“A ship is safe in harbour –
but that’s not what ships are for” – John A. Shedd
Oneness. One organism. One field.
A spiritual field that embraces the richness and diversity of existence in one breath. That holds the whole of life with the same love and the same presence. A full permission to life to be and move as life. Nothing is excluded, no distinction between good and bad, between right and wrong. Everything participates.
The whole of existence is contained within this field, from the spark of fire into the flow of water, from the grounding of earth, into the lightness of air. We? Just floating particles, held within the same cosmic skin.
One field of pure consciousness, or how Bert Hellinger calls it, the Spiritual Conscience. A conscience in service to a love which agrees to everything just as it is. A love in deep communication with the healing forces of life. A love that guides us into wholeness and truth.
When we are moved from this level of conscience, nothing seems hard and cruel, nothing is unfair. Love flows free of judgement and restrictions, giving permission to what we meet in our journey to be seen for what it is and to take its place within the skin of the cosmos.
We live in a world that experiences life through polarity. Something has permission to belong, while something else is excluded. But life wants to bring back together what has been separated. Healing always occurs when we include what has been excluded: anger, sadness, ideas, taboos, parts of our body, members of our tribes, dreams, strengths and vulnerabilities.
Life is relational. We are part of a field. Would it be our physical body, our family, our professional one……Exclusion is an act of denial to such a wholeness. As we do not consent to some parts of us to belong, we say no to our strength and to the possibility to give expression to our deepest longing to “become”. Our longings are actually what we are entrust to retrieve and weave into the tapestry of life.
They are our contribution to the cauldron of existence. The call of our ancestors that are asking for inclusion. It is the purest loyalty we can offer to who came before us. Daring to live what was unlived, to see what was unseen, to love what was unloved.
Hidden systemic bonds, unfelt family loyalties, and intergenerational entanglements are the scream of the excluded to be welcomed home. Do you know that feeling of being hold back? That feeling that whatever you do, your cannot proceed on, make your steps forward? Falling again and again into the same repetitive “movement”?
Healing is possible when we accept our belonging to the “whole”. When we allow ourselves to sense and feel, without wanting to exclude anything. Suffering and exclusion are acknowledged and everything and everybody is embraced from the same cosmic skin. We begin to feel at home within our body, a sense of safety might spark in our organism. Free from the entanglements of the past, we take our place within the movement of life.
Loves flows again, walking our path forward together with us.
* The Somatic Approach
What is intimacy? How can we find it, if we don’t allow ourselves to become “family” with our body? When we cannot even find our feet, how can we find the ground we stand on? When we don’t know, how our breaths moves. When we are not aware of the rising and falling of our belly, the tightening and softening of our tissues, the stream and flow of our blood. How can we know what pleasure is? What intimacy is? How can we then choose for nurturing and love? When we experience not belonging to our own physical body, how can we take our place in a larger system? How can we feel safe in the world, when we are not at home in our body?
Here is where we perceive and experience life. Sensations are in the body, feelings are in the body, expression is in the body, manifestation is in the body, determination is in the body.
This training wants to call us back home into all the forgotten parts of ourselves that are left unseen and uninhabited. It wants to walk home all the parts of our soul that are lost out there, entangled to what has been excluded.
Some parts of our body and its metaphorical truth as judged as not good enough and are left forgotten and isolated. Left empty, they become the host of the unseen. In this way, we lose our place within our skin and the strength that resides in it.
How do we turn our attention to these forgotten parts? By learning the ancient language of the body, we are able to hear and move with its messages (the body speaks to us through sensations, feelings and movement), reawakening our felt sense, and becoming master navigators of our inner as well as our outer reality with confidence. Freeing ourselves from false loyalties and all that occupies our lands.
Let’s stop looking at ourselves as a disconnected, isolated entity of some kind. We belong to our body. We belong to Mother Earth. We belong to life.
