How do we go between healthy and unhealthy? I was reading about enneagrams tonight and was looking at healthy and unhealthy traits. I definitely fell under the Level 5 throughout my teens and by early twenties hit Level 4 and am currently at Level 3. This is just on my own observation.



Is it always possible that individuals will continually change levels whether its towards healthy and unhealthy? Can we consciously make changes in ourselves to get to "Level 1" or is this just by experience? I would love to be able to truthfully say I'm a Level 1 or 2 healthy.. those look really appealing to me but I wouldn't lie and say I was there if I wasn't.

Releasing and affirming those things sincerely could be one way to reach the "healthiness". Of course saying it isn't enough, it has to be "written" in your subconscious and to be dealt with.

I am bookmarking that site, thank you.

I was looking at this link;
9 - Enneagram Type Nine: The Peacemaker

and reading about the levels. I know that I went to lv5 to lv3 from experiences and not doing it on a conscious level.. it just happened.

I'm pretty new to enneagram so I have all these noobish questions.. can i consciously change it?

I would say that you can consciously act to improve your healthiness but you can't change your level simply by wanting it, efforts must be made in that direction.
