Many people are familiar with the Enneagram, a description of personality types. Many are increasingly familiar with Essence, meaning qualities of being, a rapidly developing field in modern psychology. The 9 Dimensions of Soul is the first book to relate the two, understanding the personality types of the Enneagram in relation to the Essence.

Review
The Nine Dimensions of the Soul is written in a beautifully simple, insightful and heartful way and transmits complex material in a way that is easy to read and understand. Also, it is a welcome addition to the literature on the enneagram by integrating the 'Essence Work' of A. H. Almaas and Faisal Muqaddam with the traditional understanding of the nine aspects of the enneagram. Thomas O. Trobe, MD Psychiatrist and Founder and Director of Learning Love Seminars, Inc.

Getting to know yourself,
This review is from: The 9 Dimensions of the Soul: Essence and the Enneagram (Paperback)
In the past two decades many enlightenment books have been published. Some have fallen into the category of the trendy self-help variety. Nine Diminsions is about as far from those as can be imagined. It represents a great deal of care and thought on the part of its author. David Hey doesn't set forth easy answers to spiritual questions, free of any contribution on the reader's part. Here we find a path to self knowledge (and a way to know others as well) that can help us create and sustain meaningful relationships with those we love. The book is readable because it is obvious that Hey has spent considerable time thinking about his subject and his readers. He has written about a difficult subject with grace and courage.

Review from Ginger Lapid-Bogda,
This review is from: The 9 Dimensions of the Soul: Essence and the Enneagram (Paperback)
David Hey has written a simple, profound, and important book for helping us understand the Enneagram. With clarity and precision, he has taken this often hard-to-understand aspect of the Enneagram -- the Essence in each of us and how this relates to our Enneagram type and our search for meaning -- and made it available in a form that reads like poetry. As an Enneagram author myself (Bringing Out the Best in Yourself at Work" and "What Type of Leader Are You?"),I understand the challenges involved in taking this sometimes compex material and putting it into a form that others can readily understand and use. David has risen to this challenge.

New Dimensions of the Soul,
By
This review is from: The 9 Dimensions of the Soul: Essence and the Enneagram (Paperback)
The Enneagram and the teachings of Gurdjieff I have found to be too arcane for the casual reader. Hey's book The 9 Dimensions of the Soul provides an entertaining and informative analysis of some of this difficult material. As you read this book it is impossible not to begin to see how the enneagram applies to our own actions and everyone we deal with in our lives. This book also gives insight on why we behave the way we do. What I also found both useful and fascinating is how these profiles can be applied to the collective and how we work together. I would recommend this book to anyone who has seen a pattern in their own behavior.
