Véritable outil d''évolution personnelle, tant psychologique que spirituel, l''ennéagramme s''adresse à tous ceux qui s''intéressent à la découverte de soi et des autres. Il nous invite à découvrir les potentialités latentes qui résident en nous afin de les déployer de manière complète et harmonieuse. Ce système est constitué de 9 types fondamentaux qui sont basés sur nos motivations inconscientes, nos pensées, nos émotions. D''une utilisation simple et rapide, il nous amène à identifier le type auquel notre comportement se réfère et à prendre conscience que nos fonctionnements sont souvent régis par des automatismes et des habitudes. Pour dépasser nos limites et ouvrir de nouveaux horizons, l''ennéagramme nous indique grâce à des exemples et des exercices, un moyen d''accomplissement personnalisé d''une grande finesse. Cette connaissance réelle de la personnalité peut être projetée à notre entourage et ainsi, à la lumière d''un regard neuf, nous pouvons enrichir notre vie d''une communication plus vraie avec nos proches, nos amis, dans notre famille, notre travail. L''ennéagramme est l''une des rares méthodes qui, très efficace, rassemble en un système cohérent une profonde sagesse psychologique. Le livre d''Helen Palmer constitue une merveilleuse méthode de connaissance, simple, puissante et dynamique. Aujourd''hui largement répandue aux États-Unis, cette technique fut longtemps maintenue secrète. Jadis transmise uniquement de bouche à oreille dans la tradition soufi, ses origines remontent à la source de la Tradition.

Storybook; original in English, published by Collins & Harvill.

A classic, comic easy reader about getting a pet! In this beloved Beginner Book written by Mrs. Dr. Seuss (aka Helen Palmer), a young boy hilariously learns the consequences of not following instructions when he feeds too much to his goldfish—causing it to grow as big as a whale! With delightfully retro illustrations by P.D. Eastman (Go, Dog. Go!), the message of the book—that getting a pet is a big responsibility—is as true today as it was when the book was published in 1961. Perfect for beginning readers and read-alouds—and anyone getting a pet, especially a fish—it''s ideal for birthdays, holidays, and happy occasions of all kinds! Launched in 1957 with The Cat in the Hat and written specifically for emergent readers, Beginner Books combine an exacting blend of simple words and fun pictures that encourage children to read—all by themselves. "Comic pictures show how the fish rapidly outgrows its bowl, a vase, a cook pot, a bathtub."--The New York Times.
