This week we continued our exploration of true self vs. false self for each Enneagram type, focusing on types 4, 5, and 6. We discussed how these types can recognize when they're operating from their false self, and explored practical ways they can return to their true self, including processing emotions, practicing detachment, and cultivating courage.
