FAMILY CONSTELLATION
SESSIONS AND WORKSHOPS
The Systemic Family Constellation work of Bert Hellinger is an effective and powerful method to recognize family entanglements in the family of origin as well as in the present family.
In this therapeutic approach we consider the individual not as a separate unit, but as part of a greater whole, a family system. His individual behaviour, his feelings and attitudes have to be understood in the context of this larger group.
This method is very powerful and allows us to look at how events that occurred in past generations impact our life experience in the present.
Hidden family dynamics, often spanning two or three generations, may create imbalance or disharmony in the family "field" and these disturbances may lead to:
Illness
Depression
Anxiety
Relationship difficulties
Recurrent fears
Addictions
Suicides
Accidents
Career problems in the present.
How it works:
When the constellation is set up authentically, through listening deeply within and following movements that arise from this listening, the disturbances in the family "field" are revealed that contain the movement towards healing of the family soul.
A client chooses participants from the group to represent certain family members living or dead. These representatives then experience the hidden dynamics within the family system. Working with the representatives, the facilitator attempts to restore honor, respect, dignity and love between all members of the family, especially with those who've been excluded or forgotten. As peace and reconciliation is achieved, the genuine love and strength in a family can then begin to flow in a healthy way. Each person present at a constellation, whether participant or observer, can experience the profound effects of this work..
Participating is often as valuable as creating one's personal constellation.
Constellation Work allows us to reestablish our vital strength, tranquility and dignity.
