B.I.G. Enneagram Retreat: WATER Edition
by Chelsea Witbrook, Milton Stewart & Ben Campbell
May 22-25, 2026
Dunrovin Retreat Center, in Minnesota
Using body based exercises, nature immersion, and mindfulness practices, we will explore the cultivation of Presence in the Head Center. Working with our Fixations, habits of attention, Fear, and Inner Critic messages is challenging work, so doing it together in community with experienced teachers is crucial. We will learn practical tools for deeper awareness, developing a neutral Inner Observer, and detaching from our unskillful habits of mind.
The WATER retreat will feature CANOEING on the beautiful St. Croix River!

“Deepening With the Enneagram”- A Cohort Community for Inner Work, Shadow Work, and Interior Freedom
Weekly on Tuesdays, Sept 15, 2026 - June 8, 2027

Inner Work takes courage, perseverance, discipline, consistency, willingness…and a sense of humor! This is why ongoing community support is so essential. Without regular practice and accountability, the ego slides back into the driver’s seat, because that’s our default mode. It is possible to be free from the persecutions of our personality, and this course has been developed for this exact reason: to move us up the Levels of Development so that we can find more freedom, joy and ease in our lives, and let go of stress and suffering. This liberates our LifeForce to become an agent for positive change in our families, communities and the world. And our world really needs us all to show up in new ways right now.
The Enneagram of Holy Ideas: An Immersion into Nondual States of Consciousness
Sept 8, 2026 - June 22, 2027
Tuesday evenings on Zoom
This course will explore the Holy Ideas, which are the ways our mind/consciousness experiences Reality when we are free from our mental fixations, stories, assumptions, and fears. The Holy Ideas are a direct experience of interior freedom in the Head Center, an inner Knowing that understands that All is One. The Holy Ideas bring us beyond our personality type and into an expanded state of Awareness. This Work brings us into the spiritual dimensions of the Enneagram and helps us evolve our souls.
This is a course for advanced practitioners that includes teaching, inner exercises, somatic work, readings, inquiry practices, and small groups.
