Product Description
by Joseph Howell (Author), Phil Cousineau (Foreword by)
Joseph Howell suffered from excruciating grief over his son's illness and death in 2008. A clinical psychologist and spiritual teacher, Howell's pain forced him to search his spirituality. An immersion into the ancient wisdom of the Enneagram revealed a pearl of vastly more profound knowledge than personality types. It was an Enneagram of nine soul types and their particular soul qualities. This discovery of the Enneagram of soul beautifully reconnected Howell to aspects of his soul that he was unaware existed. These soul qualities helped heal his overwhelming grief when little else could. This transformative experience led to this groundbreaking work. Years in preparation, this book is unique among those on spirituality and the Enneagram. Besides presenting Enneagram teachings, Howell tells intimate personal stories of how to recognize our soul type's unique qualities, and how the dominant ego becomes transforms into a servant of our soul. During the writing of this book, Howell and his wife, Lark, lost their only other child, Lauren. The Enneagram of soul is a map of truth that sustains their faith and their commitment to this work, even in this second great loss. People searching for deeper meaning and those who have experienced significant grief of any kind will want to read this book. Beginners and advanced students of the Enneagram will also benefit from it because it takes them from Enneagram basics to finer concepts of soul work.