* The Shamanistic Approach
In shamanism, where everything is the voice of “spirit”, we can journey between worlds, in order to retrieve parts of our soul that have left us. Parts that, feeling unloved and unseen, have abandoned our completeness after experiencing unsafety, unworthiness, not belonging. These worlds that are not-linear, never ending, and present in the circular perception of time are called the lower, the middle and the upper world. We can travel in between this world to bring back to unity what has been excluded, what has been lost.
What if these world don’t exit out there, but instead they are inside of us, for us to adventure within?
What if the real wander is through the magical lands within?
What if these worlds are present within our body. Intertwined with the three fundamental spaces in our physical realm: the bed of the mouth, the diaphragm space and the pelvic terrain?
How would the inner journey enfold?
What if when parts of our soul are lost in these worlds, what happens is actually an energetic disconnection with these inner spaces in our physical body?
In the shamanic approach we also honor the cyclical nature of life, the interconnectedness of all, the constant becoming of life. As well as the power of shamanic rituals to bring transcendence into the Earth, into matter, to bring the sacred into our daily life.
* The Training
This is an experiential three levels training on Systemic Work and Spiritual Constellations. The emphasis is on the somatic and shamanistic approach. Stimulating physical awareness, proprioception, kinesthesis and imagination.
We are going to bring mental concepts and the “spiritual”, right into the flesh of our physical being: into the perceptual and experiential presence of our skin, tissues, bones, and fluids. We are going to invite a learning that is phenomenological. That, away from analytical processes, approaches life and consciousness in an a way that is sacred, spiritual, empirical, existential, sensuous, perceptive, intuitive and inclusive.
Level 1 can be followed independently from the next two levels. The choice to participate to this first one doesn’t implies that you have to follow the entire training. You can participate to level 1, for your own personal growth and life process. Still, the completion of this first movement, is a prerequisite to be able to join the following two levels.
* Our Resources
- Systemic principles and philosophy
- Spiritual constellation processes
- Somatic dynamics
- Shamanic ritualism & Ancestral wisdom
- Core awareness
- Expressive Arts Therapy

* When
On Sundays…..
4 & 18 December 2022, 8 & 22 January, 5 & 26 February, 12 & 26 March 2023
All dates from 14.00 to 19.00 Central Europe Time
* Where
From the intimacy of our homes and bodies, with Zoom.
* The Process
Level 1 – The movement towards life
Level 2 – The movement towards autonomy
Level 3 – The movement into the world
Each level consists of 8 modules.
Level 1
It is organized in five main areas of work
- Our meetings on Zoom.
From within our body, through our body, into our body. Our physical body would be our exploration landscape, as well as our instrument of exploration. We will become both, the explorer and the explored.
- The process in between sessions.
This phase requires your willingness to deepen and explore further, what has been touched during our meetings. You are going to receive “inspirations” in a form of suggested literatures, home rituals and exploration practices.
You will be invited, after each session, to write and deliver a short essay in which form will suits you most: a drawing, writings, a video, a story, a dance…….You choose your way to support the integration of the learning.
- It is fundamental that we feel each other presence during this adventure. That our wisdom and experience might serve as a nurturing well for each one of us. Therefore, we will create a platform where our process can mean something for one another. A platform where, we can share insights, questions, revelations, doubts, resistances and discoveries.
As we work together we will entrain into each other energy flow, becoming one field. Let’s make wise use of our belonging to this field.
What does my learning means to me?
Which one is my contribution to our cauldron? To this shared field, we are creating together?
- A one-on-one session.
For a total of two hours, you can choose to have a two times, one hour session, or one session of two hours.
I will be available for any need and question that might arise during the process.
- The development of a gradually unfolding project. A creation of any sort, nurtured and rooted into the transforming process we are in.
A way to begin to weave the learning into your already existing practice or life processes.
– In order to receive your certification for this first level, you are invited to:
- Participate to all zoom meetings. Forty hours
- Participate to our online explorations and constellations
- Two hours of individual session
- The required readings
- Self-study in between the meetings
- The presentation of eight essays. One after each meeting
- The presentation of your final project
* Areas of exploration
