Systemic Constellation Workshop with Brigitta Dunki & Joan Ma

  • Do you want better relationships with family members, friends or at work?

  • Do you want to know wht prevents you from getting what you want in your career, relationship, life?

  • Do you have an illness / medical condition that just won't heal?

  • do you have issues at work, in your business or with your finances that you want more clarity about?

Then these workshop are for your!

Families have an unconscious mind that travels the generations and entangles those who follow in the fates of the ones before them.  This work can be used to deal with challenges that often have their true roots in our family, e.g. illness, depression or suicidal tendencies, relationship difficulties, poor fortune, addictions, grief and separation, adoption, related problems, etc.  The dynamics of this larger family system lie beyond our awareness, yet the effect they have on our lives is profound.

These workshops show you a different way of looking at and resolving long standing issues and understanding your own and the behaviour of others.  Systemic Constellations reveal the hidden systemic dynamics that operate in our lives.  Once the truth is revealed, order can be restored to our family system or organization and healing and a new order can occur.

Family constellations have been developed by the German psychotherapist Bert Hellinger through 25 years of healing work.  Come join us for one or more of these workshops.  We would love to have you there.
