Turning Toward The Light

Finding your way back home through the Enneagram

February 20-23, 2025
 

If light is in your heart, you will find your way home.
~Rumi

Program Description

This four-day retreat at Green Gulch Farm is a rare opportunity to create an intimate community through the exploration of the Enneagram. Surrounded by gardens and bordered by the Pacific Ocean, the setting supports deep listening and a fuller expression of our inner truth. The wisdom of the Enneagram is a powerful path to breaking down habitual internal obstacles and awakening the heart.

About this Retreat

During this time of confusion and darkness our inner light may feel as if it has dimmed. Gathering together in the safety of our circle, we will create rituals and practices to help us move towards the light that is always present. Together we will find our way back home as we work with each other and the Enneagram. 

 

Rumi writes: “The wound is the place where the light enters.”

Leonard Cohen sings: “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.”

 

Our circle will take a healing journey through the wounds and the cracks into the shining light that is within each of us.

As a coach I work the Enneagram in conjunction with other modalities to help clients recognize their patterns and bring forth their highest potential.

 

My coaching style is influenced by many experiences including Somatic/Trauma training, the study of Buddhism, Diamond Heart teachings, and mindfulness training. Growing up in Israel on a kibbutz and raising two children has also been instrumental in informing my coaching.

​

Credentials and training: International Coaching Federation (ICF) Certified Coach, International Enneagram Association (IEA) Certified Teacher, Trained in Somatic Experiencing; Trained in Hakomi Method; BA in Psychology, Teaching Credential.
