[06:08] She was introduced to the enneagram at the monastery while on her retreat to heal and rest, she tested at a 3 proving that she was a workaholic and didn’t know when to shut it down. [07:45] Shemane and Clare recap a little bit of the last episode from being diagnosed with MS and going to a monastery for 3 days once a quarter for 3 years. [08:15] Clare speaks about going to doctors that wanted her to take drugs for the rest of her life, she said no, there had to be a better way. [08:50] She researched a plant based diet and decided to try it for 9 months, she said it was the worst 9 months of her life she is a carnivore she loves meat and it didn’t seem to help anyway. [09:20] Her teacher Ruth Barton wrote a book called Sacred Rhythms about rhythms of work, rest, solitude,community and silence to help you recover your soul that she thought why not try this. [10:25] Do you know your enneagram number? You need the book ‘The Enneagram Personality Styles a Tool for Self Knowledge and Spiritual Transformation’ by Clare. [11:43] There are 9 types of enneagram personalities, she explains three of them starting with an 8. An 8 shows us God is powerful, God is strong, they are the people that challenge us and keep us just and fair, Mother Theresa was an 8. [14:59] Can the enneagram help you if your husband who is antagonistic doesn't do the enneagram also? Clare says yes! you can affect the atmosphere and make change. [16:55] In the heat of the moment if we can take a step back and see what is keeping us from our best self we can diffuse the situation, practice makes permanent. [18:55] A nine is a peacemaker, when they are healthy they are the best ambassadors for peace when they are unhealthy, they are not able to make a decision. [21:58] A one is instinctual, there is a right or wrong and good or bad way no gray area, they try to reform everyone like Martin Luther the great reformer, when they are unhealthy they are perfectionists. [28:15] Have you ever had someone ask you where you want to go eat and you tell them I don’t care? What number does that make you? [28:28] Join us on next weeks episode for installment...
