Emotional Education : The Enneagram Three

The enneagram is a personality typing tool that focuses on your fears and your motivations over behavior. Each type may have affinities to certain oils to help them emotionally <3. To learn more about the Enneagram and what your type might be: https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/

Threes are the great Achievers! They also are very good at compartmentalizing to get things done- this comes with its pros and cons.

The greatest emotional struggle of a Three is feeling "less-than" from time to time, forgetting their inherent value and then feeling the need to manage others' opinions of them when their plans for success don't turn out the way they wanted. The secondary struggle 3s is giving their feelings space and room to be felt and processed. When 3s do feel- they feel big! Oils can help the time of feeling and processing be a safe and comforting experience <3

HERE ARE SOME OILS THAT CAN HELP THREES WITH THESE THINGS!

  • Frankincense for grounding in who you really are and meditating on what you love and appreciate about yourself apart from your achievements, this oil can help connect you to your Inherent Value as a child of God and help promote a safe connection to your higher power <3

  • Acceptance over the heart, throat, and wrists for when you feel that you have to keep up appearances.

  • Hawaiian Sandalwood on your forehead (third eye) for connecting to your feelings when it seems hard

  • Helichrysum behind ears and over wrists to help feelings come to the surface that are suppressed

  • White Angelica over the heart for feelings of freedom when you feel restless (like maybe during this stay-at-home time!)

Where are our Enneagram Threes at? You guys are the first "doing-type" (3s, 7s, 8s) we have discussed so far- how is it going as "Do-ers" stuck at home more?
