About Helen Palmer
Helen Palmer is the co-founder and co-director of Enneagram Studies in the Narrative Tradition along with David Daniels, M.D. A teacher of psychology and intuition, Helen has been committed to bridging personal and spiritual realities for 30 years.
Helen is the author of five highly acclaimed books in the field of human consciousness. The Enneagram and The Enneagram in Love and Work are perennial international bestsellers, now in 21 languages, and her Enneagram books have sold more than half a million copies worldwide. She was featured in the PBS documentary, Breaking Out of the Box: Discovering the Enneagram, and has recently launched a new website, www.enneagram.com.
Helen has made many original contributions toward understanding how meditation and awareness training relate to the nine psychological types. She has developed and teaches an in-depth psychological-spiritual curriculum for type and spiritual freedom. She presents classes around the world that focus on key topics of psychological and spiritual integration. Some of the themes include type and false identity, projection, presence and self-forgetting, virtues of the heart, intuition and retrieving the Holy Ideas.
