Bringing Brain-Based Solutions to Your Marriage with Dr. Jerome Lubbe
Dr. Jerome helps us to understand how we develop provocative differences in marriage over time, differences that can cause conflict but that are essentially important for brain health or neuroplasticity. In this fascinating interview on brain and body health in marriage, we look at both our top Enneagram proficiency areas as well as those in which we have a lower aptitude - we need both to level us out. Dr. Jerome also helps us to take small steps to learn to practice pacing with one another better as friends, partners, and companionship through breathwork and healthy evolving together in the head, heart, and body. Join us for this important topic as we learn to calm down our sympathetic nervous systems and truly help our bodies to know we can handle whatever comes our way!

Beyond the Enneagram with Marilyn Vancil, 9, Spiritual Processing in Marriage and Family Issues
When we're considering how to glow or even relate with a spouse from a different family pattern than us, we are often called to not only marital or personal but spiritual work as we come across our unhealthy inner scripts. It's wonderful to get to process this topic and to do a spiritual exercise to the depths with Marilyn Vancil, 9, Spiritual Director, Author, and Enneagram teacher as she launches her new book, Beyond the Enneagram. Marilyn has not only been studying the Enneagram for over thirty years but she also has been married to her husband Jeff, Enneagram 3 for over fifty years. Marilyn is truly showing us an exhibition of the glow possible across seasons and her passion for helping people to listen to God, experience inner soul restoration, and enjoy a life of freedom and fullness as their true God-gifted self is seen.
