| Family /Systemic Constellation is a phenomenological process that allows us to reconnect with our ancestors. Through difficult circumstances such as war, death and/or cultural atrocities, the connection to our lineage is often interrupted. To regain familial strength and support, Family Constellations provide a strong restorative process, healing the interrupted reaching out movements within family systems and nations. The process works with symptoms such as illness, addictions and strong emotions. Practitioners are drawn to this work as it provides a strengthening healing capacity on a deep soul level that works from deep respect and humility to acknowledge what is trying to be seen and resolved in families and other systems. It is currently used as a reconciliation process throughout the world with individuals, schools, communities, and organizations. This course is designed for people who are already working within the therapeutic field, eg. psychotherapists, counsellors, teachers, social workers. It provides the participant with both, hands on experience as well as a theoretical background of systemic constellation work. It will give participants basic skills of systemic constellation which will enable them to include these into their field work. Course Content 1.
