Hello Enneagram enthusiasts! 🌟 I'm curious about how different Enneagram types approach health and wellness. 🧘‍♂️ Do certain types tend to gravitate towards specific health routines, diets, or fitness regimens? Are there any patterns in how we, based on our Enneagram type, handle stress, self-care, or even mental health? For example, as a Type 1, I find that I have a structured exercise and diet plan, but I can also get pretty self-critical if I miss a workout or eat something unhealthy. Do other Type 1s experience this? And how about other types? Do Type 7s seek variety in their fitness routines, or do Type 2s prioritize group activities to stay connected while staying fit? I'd love to hear your experiences and insights into how your Enneagram type influences your approach to health and wellness. Any tips or advice for tailoring wellness practices to fit our unique personalities would be greatly appreciated! 💬 Looking forward to your thoughts! 🌿💪✨ #Enneagram #HealthAndWellness #SelfCare
