Family Constellations Workshop
Hari Kirtana devi dasi
Family systems have great power and strong bonds, which when hidden can severely impact our emotions and health. Bert Hellinger, a leading edge German psychotherapist discovered & developed an experiential approach to healing individual and group entanglements, using Systemic Constellations.He has been using this approach since the early 1980's, and it is rapidly gaining recognition and acceptance all over the world. Family constellations have been used for several years by a number of vaisnava counselors in America and Europe, and is included as part of a unit of the degree course at the Bhaktivedanta College. The method sits very well within Vedic philosophy. This workshop runs from 6pm to 9pm on Friday 5 September and 11.30 am to 4pm on Saturday 6 September.
