Russ Hudson
And Guest Faculty
Jessica Dibb
Discover insights and practices for exploring the Enneagram through its spiritual origins — to understand its unique relevance in this troubled time and to connect to presence, your soul purpose, and your contribution in the world.
Would it be safe to say that you’ve been on a journey of awakening and personal growth for a while?
We know that cultivating the perfect healing path is a lifelong journey, and many people return time and again to their search for new roads toward inspiration, self-understanding, and transformation.
The truth is, lessons learned from outside yourself are not going to “fix” you... instead, it’s time to turn to a deep place within you — maybe deeper than you’ve ever gone — into the most jagged crevices of your inner world, where true healing can take place.
One of the most powerful resources for guidance and self-inquiry is the Enneagram. And the way to connect most deeply to its teachings is to understand its rich mystical roots — the Western spiritual traditions out of which its insights were born.
The rapid rise in the popularity of the Enneagram system has been remarkable. There are always new books and workshops addressing this approach to gaining insight into our personalities...
... and most of the popular wisdom centers on the Enneagram types and the awareness of our tendencies.
However, few of the modern purveyors of this system know much about its origins, or the ways it’s been part of spiritual traditions for quite some time.
According to renowned Enneagram teacher Russ Hudson, the most important Enneagram teachings take us on a voyage of internal inquiry and presence, and help us develop a vast awareness of the different components of our psyche.
Experience Russ and guest teacher Jessica Dibb in a unique and experiential 7-step exploration of this complex and rich system, and how its power lies in your orientation to the ancient traditions from which it sprang.
As Russ walks you through the Enneagram’s historical context — its origins in religious and wisdom orientations — your capacity to benefit from its teachings will increase exponentially...
... heightening your capacity to be with the stress and difficulties of this time, and bolstering your fortitude to go on. You’ll discover a reinvigorated sense of purpose and meaning, and an experience of your life in the greater cosmos.
Dive Deep Into the 3 Centers Through Mind, Body, and Spirit Practices
The promise of all spirituality is to help us deal with our suffering. In addition to teaching us how to find presence, consciousness, and pure awareness, the Enneagram shows us how to navigate our suffering and the suffering of others.
In this groundbreaking program, Russ systematically takes you on a tour of the Enneagram’s ancient beginnings — including its roots in early Christianity, mystical Judaism, Sufism, and Islamic mysticism.
He’ll show you how it’s part of a deeper system that avails you of the transformative power of grace, and how it can transform the way you live, relate, and work with others.
You’ll explore the capacity of each of the centers:
- The body (and embodiment) — responsible for your ability to manifest the Divine in this world
- The heart — which ties together the Divine, the Earth, and the human, so we can become whole
- The head — the true mind, which develops our receptivity, openness, stillness, creativity, and prayer... and opens us to a direct experience of heaven
One of the attractions of Eastern traditions is their explicit contemplative practices. In our modern world, many people are hungry for the integration of such practices into Western spirituality... and the Enneagram provides that.
In fact, two full sessions of this course are devoted to profound experiential practices, guided by Enneagram innovator Jessica Dibb.
During the 7 sessions of this wisdom-packed course, you’ll also:
- Learn how Enneagram teachings are woven into the early development of the mystical views of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, and are part of the history of Western faith traditions
- Develop a correct and highly experiential understanding of the 3 centers so you can expand your authentic personal development work with the Enneagram
- Be guided in breath and sensation practices to bring your attention to points of presence in your body, so you can develop its essential energies
- Begin the journey of the heart to restore meaning and purpose in your life
- Explore practices to increase your awareness of others’ hearts... and, with them, access more kindness, truth, and real intimacy
- Dive deep into the relationship between meditation and prayer, and the role of the latter in spiritual traditions
- Cultivate “quiet mind” — the source of direct knowing and original creativity
- Learn many of the important contributions of modern psychology to Enneagram work... and how to bring psychological insight into your self-awareness process
- Experience methods for expanding and deepening relaxation and your capacity to be with whatever’s arising in you and in life
- And much more...
George Gurdjieff brought the Enneagram symbol to the modern world and the West to guide humanity through a pivotal moment, much like the global crisis we’re currently enduring. Its goal was meant to help wake people up and keep them moving forward by responding to circumstances in a more productive way — based in love.
