The Wisdom of the Enneagram: Exploring New Pathways for Addiction Treatment, Recovery, and Relapse Prevention
For years, the Enneagram has been used in multiple contexts as an effective way to help individuals and groups understand themselves and discover their unique gifts and predictable personality pitfalls. However, there is vast potential for expanded use of this tool. As part of a psycho-spiritual integrative approach to treatment and the twelve step process, the Enneagram can be an integral part of relapse prevention and spiritual awakening for those in recovery from addiction. By encouraging clients to develop their inner observer, the Enneagram can help clients understand their motivations and patterns of interactions and help them identify relapse triggers and core relapse patterns. The Enneagram also provides a map with movement and choices, enabling and empowering those in early recovery to practice new behaviors and ways of relating when triggered.
