WHAT IS 'SYSTEMIC FAMILY CONSTELLATIONS'?
Systemic Family Constellations provide a powerful way to explore personal and family issues. It focuses on the felt, and sometimes invisible, wounds of trans-generational trauma that can impact individuals and whole family systems.
Through a process of radical inclusion, constellations considers everyone and everything that is part of our interconnected systems, revealing missing elements, entangled patterns and hidden imbalances. Where you previously felt stuck, constellations can help you see things in new ways, release what doesn't belong to you, and open up new possibilities for your future.
Systemic Family Constellations is a solution-focused approach developed by the psychotherapist, Bert Hellinger and his colleagues, based on his engagement with the traditional wisdom of the Zulu communities in Southern Africa, where he spent 16 years. It helps us see the bigger picture and find resources for healing. The constellations approach is based on principles known as the 'Orders of Love'; Place, Time & Space, Belonging and Exchange. When these principles are transgressed, imbalances occur, leading to problems which, if unresolved, are passed down through generations.
The constellations process involves the body, heart, mind, and soul, working with issues in our current life and our ancestral heritage. It shows you what's needs to be seen, honoured, and given its place to create balance in your life and your family system. It helps you identify internal and external resources to facilitate a resolution and movement towards wholeness. In doing so, you are invited to step more fully into the wider tapestry of life, and flourish'.
WHAT HAPPENS IN A WORKSHOP?
We provide a welcoming, safe, and supportive space where everyone is included in the growing constellations community. The day will start with a short guided meditation to help everyone settle in. If you feel ready to work on a inter-personal issue, you can put your name in a hat and an 'isue holders' will be chosen randomly. We will look at 3 to 4 issues during the day.
The constellation process starts with a conversation where the issue holder describes to the facilitator the issue they are bringing to work on. Group members are then selected to represent elements of the issue holder's family system. These elements can be specific individuals, groups, places or abstract concepts.
'Representatives' stand within the circle in relation to one another and together this creates the constellation, which is like a 'living map' of the issue holder's family system. This creates an energy field, known as 'the knowing field', where information is gathered through the embodied experience of the representatives. There is no acting out of a 'story'. Instead, the representatives are asked to simply report anything they experience, such as feelings or physical sensations. The facilitator gathers information from the constellation, which illuminates the current stuckness and helps to explore possible movements towards a resolution of the issue.