More dire than ever before, the Enneagram as a path to wholeness can assist you on your journey into your true humanity, your contribution, and a deep sense of truth and purpose — to help not only navigate, but survive these troubled times.
What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules
In this 7-part transformational intensive, Russ guides you through the fundamental wisdom traditions and practices you’ll need to successfully develop your spiritual growth and find your presence, true essential Self, and purpose.
The Beauty of On-Demand
This course features step-by-step teachings and experiential practices from Russ. Each session builds harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to find your presence and create new ways of responding to others and the circumstances of your life — especially during trying times.
Module 1: The Enneagram’s Original Context — Its Roots & Rising From Spiritual Tradition
In this opening session, Russ explains some of the original orientations that gave rise to the Enneagram teachings, and offers ways to make use of these orientations on your spiritual journey. You’ll learn some of the history behind this system, and how it’s informed mystics through the ages.
Russ shares how the Enneagram grew out of the contemplative practices of Western mystical traditions — such as early mystical Christianity, Judaism, and Islam — as well as Greek philosophy and even more ancient spiritual traditions.
And you’ll learn that the Enneagram teachings represent an early form of psychology, which explicitly saw human beings as souls... and was more attentive to the mystery of our makeup than our psychological patterns and defenses.
In this overview module, you’ll explore how:
- The Enneagram is part of a broader and deeper spirituality — a more expansive view of what human beings are and what our place is in the cosmos
- Enneagram teachings are woven into the early development of the mystical views of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, and part of the history of those 3 Western faith traditions
- The purpose of the Enneagram is more about guiding us to live a life of presence and compassion than it is about defining who we are
- A correct and experiential understanding of the 3 centers is pivotal to achieving authentic personal developmental work with the Enneagram
- The knowledge of your type can be used as a key element in your spiritual practices, though it’s only the beginning of what the Enneagram teachings are about
- The Enneagram exists within a deeper system of knowledge about opening yourself to the transformative power of grace — as part of a movement to transform the way we live, relate, and work together
- What the traditional terms in the Enneagram (passions, virtues, centers, etc.) actually mean and how they fit into this deeper context
Module 2: Embodied Presence — Bringing Spirit Into the Living World (Body-Centered Types: 8, 9 & 1)
Western spirituality seems to overlook the importance of embodiment — the understanding that if we’re really present, we’re present in our bodies and in this world.
The more you live from a grounded relaxation in your body, the more sensitively you perceive the interconnectedness of life, and the subtleties of the spiritual realms beyond the physical.
In this second session, Russ focuses on this central teaching from spiritual tradition, while paying particular attention to types Eight, Nine, and One on the Enneagram. Each of those types offer lessons about the challenges and opportunities of awakening through your body.
You’ll also explore how the process of embodiment is crucial to entering into authentic relatedness with others... and is foundational in creating the kind of society our spiritual traditions present as a possibility.
During this session, you’ll discover:
- The body as the key to all authentic centering practices, and how body awareness is the most efficient pathway into the experience of presence
- How sensation and breath are the keys to awakening the belly center
- That the lessons of the belly center aim to bring your spiritual awareness into the way you live
- How the three instincts (self-preservation, sexual, and social) help you learn to balance the energies you need to live your life... and have less to do with being a type
- Breath and sensation practices to bring your attention to points of presence in your body, so you can develop its essential energies
Module 3: Practices for Embodiment & Conscious Living
This module features breathwork facilitator and Enneagram teacher Jessica Dibb.
In order to transform your life, awareness needs to integrate with physical experience. Only then can your responses, choices, and actions flow powerfully and gracefully from the strength of physical reality... the fullness of feeling connected to life... and the transmission of your spiritual nature.
In this module, Jessica provides some instruction... but the primary focus will be on experiential learning.
She guides you through various practices to strengthen your living sense of vitality and the intelligence of the life force itself — using breathing, sensation, movement, and sound. In this way, you’ll receive the full flow of life energy and its innate wisdom.
Through these practices, you’ll also develop a sense of aliveness, relaxed groundedness, harmonious engagement, and inner balance and alignment.
