FAMILY CONSTELLATIONS
Uncovering
what was…what is…what can be
Do you feel stuck in old habits and patterns?
Do you feel no matter how much you’ve worked on an issue, little seems to change?
Are you having difficulties with your relationships, with money, with work, with your health?
Would you like your love for your family to flow more freely?
Did you know that past experiences within our family affect
how we experience our present life?
The Family Constellation approach begins with the premise that our well-being is tied to the well-being of our family system. This includes the living as well as the generations that came before. Family secrets, exclusion of family members, war, adoption, abortion, divorce, and premature death are just some of the events that can have an effect on our lives today. Any painful event touches every single family member and continues to reverberate down to later generations. We can become affected by the difficult and often unresolved issues of past generations and these unresolved issues may contribute to our current problems with relationships, work, decision making, anxiety, depression, addiction, and even physical illness without us even realizing.
The purpose of family constellation work is to release us from these “entanglements” by revealing hidden dynamics at work within our family. In doing this we can begin to reestablish and strengthen our healthy bonds and allow our love to flow more freely.
About Bert Hellinger
This work was developed by Bert Hellinger who incorporated years of therapeutic training and experience into The Family Constellation Approach. He teaches that unresolved events from previous generations can keep us stuck in old patterns and beliefs. By revealing the hidden dynamics at work, one can begin to look back with love and then forward with a new perspective.
“I felt trapped. I could not let go of the stress and anxiety I felt every time I was with my sister-in-law. Family Constellation work allowed me to see and feel my family dynamics from a new perspective. I am now able to listen calmly and with empathy and I actually enjoy my sister-in-law’s company.” JK
