Queering the Enneagram: LGBTQIA Inclusion in the Enneagram Community
One of the Enneagram’s greatest strengths and contributions to humanity is how it exponentially increases our understanding, compassion and cooperation with others who are seeming very different from us. In a sense we stop marginalizing others. The LGBTQIA community has historically been marginalized to an extreme, including shunning, abuse, and introjected self-hatred from the dominant culture. Abi Robins has integrated the Enneagram into working with the LGBTQIA community with astounding results.
Learn how:
- People who identify as “Queers” are healing faster and becoming more empowered by working with the Enneagram
- How different types work with relating to these issues
- The inspiring ways the LGBTQIA community is modeling how we can all become more inclusive, compassionate, and truly loving
Abi Robins
Abi Robins (they/them) is a trained Enneagram teacher who studied with Helen Palmer, Marion Gilbert, Peter O’Hanrahan and others through The Narrative Enneagram in Menlo Park, CA. Abi is also a CIAYT yoga therapist with the International Association of Yoga Therapists.
Abi’s teaching combines the deep and transformative insight of the Enneagram with the holistic and down-to-earth practices of yoga therapy. Abi seeks to share these two powerful systems, to help people live more fulfilling and meaningful lives by better understanding themselves and those around them.
As a queer, non-binary Enneagram teacher and yoga therapist, Abi also works tirelessly to bring quality teaching in both areas to the queer community. Abi seeks to empower sexual and gender minorities with self-understanding, self-compassion and embodied practices to heal from the trauma inherent in existing on the margins. Abi also hopes to educate other yoga and Enneagram teachers on how to best serve the queer community through their own teaching.
