Family Constellationsbegins with the premise: it did not start with me. Rather than focus on childhood conflicts, as so much of traditional therapy does, it focuses instead on how historical traumas reverberate through what Family constellations calls a "family system."
In this book, the reader will be able to use the core principles of Family Constellations to understand their family story and how, on a subconscious level, they 'took on' destructive familial patterns as a way of 'belonging' in their family and, ultimately how to finally break free from that story and write their own. Affirmations and exercises punctuate every chapter, created to help the reader actively engage with and experience the benefits of Family Constellations in a concrete and real way, for deep healing and lasting change. Readers will also learn how to:
- Recognize family system patterns and disrupt them
- Heal the inner child and parent the adult self
- Release limiting beliefs and behaviors
- Dissolve trauma bonds that entangle them with the past
- Reconcile the past and the present, for a whole and integrated self
- Arrive at a place of personal peace within the family system
- Craft future-facing narratives that empower them to live authentically
