The Family Constellation involves everyone in the group. All participants benefit regardless of the amount paid. Everyone feels the effect of a Family Constellation whether as an observer, a listener, a representative, the individual posing the issue, a newcomer, or an experienced and knowledgeable person.

About the Event: This is a in-person group immersion where Family Constellations and an introduction to meditation take place. In a Family Constellation, the focus is not on an individual; everyone in the group benefits from being mindful of the present moment. All participants can bring a personal issue, act as a representative in someone's constellation, and/or simply observe attentively. Family Constellation is a practical philosophy that brings us new awareness and involves phenomenology.

Meditation is a simple, ancient practice that connects us with the present moment, which is our only possibility of living. We'll pause together through an awareness exercise, an ancient introductory meditation practice.

All participants can benefit from this experience, regardless of age, nationality, gender, belief, religion, or profession.

About the group's attitude:

Each participant is guided by some essential principles for everyone to practice:

• Embrace all without judgement
• Show respect
• Keep confidential what is shared
• Create a calm and peaceful environment

What is a Family Constellation Workshop?

A Family Constellation Workshop is an opportunity to participate in practical and face-to-face group experiences.

Our "workshops" or seminars are events where Family Constellations takes place. Every participant "constellates" in a workshop, either by bringing an individual question to the group, by participating in group dynamics, by being a representative in the experiences, or simply by observing - everyone benefits as long they are fully present.

Depending on the circumstances, but not necessarily, Patricia Belda, the facilitator, may elaborate on some of the theories of what is a Family Constellation. Such theories are introduced occasionally to help broaden individual awareness about life and support the personal growth of participants.

What is Family Constellation?

In brief, it is a holistic path for healing and personal growth. Family Constellation is a new way to access knowledge through a philosophical, practical approach to life that involves phenomenology. It can mistakenly be confused with religion, psychotherapy, esotericism, and other methods or techniques, however, it is a path, an introduction, and transition to a new level of consciousness. Originally called "Familienstellen", today it is a new science in constant development.

Also called Systemic Constellation, Family Constellation was discovered and founded by the ex-Catholic missionary, educator, theologian, psychotherapist, and philosopher Bert Hellinger. He was born in 1925 in Germany and died on September 19, 2019.

Bert Hellinger developed Family Constellation from:

• empirical observations;
• constant meditation;
• practical public actions, from which thousands of people were able to experience the effects of their understandings both on themselves and on their personal and collective relationships.​

The work has evolved since 1980 and in the early 90s, the Family Constellation started to be universally recognized. Since then, it has expanded to the areas of Health, Education, Justice, and Organizations.

What are 'Orders of Love"?

The work is based on three principles of life, which Hellinger called Orders of Love. They are:

• Belonging: the right for everyone to belong to a system
• Hierarchy: order of arrival into a system
• Balance: between giving and taking among the members of this system​

The Orders of Love function as law and are as ancient and comparable to the Law of Gravity. These laws act on us, regardless of volition, opinion, belief, or knowledge. When these orders are violated by someone in the family, compensations arise and usually manifest themselves on members of later generations. These compensations arise in the form of “incurable” illnesses, permanent pain, fatalities, failures in life, serious conflicts in relationships, among many others. These diseases manifest themselves to:

• include members who have been excluded
• balance exchanges among family members
• restore the flow of interrupted love
• perpetuate the group

In a Family Constellation, people who know nothing about a client are chosen to represent family members. While in this field, they feel exactly like the person they represent, whether they are alive or dead.

Thanks to Family Constellations the individual can become aware of:

• where the essential entanglement is
• how the Orders of Love can be respected
• the possibility of restoring the love and order that nourishes your system
• the steps that may be taken, which will lead to a solution to the issue that imprisoned, and that one was not previously aware of​.

Cancellation Policy
