Family Constellation Workshop, Bristol

  • Inye Centre 51 Broad st Bristol, England, BS1 2EP United Kingdom (map)

"It's a fascinating process and Katie held the space with warmth, clarity, intuition and care. I found it intriguing how we can each open to an emotional intelligence that comes from somewhere beyond our own egos and learned ideas, and in sharing aloud what we receive, be part of creating healing and change for the person who had brought the issues, and perhaps for us all. And Katie makes it feel simple and easeful, yet profound. One notable thing to me was how the issue holders looked quite transformed - lighter, happier, ten years younger - as a result of working through the process" Emma Burleigh

Are there areas of you life where you are really not thriving ?

Systemic Constellation Work, or Family Constellations, pioneered by psychotherapist and philosopher Bert Hellinger is a methodology used to identify and resolve difficult life issues – in our family, work, business, health or creativity. The constellation approach takes the ‘widest possible view’ offering new perspectives on life issues which can include past generations & trans-generational traumas.

Constellations can be used very practically for decision-making or specific challenges, or we can explore the deeper dynamics within relations with our families and ancestors. Like in nature, our focus is on finding where the natural order is not working and re-establishing harmony and flow within the Constellation. Any change within the Constellation affects the Constellation as a whole, and the work continues to have a ripple effect in the days and weeks following the session.

What to expect:

The evening will start with an Opening circle, short Meditation & Individual check in. Followed by a group exercise & some teaching around the method of the work . All important parts of building safety, trust & confidentiality within the group

If you wish to bring a "personal issue " to be constellated- there will be One Guaranteed Issue Holder Place & One randomly selected place . For the random selection you will write your name on a piece of paper & place it in a bowl & a name will be drawn at the beginning the evening

You do not need to bring an issue to the workshop, you can choose to lend yourself as a Representative to anothers constellation. As Representative you will be asked to represent a person such as a family member or a essence or archetype, such as Love or Nature. I will guide you through this process of allowing your body to lead & reporting back to me ehat you are experincing in this role. Many people have reported that their biggest life shifts have occurred while representing ....

If you are unfamiliar with the approach there is a Netflix drama where the characters use constellations to look at their life issues:
