How Enneagram Types 7-9 Can Mitigate Stress [S07-017]

Each of us manage stress differently, but understanding our pressure points and automatic reactions allows us to consciously change the way we respond. When we understand the triggers of others, we can compassionately support them as well.   In Part 3 of our 3-part series, Anthony and I focus on the unique ways Enneagram 7s, 8s, and 9s experience and manage stress. We explore:    How Type 7s cope with the frustration of restrictions and the struggle to stay engaged when their freedom to choose feels limited. The journey of Type 8s in embracing vulnerability as a strength, learning that sharing emotions is not a sign of weakness but a brave act of courage. Ways Type 9s can rise above their natural inclination towards passivity by finding a voice for their needs and desires, ensuring self-care is as much a priority as caring for others.   We offer practical tips to mitigate self-defeating behaviors and remain emotionally balanced when life’s circumstances get tense.    Listen to the full episode here, and please, share it with anyone who might be grappling with stress or burnout—it might be just what they need.    You can also download our Ways to Mitigate Stress Based on Your Personality PDF for a quick-look at tips for each type.
