Family Constellations is an alternative modality developed by Bert Hellinger in the 1990s. It brings together a group of participants, seated in a circle, who lend their presence and awareness so that energetic movements can unfold.

Hellinger discovered that hidden dynamics often shape people’s lives far more than they realize. By bringing these dynamics into the light, a new path toward resolution and healing becomes possible. Over the years, this approach has evolved—from “The Movement of the Soul” to “The Movement of the Spirit Mind” and, most recently, to “The Spiritual Constellation.”

These shifts become possible only when we set aside judgments of good and bad, right and wrong—judgments of ourselves, of our families, and even our fear of how others might perceive us.

Once that happens, the morphic field opens the way for a powerful healing energy to emerge, one that supports love and life. Love is then free to flow, guiding us toward a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.

At its core, Family Constellations works with the subconscious energetic bonds that connect generations and family members. When the hidden patterns or unresolved issues within these bonds are revealed, a new awareness and healing ripple through the entire family system. This can bring clarity and resolution to questions of health, relationships, or work, opening the door to healing our deepest wounds.

When it isn’t possible to gather a group—whether in person or online—the facilitator can use lego figures or other objects as stand-ins for the people involved.
