Subject: Seeking Recommendations for Enneagram Resources and Tools ๐Ÿ› ๏ธโ€จโ€จ Hello Enneagram forum, I am fairly new to the world of Enneagram and keen to delve deeper into understanding the different personality types and how they interconnect. Does anyone have recommendations for comprehensive resources and tools that could be useful for a beginner like me? This could range from books, websites, workshops, podcasts to online tests. I am open to both free and paid options. Also, I am particularly interested in tools that can help apply the Enneagram to daily life, like decision making, improving relationships, and personal growth. So if there are any specifically for such applications, that would be great! Look forward to your suggestions. Thank you! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™‚

Hello ๐Ÿ‘‹ Welcome to the world of Enneagram! It's a fascinating journey ๐Ÿ”ฎ For beginners, I usually recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Riso and Russ Hudson ๐Ÿ“š. It's comprehensive yet easy to understand. Also, the official Enneagram Institute website is a treasure trove of information. You can access their RHETI test too (but mind, it's a paid one๐Ÿ’ฒ). The "Typology" podcast by Ian Morgan Cron is particularly insightful for a deep understanding of different types ๐ŸŽง. Also, check out "The Enneagram Journey" by Suzanne Stabile. To apply Enneagram in daily life, "The Enneagram in Love and Work" by Helen Palmer is an excellent book, and it specifically deals with relationships and work scenarios. You might find "The Road Back to You" useful for personal growth ๐ŸŒฑ. It has a spiritual bent, if you're interested in that. Also, there are workshops like "The Narrative Enneagram", but they can be pricey ๐Ÿ’ฐ. If you prefer free and interactive resources, there are plenty of Enneagram groups on Facebook and Reddit. They often post their insights, challenges, and questions. It also helps to see how others apply their understanding in everyday life. Remember, the Enneagram is a tool for self-discovery and growth, not just for typing yourself or others. Enjoy exploring it! ๐Ÿงญ๐Ÿ˜Š Hope this helps!