In this experiential module, you’ll learn and experience:
- Ways to use breath and sensation to restore and deepen your experience of presence
- Pathways to invigorate and feel into your sense of aliveness — sensing life itself in your body
- Methods for expanding and deepening relaxation and your capacity to be with whatever’s arising in you and in life
- How it feels to inhabit your inner alignment, through a dynamic approach to more balance and connection
- Specific practices you can customize and integrate into your daily life as part of your ongoing inner work and self-actualization
Module 4: The Awakening of the Heart — Integrating Compassion & Loving-Kindness Into Your Humanity (Heart Types: 2, 3 & 4)
The heart is a central theme in most spiritual traditions, and its importance can’t be underestimated. However, it can’t fulfill its specific role and purpose in our transformation without us having a correct relationship with the intelligence of the body and true mind.
Presence changes the experience of all three centers... certainly the heart center.
In this session, you’ll discover that emotions aren’t just feelings... they’re also characteristic of presence and Spirit. Presence shifts us from emotional reactivity to a deeper well of compassion, patience, kindness, positivity, and love.
Here, Russ addresses the ideas of the passions and virtues, and how they arise from early Christian teachings... as well as from elements of Greek philosophy.
You’ll explore how these ancient ideas pertain to you — here and now — and how to experience the alchemical transformation of the heart described in the practices and teachings of Western traditions.
In this middle module, Russ guides you to discover:
- The heart as the seat of transformation... and how “a change of heart” is accomplished
- How to move out of reaction and efforts to control, to a sincere surrender to grace and to a deeper reality
- That the traditional role of the passions and their transformation into the virtues can become a central part of your practice
- Aspects of presence, such as the power of real contact and connection
- Why the journey of the heart restores meaning and purpose in your life
- A deep dive into what’s often called “The Beloved” — the great mystery at the core of our consciousness
Module 5: Practices for the Purification of the Heart
This module features breathwork facilitator and Enneagram teacher Jessica Dibb.
When you reconnect the heart with your embodied presence, you can hold your emotional reactivity and remaining unresolved issues with kindness, compassion, and a healing response.
The work with the heart center is often described as a process of purification. In this session, Jessica shares how, although your true heart, your deeper heart, is always here... it’s often overshadowed by the intensity and persistence of your emotional patterns and issues. Through practice, you learn to recognize the subtle yet oceanic depths of the heart and bring them forth to heal the egoic patterns you encounter.
Jessica enhances this work through breath, sensation, movement, and voice practices. You’ll directly experience your responsiveness to the hurts and contractions of your heart, as well as the energies of your heart’s life force and yearning.
You’ll learn how to build the capacity to focus on what arises in your chest and in the overall field of feelings and emotions... and use it as grist for the purification process.
In this experiential session, you’ll learn and experience:
- A process of relaxation into the holding, tender, and responsive aspects of presence — the natural sense of Loving-Kindness — and how it can heal your pain and reactivity
- Methods to harmonize the heart with your physical embodiment of presence
- Ways to be with the core suffering of your passion, and experience how it can be transformed into your virtue
- Practices to contact the intrinsic value in yourself and all of life, and allow it to guide you into the depth of your heart and the mystery of life
- Practices to increase your awareness of others’ hearts, and access more kindness, truth, and real intimacy with them
- The relationship between meditation and prayer, and the role of the latter in spiritual traditions
Module 6: Cultivate the Receptive Mind — Prayer & Receptivity to Receive Guidance (Mind Types: 5, 6, 7)
In many modern versions of spirituality, the mind is often given short shrift. Some teachers will even say, “You don’t need your head. Just follow your heart.” But this presupposes a capacity to listen to the heart... and listening is a function of the head center.
Spiritual realization occurs in the mind. We begin to see reality and ourselves in a new way. And, it’s through the awakened mind that we discover new, creative ways to address the challenges in our lives and in our world.
In this session, Russ shows the relationship between the ordinary, personality-based mind and the deeper mind — which is the source of most of your innovation and creativity... as well as your sense of inner guidance and discernment.
You’ll explore the relationship between your inner mental activity and what Russ refers to as the “ground of mind” — which has always been a focus of any real spiritual tradition. You’ll look at how the Holy Ideas of the Enneagram fit into an ancient context, and engage in practices and orientations that facilitate access to your source of inner silence, peace, and direct knowing.
