Valeria interviews Rosemary Hurwitz the author of Who You Are Meant To Be, The Enneagram Effect.
Rosemary’s work speaks to the Enneagram Effect, specifically its wisdom and practice, on our lives, and what the trajectory for our lives can look like when we practice thriving, not merely surviving; in other words, when we are acting in alignment with who we are meant to be. If you are new to Enneagram inner work there is a personality type discernment quiz and a list of songs that Rosemary likes for each of the Nine Types.
The Strengths and Challenges section for each type, while certainly not exhaustive, gives us a good feel for what each type can bring to the table of life. The Emotional Passion section – or as Dr. David Daniels referred to it, the “driving energy” – is next. Rosemary likes both terms because she thinks they help of our type (which then attracts within us the high end of our corresponding type) our authentic and happy place; our “heaven on earth.” Conversely, we see what it looks like for us when we are stressed, in a state of unease, or in an absence of wellness. “House on fire” kind of stress can bring out the best in us, but the wellness map (arrows) shows us what we do to ourselves, where we go, and how we domino down when we choose to react from our “low side” to every day stresses. Rosemary calls this state your “hell on earth.” Of course to one degree or another we can go in and out of these states of center and stress all day long because we are human. Our ease and inner security can go hand in hand with our authenticity, and our dis-ease may be influenced by
When we do this inner work, of choosing security over stress, we pull in or attract the many resourceful gifts within our unique personality. It is when our personality is driven by Spirit, where we are perfectly safe, that we find ourselves directed, joy-filled, enough, secure, resourceful, and so much more.
