The
Constellation Approach originates from the methodology of systemic therapy,
which looks at life as a whole versus isolated incidents of wounding or pain. By
viewing family situations with a wider lens, we gain insights
into the deeper reasons that cause things to occur such as why individuals are
denied a place or not spoken of and why behavioral patterns appear to repeat,
often unconsciously, from one generation to the next.
This larger whole is called the Family Soul by Hellinger and the Family
Energy Field by us. It serves as the basis for exploring and understanding
our relationships as well as eventually constructing solutions to unresolved
issues. The Family Soul includes both the living and the dead and has a deep
effect on the present generation.
The Constellation Approach allows a deep soul-level healing to take place by
leading us past societal ideas of morality to a holographic understanding of
why events happen in the context of love and loyalty to the family, It is a
way to work experientially and energetically in a gentle, safe and
supportive environment.
This method looks at the patterns within the Family Energy Field. Bert
Hellinger calls these patterns "orders of love” -- meaning where love needs
to open and move so that it can flow freely. A few of these orders are that
there is a natural and important sequencing of members that comprise a
family, that everyone is included in the family -- no matter what happened
-- and that no one can take on another’s destiny.
