About the Conference

What is the Enneagram?
Faith has all the principles of healing and wholeness but in our distractions, we frequently miss them. Fortunately, a newly discovered system of spiritual enlightenment has been shown to give us greater access to the power of our soul. This exciting power not only revitalizes our faith but deepens spiritual awareness. And with this awareness, people are actually transcending the burden of that which would have previously created great suffering. This is a newly discovered yet ancient system called the Enneagram.

Having its roots in the third and fourth century Christian Desert Mothers and Fathers as well as in forgotten bedouin tribes of the Middle East, the Enneagram is now empowering our faith in life-altering ways. These truths are made available to you at this Kanuga event by psychologist and spiritual teacher, Joseph Howell, Ph.D. author of Becoming Conscious, and the highly experienced faculty of the Institute for Conscious Being.

“Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them”
“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” 

– Henry David Thoreau
