The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram: Nine Faces of the Soul
by Sandra Maitri

Sandra Maitri's "The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram" is, without doubt, the most insightful and meaningful book on the nine temperaments, but caution potential readers that this is not a "beach read" and is best suited as reading for those who are seriously ready to take a deeper look at their own psycho-spiritual essence and soul. This is not a pop-psychology "personality typing" book, but rather a valuable guide for people on their journey of self-discovery, transformation and self-realization.

The book DOES touch on the Nine Temperaments of the enneagram in the personality type" context most people know it, and it covers the psychological aspects of the different types. The majority of "The Spiritual Dimension of the Enneagram" is dedicated to a thorough discussion of each of the nine temperaments, examining the way each has "lost touch" with its essence or "Holy Idea;" describing the psychological and environmental circumstances for these losses, and then offering guidance on how to recover the part of the self that has been lost.

The term "sprituality" by no means makes this a "religious" book. Instead, it is a book about understanding and healing our souls, regardless of religious orientation.

The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above. The Enneagram types (Temperaments) are not made up of lists of character traits, but are founded in a person's core values. Each Temperament represents what that person considers something very important to their life such as power, security, harmony, knowledge, fulfillment, i.e.

Your Temperament enables you to make a valuable contributions to your life; but it also causes you to neglect other values, creating a psychological ‘blind spot” for you.

This is why, if you:

Give A Good Thought Before Taking The Anxiety Disorder Medication   
Beth Kaminski

What do you do when you get a panic attack? Many people feel that drinking alcohol can completely cure you of the anxiety or panic attacks.

In fact, alcohol like the other prescription drugs just has a masking effect on the panic or anxiety attacks. The anxiety disorder medication is a total failure when it comes to cure you completely of the anxiety attacks. If you have been prescribed the anxiety disorder medication, you need to ask the doctor about the pros and cons of the anxiety disorder medication.

Among them, the panic disorder, also known as panic attack or anxiety attack is the worst. Brief but intense terror or apprehension, accompanied by trembling, shaking, confusion, dizziness, nausea, difficulty in breathing etc engulfs the patient when such attacks take place. Some fear that they are going to die immediately and others feel they are on the verge of becoming insane. Although the feelings and the symptoms pass away in half an hour, they leave a lasting impression on the mind of the sufferer and can psychologically cripple him for good. Administration of anxiety disorder medications can only help him at that moment.

One of the most common anxiety attack medications is Xanax. This medication is a very powerful sedative and you need to be very careful when you are on this medication. Sometimes, you may do things that you will probably not do when you are under the influence of the Xanax medication. Along with the anxiety disorder medication, the doctors will also give you general well being advice such as
o Stop smoking cigarettes
o Stop drinking alcohols
o Stop engaging in adventurous activities such as paragliding
o Cut off fatty foods from your diet
o Cut off too much sugarsThere are two types of anxiety disorder medications. One belongs to anti-depressant groups and others to the benzodiazepines group. Medicines, belonging to the benzodiazepines group are fast acting and show results in one or two weeks if taken regularly. Moreover, they start acting as soon as you pop one in the mouth and can stop the attacks from becoming full blown. However, their span of influence is very short and that is why one often becomes addicted to it.

Alprazolam, known under the trade name of Xanax is one such medication belonging to the benzodiazepines group. In the USA, it has been put under schedule IV under the controlled Substance Act. However, this medicine has made its place in the treatment for anxiety attack because of its fast acting quality. If taken with care, this medicine can bring great relief to anxiety attack patients. However, it cannot cure your anxiety attacks; neither should you take it for along term regularly. Of course, your psychiatrist knows all this. He will definitely warn you about the bad effects it can have on your body and your nervous system. Unless the condition is acute, he may not prescribe it at all.

Xanax falls in the first category of anxiety disorder medications. Xanax is merely the brand name; its genetic name is Alprazolam. It acts on the central nervous system to produce a calming effect. If you take one at the onset, it can stop the attack from becoming full blown. Many patients carry this medicine all the time. As such, it should not be taken more than eight weeks on regular basis.

Trying to break a drug habit can be very difficult and you will definitely face a lot of problems. So, the next time, your doctor prescribes the anti-anxiety medications, make sure you have all the questions ready for him or her. The first question that you must not miss to ask is: Do these anti-anxiety drugs have side effects? If the doctor says a yes, ask him or her what the side effects are. You need to be mentally prepared for the consequences of the ant-anxiety medications.

One more thing to be noted is that you may show tolerance to the anti-anxiety drugs. This means that as time goes by, you will need higher and higher doses of the same medication to get the same results as previously. This has to stop at some place; you cannot go on an on with the same drug. Check out with your doctor for some mild medications that will give you the desired effect with minimum harm to the body.

However, Xanax or any other medicine of benzodiazepines group can never cure your panic attacks; they can at the most keep them under control. Antidepressants like SSRIs, MAOIs, tricyclic too blocs the symptoms only by altering the neurotransmitter configurations, but cannot cure anxiety disorder. The only benefit of the later group is that they can be taken for a longer period without developing drug dependency. If you really want to cure the anxiety disorder, undergo psychotherapy while you continue with the anxiety disorder medicines as directed by the doctor.

