Dear Folks -
This week in Ordinary Life we were fortunate to have two very knowledgeable people present to us information about the Enneagram. Judy Wibratte, presented information on “Spiritual Bypass.” That had to do with the things we all do to sidestep growing emotionally and spiritually. There is no text of her talk but if you are interested in following up on the material presented, she has provided two very good links to additional resources.
They are -

Brooke Sommers-Perry, presented information about specific practices one can actually and practically do to grow emotionally and spiritually. The presentation slides she showed can be found using the links below. You use the link below to listen a recording of the entire presentation.
I remind you that Conspire begins next week. You can find the schedule of presentations and “philosophy” behind this additional educational offering under the Events menu.
Be well!
Much love,
