Systemic Constellation Workshops Pacific Northwest

 
 

A two-day workshop

Next dates, TBA 2024

Locations:

  • Portland, Oregon USA

  • Whidbey Institute, Whidbey Island, WA

A practice to deepen our sensing capacities leading to wiser and more aligned actions

Join us for a taster to systemic constellations and experiential workshop. This course is open for leaders, change-makers, coaches and practitioners working with the body. Systemic Constellations is a powerful tool for personal and societal transformation bringing clarity and ease to complex dynamics and challenges.

In this workshop, we explore what the body and our senses can teach us about our own personal and collective transformation.

In this course you will:

  • learn the basics of systemic constellation practice

  • experience and practice systemic constellations

  • meet peers to continue practicing

In the practice, we learn to more fully use our bodies as instruments of perception, tapping into our inherent capacities as human beings to pick up signals as information from the field. In this way, the practice offers a bridge between our capacity to sense and feel and our storytelling mind. 

This workshop is designed as a brief introduction and taster to systemic constellations placing more emphasis on experiential practice.

Interested? Reach out to Nancy Zamierowski.

What is Systemic Constellations?

System Constellations is a process of creating a model of a particular system in order to reveal and transform its hidden patterns. Developed by Bert Hellinger, a German psychotherapist, and strongly informed by his experience with the Zulu people of Southern Africa, this methodology originally focused on family systems. It was used to probe the deeper forces and patterns that influence an individual’s thoughts, behaviors and emotional experiences, many of which are influenced by forces acting through multiple generations.

The practice of Systemic Constellations allows us to visualize the patterns of interaction and interdependent relationships of a system. By making these dynamics visible, we widen our understanding and obtain a greater variety of choices in how we respond. By revealing what often goes unsaid or challenges that may lie hidden, systemic constellations can support one to gain more clarity on an issue, work on the root issues and create conditions for healing.
