The Enneagram and Addiction with Michael Naylor

Join us for a very special evening with our own Enneagram teacher and writer, Michael Naylor, of Portland, Maine. Michael is an innovative and inspiring leader in Addiction, Recovery, and Transformation with the Enneagram, as well as a consummate soul guide. He will share with us how discovering the Enneagram gave him eyes to see his unconscious processes and to bring them to the light of day, and how that impacted his own journey of recovery. Michael will also share some experiences working with others who, after years of sobriety and recovery work, finally see they are still caught in the trap of their type, and how the Enneagram has supported them in moving out of the prison of their type.

This presentation will be interactive, with Q&A portions and an opportunity to explore your own stories of transformation with the Enneagram. You do not have to identify as a person in recovery to attend— the event is open to all and relevant to anyone on a journey of self-discovery with the Enneagram.

In addition, he does recovery coaching using the Enneagram to assist recovering individuals in moving through their Enneagram-specific core-patterns and the predictable crisis that contributes to addiction transformation and off-the-rails-joy, or to relapse, and unnecessary unhappiness.
