of growth work, you find yourself automatically slipping into these patterns of thinking or behaviour when you find something troubling or difficult or when someone else’s behaviour ‘presses your buttons’. It is these patterns that cause you all the pain and difficulties in life.
Your true self is that pure positivity with which you began life. Those positive traits that you came into life with are an intrinsic part of your personality type and they are the way your light was meant to shine. The negative patterns that you have unconsciously taken on act as lampshades which dull your light, and make it really hard to let your true light come forth into the world. The real purpose of working with the Enneagram is to first, discover your positive gifts, then understand and accept those patterns of negativity within you. Then, as you let go of them you remove ‘the lampshades so that your light can truly shine. This is how you discover and reach your potential, and become all you were meant to be.
During the Enneagram Programme you learn not just about the negative stuff, but about your gifts, about what is already within you that is the way in which your light was meant to shine. And as you unravel your negative patterns, this work is done in a nurturing, supportive environment where you are encouraged to take your negative stuff lightly, without self-criticism. Moreover, the programme incorporates simple, yet deep processing work (based on the Soul Freedom Process used by Veronica in her private practice) to permanently clear the negative beliefs and emotions that drive the negative traits of your type. In just one 4-day course you find yourself kick-started forward on your personal path of growth in a way that otherwise might takes decades or, more likely, never be achieved at all.
