What is Systemic Dynamics and Constellation Coaching?

How it works

Systemic Dynamics Coaching is a form of learning, …a learning that by-passes our conscious, institutionalized brain. It is not a form of therapy. It has nothing to do with Astrology. Instead it encourages us to rely on our other faculties, our intuition or unconscious mind, and our faith, for information and guidance.

This workshop is based on the work of Bert Hellinger, a Psychotherapist and former priest, whose philosophy is:.

Often hidden dynamics and loyalties form a climate, or a culture, in which we are born, grow, live, and work. Such hidden dynamics and loyalties can sometimes prevent us from feeling joy and peace and fulfilling our higher purpose. There is a vast inter-connectedness of people in organizations and their families. This connection works in such a way that may not always be visible. It acts like a silent and sometimes not so silent network which may prevent a person from achieving his/her purpose
It‘s just the way things are.

Systemic Coaching uses the phenomenological approach of constellations*, to depict the dynamics of the relationships between people, concepts, family or work structures, policies and practices in a very simple way.

*Constellations are “configurations: an arrangement of parts or elements; “the outcome depends on the configuration of influences at the time” i.e. a configuration of stars as seen from the earth wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn

· A person volunteers to have the group help them clarify a particular, serious situation in their lives that
needs resolution.

· People are chosen to represent the key people, concepts, or factors that are related to a clearly the
defined issue.

· The representatives are placed in the center of the room.

· Hidden dynamics and loyalties are brought to the surface for all to see.

· Then, under the guidance of the coach/ facilitator, new, healthy images of the issue start to take
shape.

· The new image provides a blueprint for future movement and growth in a healthy and enhancing way.

*All participants are required to sign statements insuring confidentiality.
