Your name your ancestry your patterns - workshop
Exploration, expression and insight via a whole day of discussion, painting and constellation circles. No experience necessary. Just arrive, with your lunch, your water bottle a sun hat and warm layer, and of course, your name. Your given name is a portal into your family history, dynamics, and possibly, secrets. We take it as the starting point for a day of exploration, expression and insight after establishing a container for our shared vulnerability.

Let's give a glittering new dress to the Cinderella of health care
Let’s talk about it, normalise it, de-mystify it, try to understand it, accept its pervasiveness, develop compassion toward our friends, family members and acquaintances who encounter it. Lets recognise it as a systemic issue and not an individual issue. Let’s fully accept that ‘mental illness’ is as blameless as cancer or a broken arm, or toothache.

Joyous rage militant kindness medicine hat
The much flaunted ‘it is what it is’ or ‘the world is like that’ hit me as spiritual bypasses. Being urged to cheer up when you’re in deep grief.

In Person Constellation: same day, new time Sunday 14 September 1-5pm
These are pieces of information about unfinished business that I need to work with to fully release subtle trauma my body is still holding onto decades later. I know, without the slightest doubt that going into constellation with another facilitator will enable that to happen. Either something works or it doesn't. My experience is that constellations work, every time. The field does not lie, ever.

Wishes for Aladdin's genie. What would you wish for? And what is happiness?
Systemic constellations provide a pragmatic/phenomenological way of working with the generationally collected and currently collective traumas we carry, by recognising what is, opening up our natural resilience which is a resource we take for granted, or perhaps we don’t even acknowledge it. We have it, though, otherwise we would not have made it to this moment, in whatever shape we are in.
