Mountains within : Remembering Through Family Constellations

 

In this sacred workshop, we enter the deep remembering of who we are through the lens of Family Constellations. We turn toward our ancestral lands, mountains, and rivers—living presences that shaped the ones who came before us, and who continue to echo within our own bodies and stories.

As we meet these elemental ancestors, we are met by the strength, wisdom, and belonging that flow through our lineage. The land remembers us. The rivers speak our names. The mountains offer their stillness and strength.

We also honour the landscapes we now call home—the inner mountains and rivers that form our emotional, spiritual, and energetic terrain. In weaving these inner and outer geographies together, we walk the path of reconnection, reverence, and rootedness.

This is an invitation to remember… to feel… to return.

Objective: To connect with the mountains and rivers of our ancestors.


 

Montañas en nuestro interior: Recordando a través de Constelaciones Familiares

En este taller sagrado, nos adentramos en la profunda memoria de quiénes somos a través de las Constelaciones Familiares. Nos dirigimos hacia nuestras tierras, montañas y ríos ancestrales: presencias vivas que moldearon a quienes nos precedieron y que siguen resonando en nuestros cuerpos e historias.

Al encontrarnos con estos ancestros elementales, nos encontramos con la fuerza, la sabiduría y la pertenencia que fluyen a través de nuestro linaje. La tierra nos recuerda. Los ríos pronuncian nuestros nombres. Las montañas ofrecen su quietud y fuerza.

También honramos los paisajes que ahora llamamos hogar: las montañas y los ríos interiores que conforman nuestro territorio emocional, espiritual y energético. Al entrelazar estas geografías internas y externas, recorremos el camino de la reconexión, la reverencia y el arraigo.

Esta es una invitación a recordar… a sentir… a retornar.

Objetivo: Conectar con las montañas y ríos de nuestros ancestros.

Reclamation of Remembering: Restoration of Stories, Connection, and Belonging within our Collective Cultures.

 

Stories within constellation help us remember how to remember and then they help us create a map of what that remembering can become and where it comes from.
What happens to descendants that speak with a voice that doesn’t hold the words, stories, myths, and culture of their ancestors? When the very language, beliefs, traditions of the culture of the previous generations have been colonised and rendered voiceless?
Generations upon generations of people have been denied their existence through the silencing of story, myth, folklore and culture.
Decolonisation and disentanglement of this loss involves returning to the energetic archives of our lineages, the memories held in the land and waters, sometimes beyond language, to reclaim our nature, our knowing, our humanity and our stories.
Over the last decade we have, in many ways, experienced an enforced removal of ‘what was’ in terms of our collective ‘normal’ and we are presently living in the liminality of the space that exists in the before/after of multiple collective trauma points.
Telling our stories, sharing and witnessing the stories of others, listening to older stories from ‘before’ is a powerful way of beginning to heal that and separating put the threads, not just for ourselves but for those that will follow in our footsteps.

Format: Presentation of theory of collective constellation and entangled memory through myth & story. Constellation with stories held in the land and waters in small groups.

Chris Wood is a passionate social justice activist, astronomer who continues to push the boundaries of physics and spirituality for healing individual and collective trauma for the highest good of all beings, past, present and future. In recent years her focus has been exploring the use of sacred crystal bowls as a tool for healing.

Chris will be playing her crystal singing bowls during the constellation. Together with Nicola they have found the addition of the bowls to the moving constellation field creates a movement beyond language, that is transformational for remembering and shifting the deep entanglements that there are often no words for.

Is deep unlearning of adverse memories possible in constellations?

 

Deep unlearning of adverse memories in systemic constellations: The presenter will give a short insight on the evidence-based approach of Bruce Ecker (“Unlocking the emotional brain”) and translate the frame conditions to a use-case/constellation demo. The workshop is meant to determine and discuss the parts of our systemic work that disconnect memory from the emotional state that comes along. The use-case will be a constellation of non-human ancestors as part of the memory of our body´s cells.

Responding to Individual Trauma within Constellation Work

 

In this workshop I would like to share my findings and learning about trauma emergence in the seeker, and ways in which a constellation practitioner can be trauma-responsive. As a certified Family Constellation Helper, certified
Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner (work of Dr Gabor Mate) and trained in Trauma Research Studies (by Dr Kolk’s work), I have noticed that with trauma awareness increasing, it is more easily felt and activated in the individual soul energy field.

When trauma becomes open and activate in the seeker, there is disruption in the knowing field in a way that needs to be given immediate pause and attention. The personal conscience takes over in a way that comes in the way of insight and resolution. When the seeker is pushed further without acknowledgement, it can re-trigger the original traumatic experience for the seeker, open trauma for everyone else, and can result even, in mental emotional harm. When trauma is detected, given space, and included in the field through staying with the present, the client co-regulated with, there is an immediate settling felt by all. I want to share systemic perspective and ways in which the
constellation practitioner can be more mindful of trauma, my own findings, and working with the emergence of trauma within constellation work.

Systemic Heart Stones, revealed through the lens of the High Art of Helping.

 

Through the teachings in Hellinger Sciencia and the underpinning wisdom of constellations, we meet loyalties, blind love, entanglements and the scars of our ancestral and early woundings.

Hellinger’s High Art of Helping is the scaffolding that supports and guides our work in Constellations. The High Art of Helping in Systemic constellations speaks into a philosophy and way of life and the underpinning wisdom of constellation are beautifully woven into its tapestry. It is here that our tender and wounded hearts have experiences of the pure alchemy of meeting and agreeing to what is. Soul expands into a deeper knowing of Movements of Greater Love, Courage and Adulting (growing up) .

As I was going through the conference website, I felt a rising excitement in me as I read about the Mayan cosmic turtle and the systemic hearthstones. I began to reflect on the systemic hearthstones through the lens of the High Art of Helping. I invite you to reflect with me, making space for whatever emerges and deepening into what reveals itself.
In all cultures, hearthstones are central in every home to develop and flourish. Hearthstones support and guide us in our connectedness and love.

Structure and Process: In the session, after a brief introduction, I will introduce the highlights of the Art of Helping. You will then gently move into an exercise in which systemic hearthstones reveals itself to you in an approach, that is phenomenological and unfolding in the field. Further, through an exercise, there is opportunity to anchor the essence of the hearthstones in a somatic way. Meditations and visualizations are woven into the session.

Quotes:

“Systemic Constellations take us beyond the boundaries of love… as we are taken into the service of life.”

My Philosophy

“My work has been deeply influenced, not only by my life and work experiences, but also by my years as a farmer practicing sustainable organic farming. Exploring the analogy, sustainable farming is about finding a balance and about working with both what is healthy and unhealthy, with growth promoters and growth retardants. The fruit of this way of living is that of flowing with natural energies and of being in harmony. I believe that balance and centeredness within our being can only be achieved by bringing harmony to the indivisible body, mind and soul. Holistic wellness and healing takes place when we bring back the balance, transcending our entanglements and moving beyond blame to an agreement with life as it is.”
