Enneagram Integration (also called Security or Growth) and Disintegration (also called Stress) Arrows are aspects of our Enneagram style that we're connected to -- to some degree, or for others, to a very large degree. We're proposing that it's possible to have unhealthy connection to your Integration type and a healthy connection to your Disintegration type. In this episode specifically, we're talking about this fascinating (and even controversial) topic: the possibility of having an unhealthy connection to the Direction of Integration for the Gut and Feeling Center Types. We covered the Thinking Types in Episode #8.  This concept may seem unusual because normally an Enneagram Type's style tends to shift in seemingly healthy ways when in a place of security (Integration). In other words, you tend to take on the healthy characteristics of your Enneagram Type's Integration number when you feel really well or secure. In previous episodes, we described what this looks like for all the types -- broken up into what Triad (or Center) the Types belong to. But in this episode, we're describing how it's possible to shift in seemingly unhealthy ways and take on unhealthy aspects of the Integration Arrow. In the next episode, we'll be talking about how it's possible to have an Unhealthy connection to the Disintegration Arrows. We hope you enjoy exploring this unusual Enneagram topic!
