In this third episode on the Embodied Enneagram, Peter O’Hanrahan takes a deep dive into the somatic patterns and neurobiological characteristics of the nine Enneagram types. He explains how each type has a unique bodily response and defense mechanism, rooted in deeper emotional layers. Understanding these patterns is essential for personal growth, psychological development, and even somatic therapy.

Peter emphasizes that the three centers (body, heart, and head) are not just a conceptual model, but that each type has specific tension patterns and survival strategies embedded in the body. He walks the listeners through all nine types, revealing how these patterns influence behavior, emotions, and even physical health.

• Type 1 (The Reformer): High muscle tension and top-down control. Anger is often suppressed, leading to chronic physical tension, especially in the diaphragm and abdomen. Their self-discipline can be both a strength and a source of rigidity.
• Type 8 (The Challenger): High-intensity responses to life, whether positive or negative. Eights experience strong physical assertiveness, often reacting with anger when faced with control or restriction. Their challenge is learning to regulate this intensity without suppressing it.
• Type 9 (The Peacemaker): A natural ability for self-soothing, often through deep belly breathing. This can lead to a tendency to retreat into comfort and avoid confrontation, which sometimes results in low energy levels or a lack of assertiveness.

• Type 2 (The Helper): A high number of mirror neurons make Twos extremely attuned to others' emotions. Their instinct to move toward people and offer help makes it difficult for them to set boundaries or prioritize their own needs.
• Type 3 (The Achiever): High-energy, action-oriented individuals who are strongly attuned to external expectations. Their constant drive can lead to physical burnout if they don’t learn to slow down and reconnect with their own needs.
• Type 4 (The Individualist): Highly sensitive to emotional and aesthetic stimuli. Fours tend to take in emotions deeply, which can lead to intense artistic expression but also emotional overwhelm.

• Type 5 (The Observer): An extremely sensitive nervous system that often withdraws into the mind to avoid overwhelm. This can manifest as a sense of physical detachment or dissociation, requiring intentional effort to reconnect with the body.
• Type 6 (The Loyalist): The most sensitive alarm system of all types. Their fight, flight, or freeze response is highly active, leading to either cautious avoidance (phobic Sixes) or bold confrontation (counter-phobic Sixes). Understanding this neurobiological response explains the wide behavioral range within this type.
• Type 7 (The Enthusiast): Physically active, fast-moving, and always seeking stimulation. Sevens experience a deep-seated fear of limitation, driving them to avoid discomfort. Their challenge is learning to stay present and embrace stillness without feeling trapped.

Peter concludes that the neurobiological structures of the Enneagram types are not problems to be fixed, but existential challenges to be understood. Recognizing these bodily patterns offers a powerful pathway to self-awareness and transformation. He emphasizes that the Enneagram is not just a psychological tool—it is to be integrated with body-based healing methods like breathwork, creating deep, lasting change.

Why is the Embodied Enneagram essential for true healing,mgrowth and transformation? In this episode, we explore the deep connection between neurobiology, the body, emotions, and personality, revealing why real change requires more than intellectual understanding.

Key Insights:

• The Enneagram is more than personality – type is rooted in neurobiological patterns.
• Our typological structure emerges before psychological coping mechanisms, shaped by innate temperament and body patterns.
• Wilhelm Reich’s concept of body armoring explains how breath and muscular tension influence our type and personal limitations.
• Three centers of intelligence – Gurdjieff’s teachings, now supported by neuroscience, show how the heart, head, and body function as distinct yet interconnected systems.
• The impact of bodywork: how breathing, movement, and somatic methods contribute to personal growth and deep healing.

This episode is essential for Enneagram teachers, coaches, therapists, and anyone seeking a deeper, more embodied approach to self-development.

In Part Three, we explore the Embodied Enneagram patterns of each type and their real-life implications.

Key Takeaways

🔹The Origins of the Embodied Enneagram – How Peter’s background in body-based therapy led to integrating somatics with the Enneagram.

🔹Why Talk Therapy Alone Isn’t Enough – The role ofbody armor, emotional containment, and physical release in deep transformation.

🔹How Each Enneagram Type Holds Tension Differently – Why some types needdirect challenge (Eights) while others needgentle trust-building (Fives).

🔹The Role of Emotional Expression – Why simply sensing the body isn’t enough—true transformation requiressafe, guided expression.

🔹The Pitfalls of having a Great Method

🗣️"The Enneagram is not just about psychology; it’s about how our character structure is literally shaped in the body." – Peter O’Hanrahan

🗣️"For years, Enneagram teachers focused on the mind and emotions. But the body has a memory of its own, and if we ignore it, we miss a huge part of the healing process." – Peter O’Hanrahan

🗣️"I was very happy for about two months… and then the other shoe dropped. There was a lot of work to be done."

🗣️"Different Enneagram types have different physical defenses—anger, withdrawal, control. The body holds it all."

Trauma and the Enneagram: A Crucial Intersection

In the latest episode of The Narrative Tradition Podcast, we explore further the critical intersection between trauma and personality structure with Sharon K. Ball.

The conversation highlights how trauma influences personality structures and why understanding trauma is essential for therapists, coaches, and Enneagram practitioners.

Whether you're a therapist working with trauma or an Enneagram teacher or coach helping clients navigate their inner world, this episode is packed with insights that will transform your understanding of personal healing and growth.

“Some patterns we see in the Enneagram are not just type-related—they

are trauma responses.” – Sharon K. Ball

Many trauma therapists already understand that healing cannot happen through words alone.

Trauma-informed Enneagram work allows practitioners to differentiate between type structure and unresolved trauma, offering clients a deeper level of healing.

Big T and Little t Trauma

A crucial discussion in the episode is the differentiation between Big T and Little t trauma:

* Big T trauma includes extreme events such as war, natural disasters, or abuse.

* Little t trauma refers to more subtle, chronic experiences such as emotional neglect, unhealthy relationship patterns, or societal discrimination.

Many individuals fail to recognize their own trauma because they compare their experiences to more severe cases.

As Sharon explains, trauma is not only psychological but also physical, affecting the nervous system and shaping behavior over time.


Takeaways

🔹 Recognize trauma responses vs. type patterns – Not all reactions are “just the personality.”

🔹 Use the body as a diagnostic tool – Where a person holds tension can reveal hidden emotional wounds.

🔹 Understand ‘big T’ vs. ‘little t’ trauma and stress – Even subtle life experiences can shape the way we relate to others.

🔹 Emphasize co-regulation – Trauma healing requires another human being walking alongside us.

Trauma isolates us. Healing reconnects us.” – Sharon K. Ball

Masterclass: Healing Trauma, Repairing Relationships

Sharon will expand on these topics in a three-day masterclass at the Enneagram Europe Summer School. The workshop will cover:

* Identifying different types of trauma.

* Distinguishing trauma responses from Enneagram type patterns.

* Understanding how trauma is stored in the nervous system.

* Practical tools for trauma healing.

Sharon’s approach integrates both theoretical knowledge and experiential exercises to help participants apply trauma-informed practices in their personal and professional lives.

In this conversation, Sharon K. Ball discusses her book 'Reclaiming You', which explores the intersection of trauma recovery and the Enneagram. She emphasizes the importance of understanding trauma before applying the Enneagram, sharing her personal journey and how the Enneagram has transformed her both personally and professionally. The discussion highlights the role of storytelling in therapy and the significance of authenticity in overcoming personal challenges. Sound Bites "It made me a better therapist."
