The Hidden Battle

The exploration of defense mechanisms within the Enneagram framework offers a profound lens through which we can understand ourselves and others more deeply. Each Enneagram type's unique defense mechanism is a key to unlocking the door to personal growth, relationship improvement, and greater emotional intelligence. By identifying and working through these subconscious strategies, individuals can begin to free themselves from patterns that may have once served as protection but now act as barriers to true connection and self-realization.
