The greater soul moves in only one direction and that is to bring into union that which has been made separate

There are often so many secrets in families and unresolved issues in a family:​
-
a child died young, or was a miscarriage or aborted and not fully grieved,
-
a parent died early leaving young children behind
-
a child was adopted
-
someone went missing in a family and was not spoken about again,
-
a family migrated leaving family and friends behind and never really got over it
-
maybe someone committed a crime and never paid for it (did the time),
-
a parent was excluded didn't have access to children
-
there was war and many didn't survive
-
a parent couldn't marry/be with their first love as they were not the same religion or class,
These events can cause an energy block in a family system. Unconsciously this pattern can play out in later generations, even if we know no history of the first event.
A child comes along generations later and feels the same dynamic from generations past but has not conscious understanding of their feelings. Often seeking help for their feelings as they feel so real for them, but what if they were not your feelings, your story, your struggles and you were carrying them for the bigger family system. .
Using a systemic lens we can look at the bigger family system and put things back in order.
If you are wondering why do I feel
-
sad,
-
depressed,
-
lonely
-
empty
-
not able to connect
-
ignored
-
wronged
-
the truth is never really spoken
​
and it does not make sense to you, maybe you are feeling the feelings of the unresolved stories of past generations. These events can also show up as
-
affairs
-
early deaths
-
Illness
-
not living our purpose
-
abuse
-
repeating relationship pattern
-
financial problems
-
feelings that do not make sense
-
grief
-
and so much more...

It is increasingly clear from research in neuro-biology, epigenetics, somatic experiencing and psychotherapy that behavioral patterns are often carried from one generation to the next.
Family & Systemic Constellations (originating from the German word 'Aufstellung') is a powerful process for tapping into the unconscious, hidden dynamics (sometimes referred to as the ‘knowing field’) that may be playout out in your life and holding you back from ‘living the life you deserve’.
The Journey Towards Health Begins on the Path of Self Love. Begin Your Journey Today.
How Can a Constellation Help?
Patterns can often become so embedded in our behaviours and attitudes that they seem to be ‘normal’, even when they are destructive. They may be so intimately integrated into our view of who we are that we are unable to see an alternative way of living, loving and relating, and are unable to break out of this cycle of behaviour that we no longer want.
Constellations helps you look at
-
how this pattern of behaviour is playing out in your life,
-
what it may be doing for your bigger family system.
-
What is out of order,
-
what is needed
-
and what is not needed.
The facilitator then helps bring the natural order back to your system through the constellations process.
Helping you to
-
release the blame,
-
hurt,
-
judgement
-
and bring back the natural love
-
connection in your relationships.
Constellations helps you to take back your place in your family system, so you can live your life fully and be all that you are truly capable of being.

​
Warning:
The constellations work is deep, it can involve a lot of emotions, it can go very deep and not everyone is ready for that right now.
While everyone can benefit from the power of this work some people need other sessions prior and after a constellation to support the big shifts of the constellation.
​
I work on and with all those layers, the conscious and unconscious. From the early imprinting often preverbal to the echoes and repetitions that have and may still be continuing today.
​
I work on multiple levels and with different modalities to fully integrate the mind, body and soul. For a tailored package to suit where you are at right now look at our transformation packages.
​
This work is not like anything else you have experienced before. It goes deep and fast and you MUST be ready to really commit to your own process.
​
Anything is possible if you are ready to say YES to you....
​
You are worth it, you are worth spending the time, money and energy on you, so you can be the best version of yourself. FREE YOURSELF from the past and start living the life you know you deserve.

"I have had the very good fortune of attending a number of 'family constellation' workshops facilitated by Edwina and have been very impressed by her skill, experience and compassion. Edwina consistently demonstrates her expertise as she guides the participants through this profound healing method to reach insight and resolution regarding a variety of life issues.
As a medical doctor I am aware of the potent effect of unresolved ancestral, family and individual issues on one's health and wellbeing and I would highly recommend 'Family Constellation' sessions, under the guidance of Edwina, to help reach and resolve those deeper influences that underly many of our life and wellbeing challenges".

I attended a Family Constellations Workshop with Edwina a few weeks back and it was an amazing experience! Edwina is a fantastic group facilitator, it is clear she was born to do this work! She was confident in guiding the group, and yet gentle and caring with each individual. As a counsellor myself I have never come across a therapy or method like this that has such immediate and powerful results. I personally saw dramatic shifts in my relationships with my family after attending the workshop and to say they have improved is an understatement! I believe Family Constellation work is something every single person should try, it is truly transformative.
