Sexual Expression and Enneagram Type FOUR (The Individualist)
Does your Enneagram type follow you to the bedroom? Yes, it does!
INNER BELIEF of average FOURs - “I am unique – you won’t find anyone like me out there” (Ann Gadd).
At their best Type FOURs are highly creative, inspired, and transformative. At their worst they are dramatic, self-absorbed, and moody.

DID YOU KNOW
♥ Sexual passion doesn't have to wane as you spend more years with your partner!
♥ Your sexual vibrancy can increase even if you are single or celibate or resting!
"Sexual incompatibility" can be transformed into INTIMACY when we have greater understanding and appreciation of ourselves, and of our partner.
This is part of our INTIMACY SERIES which addresses how the Enneagram can be valuable to understanding love, intimacy, and sexuality. We are starting with TWO and ending with ONE.
Group leader Paul Paiva will be joined by Shani Jones to co-facilitate this discussion.