In this module, you’ll discover:
- How the fixations of the Enneagram types are specifically the ways our mind becomes stuck in patterns that limit our perception and our capacity for direct knowing
- Ways to cultivate “quiet mind” — the source of direct knowing and original creativity
- The function of the Holy Ideas within the larger scheme of the Enneagram teachings
- What “non-duality” means within the context of the teachings you’ve been exploring, and its place within the Enneagram framework
- How the heart and mind work together when they’re in relation with each other
Module 7: Ancient Teachings in the Modern World — The Immediacy of Bringing It All Together
We live in an extraordinary time. Not only do we have many ancient teachings and practices readily available to any sincere seeker. We also have discoveries of modern psychology and science that offer profound new vistas of the inner worlds these traditions were exploring.
Modern Enneagram work partakes of both. We’re rooted in the clear vision of these teachings, but also acquiring new tools, methods, and insights from developmental psychology, evolutionary biology, modern physics, and many other sources.
It’s becoming increasingly apparent to more and more of us that we need to make a leap in human understanding and behavior, so we can co-create new systems for navigating the rapidly changing global situations now upon us.
Gurdjieff, who brought the Enneagram teachings to the attention of the modern world, openly asserted that this work is being brought to the public at this time to assist us in this transition.
So, how does this work help us contribute to a sane and equitable future? How will it help us create sustainable societies that our descendants can thrive in? How can this work help us access and put into action the necessary changes of habit and behavior that are demanded of us?
As this profound program wraps up, you’ll begin to see that your inner work is not an act of selfishness, but a way to support you in opening to a larger sense of purpose and contribution.
In this final course session, you’ll discover:
- Some of the important contributions of modern psychology to the Enneagram work... and how to bring psychological insight into your process
- How to progress from working on yourself to working more consciously with others for the sake of a better world
- Ways in which the insights of science can open you to a reality far beyond our usual perception of the world
- The importance of “taking an aim,” and how your capacity to practice is directly related to the impact and power of your aim
- How to create new forms of community based on a more inclusive, immediate, heartful, and awakened mode of communication and cooperation

What Graduates of Russ’ Courses Are Saying...
“... helped me beyond imagination, to truly embrace the inherent traits of my type...”
Russ’ course coincided with the tragic breakup of my relationship due to my own lifelong defensive patterns of behaviors. Following this course has helped me beyond imagination, to truly embrace the inherent traits of my type (4) as biased by the instinctual drives. I would go so far as to say this course was life-changing and I cannot thank Russ enough.
— Mark Drax, London, England
“My spiritual life is shifting away from ‘dogma’ into a clearer understanding of how marvelous and amazing creation is...”
Working with the Enneagram has been life altering, and Russ Hudson’s courses (including his latest) have opened up new avenues of thinking for me. My spiritual life is shifting away from “dogma” into a clearer understanding of how marvelous and amazing creation is — and how our diverse views are all part of that. I look forward to continuing to work with the insights that these Enneagram teachings have brought me.
— Harriette Heibel, Martinez, California
“... uplifting and healing at the same time.”
Russ Hudson is the best Enneagram teacher I know. His knowledge, presence, warm humor, and genuine caring is uplifting and healing at the same time.

— Sari Heiskanen, Finland
“... clues and practices on how to go deeper spiritually and move forward in life.”
Russ has such a deep and experiential connection with the Enneagram and such an open mind that I came away after each session with a deeper understanding, more clarification around my stuckness, and more clues and practices on how to go deeper spiritually and move forward in life. It opened my mind to more questions, my heart to more relatedness, and, for the first time, the simple, repetitive practices engaged my body in my process of transformation.
— Mary, South Africa
“...helped me value my humanity...”
With in-depth practices, I was able to use the tools from this class to effect significant shifts in some of the important interactions of my life. And now that I’ve been able to see and feel the effects, it will be easier to continue to use the practices in other situations where I would normally get caught up in reaction or avoid stepping out into the unknown.
— Mary Jane, Centre Hall, Pennsylvania

“Puzzles I had been pondering for years... were resolved...”
I was able to grasp what happens to pull me away from my experience of presence, as well as the operation of all of the nine Enneagram energies in me. Puzzles that I had been pondering for years about my relationship to receiving were resolved, as I experienced the energy of my “missing piece.” The term “life-changing” is used a lot, I know. But I can’t think of another one that more accurately describes my experience.
