A FAMILY CONSTELLATION WORKSHOP WITH BILL MANNLE
Disruption in the flow of love caused by traumas, abandonment, and loss ripples into the shadows of the family landscape, often emerging as illness, insecure attachments, emotional difficulties, and broken relationships.
Family Constellations is a unique, experiential approach to healing. A kind of "living map," it provides a creative and profound way of seeing into the turbulence that shapes our lives and the suffering we experience. It has the potential to touch us on a deep, energetic level, often leading to a transformation and a realization that we are no longer alone.
This workshop grew out of the question above: How Do You Want To Be Loved? When I would ask this question of clients, there often followed a pause, a slight shudder in the body, a deep sigh, and sometimes tears. I am interested in that pause, the body response, the exquisite raw emotion that said, “See me.”
After 22 years of deep immersion in Family Constellations and leading trainings since 2012, I am offering my in-depth Facilitator Training in the Shoreline area of Connecticut. This training is more than a learning experience—it is a journey into the heart of the work, an opportunity to expand your capacity to see, feel, and hold space for others in profound ways.
In life, surrender is not a weakness; instead, it's an opportunity. When we fall in love, we let go of some of our inner certainty, defenses, and illusions of control. As we age, we trade the vitality of youth for the wisdom that leads to a more profound sense of purpose. When we grieve, we surrender to the profound loss of a loved one, allowing their memory and love to wash over us and continue living within us.
To fully love and live authentically, we must also surrender the noise—the inherited conditioning, outdated beliefs, and inner critic that keep us stuck and, ultimately, the sword of anger and rage at everyone and everything that wounded us. Only then can we hear the quiet truth of our hearts and step into the flow of life with clarity and peace.
Surrender, when woven into the fabric of love, opens to transformation.
