“You are the window through which you see the world.”
~ George Bernard Shaw
Enneagram Portland invites you to this thoughtful, contemplative weekend of “Enneagram R & R” – Relaxation of our types and Remembering our spiritual states.
In the lovely, peaceful environment of Still Meadow Retreat Center, you will have time and space to explore the inner landscapes of the nine Virtues and Holy Ideas,
as well as the outer landscapes of forest, creek, and meadow. Walk the labyrinth, sit under an old apple tree, join with like-spirited companions for soul-warming meals and soul-searching discussions.
What is the window through which you see the world? And what does it mean to “relax your type?” Begin by stepping outside the busy, noisy stimulation of daily life, relaxing the body, and giving yourself the gift of time to remember your essential self.
Our weekend together will include teachings and discussions on the nine Holy Ideas and the nine Virtues, guidance for self-reflection, and time for drawing, writing, photography, walking, dancing...whatever opens your window to a more expansive view. And no retreat is complete without some time for laughter, levity, and Ennea-tainment for balance!
This retreat is open to anyone who knows their Enneagram type.

About the retreat fees:
We are grateful that you have chosen to be generous with yourself and others in joining this retreat community. In many wisdom traditions, the practice of Generosity forms the foundation of spiritual practice, and helps us recognize and practice our natural interconnectedness. As life gives generously to us, so we give generously back to life. We belong to what we support, and what we support nourishes us.
