Sinsomnia makes an honest attempt to challenge our human motivations and behaviors by exploring the absolute witchcraft of the Psyche. We work on discovering where our habitual personalities can be transformed and connected to an inner source of guidance and wisdom. The topics we discuss include the Enneagram, dreams, mythology, fairy tales, Jungian psychology, art and beauty, personal stories, experiences, and more.

71 - Experiencing Essence with John Luckovich

Kristen is joined by Enneagram teacher and author John Luckovich to talk about his upcoming retreat in New York City called ‘Experiencing Essence’. The two discuss what essence is, how to cultivate it, and the many ways we are already relating (or lacking relation) to this substance within us.

Essence is the seed of consciousness at the core of our being. When we make efforts to be present, it is Essence that either shows up—or remains obscured. While everyone's Essence is unique, it expresses itself through nine fundamental qualities that shape the distinct character of each Enneagram type: Power, Harmony, Integrity, Love, Value, Depth, Insight, Truth, and Freedom. True growth requires direct connection with these qualities. Where the ego goes wrong is that we try to find Essence through the Instinctual Drives, confusing Being and Function. We will explore what it means to “live in two worlds”." - John Luckovich
