Family Constellations were developed by German philosopher Bert Hellinger and are now spreading across the world as an innovative and radical approach to inner healing. Describing the work of Family Constellations is not an easy process. It requires a paradigm shift in our thinking from the idea of ‘cause and effect’ to the ‘interconnectedness of everything’. We can see from constellation work that our inner worlds and those of our families, both past and present are all interwoven like a huge tapestry.

The process in a constellation workshop (which involves ‘setting up’ people as representatives for present and past family members, different parts of ourselves, abstract concepts like truth, war and secrets) reveals where this interweaving has become entangled and thereby may be blocking the easy flow of love and of our life force energy. This blockage manifests itself in many different kinds of ways through illness, addictions, infertility, difficulties with intimacy and many other afflictions. When the life force energy of love is released, we can ‘come home’ to ourselves, to our families and to a feeling of inner acceptance and peace.

This work can also be carried out in individual sessions.