The overall orientation of Sandra Maitri group will be the shifting over time of one's identity and sense of self from the personality or ego to our deeper and ultimate nature — Being; and just as importantly, the integration of this experiential knowledge such that one's everyday life becomes a lived and fulfilling expression of that deeper nature. The confluence in recent decades of the streams of psychological and spiritual wisdom afford a wide range of unprecedented avenues of access to spiritual development. This confluence will be an important part of the orientation of this group.

Did you know?

The Power of Nine is your Key to Happiness and Joy.

There are nine Temperaments. Fifty percent (50%) of your happiness is determined by your Temperament.

Understanding your Temperament Type allows you to work with it and increase your own happiness. The ways individual people inherently view the world/themselves and process information are not the same but do tend to group in different clumps.

Pick the person about that you admire, like and think you are like and click on that number below and listen to the Video.

One way to view this distribution is as nine basic Temperaments Types. They all need different experiences to be really happy.

What do they really want?

Temperament One examples are: Hillary Clinton, Tom Brokaw, Martha Stewart, Al Gore, and Tony Randall. These people want to be good. They have high ideals and value and are attracted to situations where those ideals are met. They want to realize all their potential and help others actualize theirs. They envision making the world a better place to live.

Temperament Two examples are: Bill Cosby, Alan Alda, Nancy Reagan, Dolly Parton, and Pat Boone. These people want to know they are loving. They want to nurture others and foster relationships. They value and are attracted to love. They envision making the world a more loving place to live.

Temperament Three examples are: Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, and Bill Clinton. These people are attracted to and value productivity, industry, and competence. They envision making the world more productive, organized, efficient, and smooth running. They see the universe as chaos and want to really make it a cosmos, a harmonious and orderly system.

Would You Like Help to Determine your Temperament?

Temperament Four examples are: Michael Jackson, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage, Neil Diamond, and Angelina Jolie. These people want to be unique individuals with lots of originality. They enjoy putting their personal touch on everything in which they are involved. They also value beauty and want to make the world a more beautiful place to live.

Temperament Five examples are: Bill Gates, Albert Einstein, Howard Hughes, George Lucas, and Karl Marx. These people long for wisdom, understanding, knowledge, truth. They want to make the world a more enlightened place by discovering what is real and true and making it more intelligible to others.

Temperament Six examples are: Helen Palmer, Michael Moore, Tom Hanks, Rush Limbaugh, Richard Nixon, and Mel Gibson. These people want to make the world a safer, more secure, more reliable, more trustworthy place to live and they will question anyone’s authority in their effort to do so. They value loyalty in themselves and others and stand by their commitments.

Would You Like Help to Determine your Temperament?

Temperament Seven examples are: Robin Williams, Steve Jobs, Tom Hanks, Anthony Quinn, Richard Branson and Terry Bradshaw. These people want to enjoy life and experience all its possibilities. They value joy and variety. They envision making the world a more delightful place to live.

Temperament Eight examples are: Martin Luther King, Jr., FDR, Sean Connery, Donald Trump, and John Wayne. These people want to live life fully and freely. They are attracted to, appreciate, and effectively use power. They envision using their strength to influence others and bring about a more just world where power and resources are equitably distributed.

Temperament Nine examples are: Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln, Jimmy Stewart, Carl Jung, and Dwight Eisenhower. These people want to feel at one with others and at home in the universe. They value peace, harmony, and unity. They envision making the world a more harmonious, ecumenical, and comfortable place to live for everyone.

Would You Like Help to Determine your Temperament?

Why do we use numbers?

Names such as: Ones, are the:, Perfectionist, Reformer, Judge, Crusader, Critic are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.

We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.

The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.

No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society. You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”

People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.

The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.

Why aren’t all people with a given Temperament Type successful?

You probably know a bunch of people with the same Temperament Type. Why are some successful and others are not. Why the difference? The difference is Emotional Intelligence. We use Emotional Quotient. (EQ) as a shorthand to describe Emotional Intelligence.

A person may have a high IQ. They did well in school, maybe have a college diploma or even an advanced degree. They may even be in MENSA, the select high-IQ club and still fail in business and relationships. Why are they not successful?

The answer:

Your IQ determines 20 % of your success, which leaves 80% to other forces. This is stated by Daniel Goleman the Author of “Emotional Intelligence.”

A person with a high IQ does not mean they know how to manage their thoughts and feelings any more successfully than a person with a low IQ. Success requires taking the emotional data, making sense of that data, and integrating it into your decision-making. People with higher EQ does this better.

By increasing your EQ you can use your thoughts and emotions of your Temperament Type to make the best possible decisions. Increased EQ help you get optimal results from your relationships with yourself and others.

EQ challenges the conventional belief that emotions are in the way of good decisions. By increasing your EQ it is possible to learn how to use your emotions to make better decisions. By increasing your EQ, it is possible to increase your wisdom and energy required for high performance. The Increasing your EQ is a teachable life skill. If people get better at these life skills, everyone benefits: The brain doesn't distinguish between being a more empathetic manager and a more empathetic father
