Wisdom of the Body


Oct 7, 2022

Listen to Susan Piver, New York Times bestselling author of nine books and insightful meditation teacher, school Heather on the enneagram from her Buddhist’s perspective, and at the same time, divulging the single most important thing to know in order to have a successful relationship. Discover how tools that help you understand the differences between people actually help you connect better with people. Get real about whether you want others to be what you want them to be, or what they really are.

 

In this episode, Heather and Susan discuss:

  • Why no one knows where the enneagram came from. 
  • Difference between exoteric vs esoteric teachings of Buddhism.
  • Why it’s such a painful time, and why things that have worked in the past may not work today.
  • Two ways to work with difficult emotions: 1) Get away from it, but then your world shrinks. 2) Go towards it, and expand to include everything you feel. 
  • How the enneagram, and other tools that help you understand the differences between people, actually help you feel love and connect better with other people. This can help you improve relationships. 
  • How the enneagram is different from Myers-Briggs and DiSC.
  • How a real relationship exists when you can answer the question, “Who is this person outside of my own mind?” 
  • What you can transform when you can see where someone else’s attention can go. Do I want you to be the person I want you to be, or the person that you really are? 
  • How to spot when you’re projecting. 
  • In order for another person to understand you, you have to know yourself. 
  • The benefit of being fully loved.
