This lecture can help you find the easiest way to understand the Enneagram, namely how and why the type formed the way it did. And for that, we can look at the type in terms of its underlying energy. Each of us has three energy centers: the center of the head, the center of the body and the center of the heart. Centers are one of the core concepts of the Enneagram. The Enneagram theory distinguishes between the Instinctive Center (the center of the body), the Emotional Center (the center of the heart), and the Intellectual Center (the center of the head). Each person habitually uses one of the three Centers to understand the world around him. Centers interact with each other in a certain way, and such interaction enhances the manifestation of habitual patterns of behavior that are characteristic of a particular type.Each Enneatype belongs to a specific Center and does not get there by chance, it is formed as a result of a special relationship personality to a certain range of issues that characterize this Center. The centers indicate where the main point of our imbalance is located, as well as where the problems and defense mechanisms of our ego accumulate, and the main ways in which we become less aware and limited.Understanding the mechanisms interaction of the Centers in the structure of our personality, we can untie many "Gordian" knots that hinder our development and personal growth.
