Show notes

In this episode of The Sauna Show, we sit down with Robert Bruce, the Co-founder of Enneagram Academy. Robert guides us through the 9 personality types of the Enneagram, an ancient and powerful personality-typing philosophy that has been enrooted in human history and tradition for millennia. Robert discusses the details of each 9 different personality patterns - believed to be the basis for our characteristics, the purpose of the Enneagram, and its history with our cultures both past and present.

The Enneagram itself has a "primary goal and purpose to enhance self-knowledge; its ancillary benefit is that it allows us to understand the behavior of others, and with that understanding, to be more accepting and compassionate", according to the Enneagram Academy.

A fascinating episode looking at the modern Enneagram as a condensation of ancient cultural wisdom, commonsense philosophy, and psychology, providing extraordinary insight into human behavior.
