Family
Constellations is a therapeutic approach through which we can explore
the deeper, unconscious dynamics in family systems. As we search for
the deeper movements of the soul, we often discover how loyal children
are to their families and how much their need to belong influences
their actions. Unfortunately these loyalties don’t necessarily serve us
later in life, and we usually are unaware that we continue to attempt
to balance unresolved energies in our families of origin.
In
family constellations we look to understand the impact of unresolved
family issues, or secrets, and often become more aware of influences
that our ancestors’ fates may still have in our life. Once these
connections are identified a healing process can unfold in which we
look for the love that is inherent in most families but which is often
obscured by pain, fear and anger.
When participants discover
their rightful, dignified place in their family they relax and
disengage from painful old patterns. This offers the opportunity to
move forward in new ways and leave past issues behind.
