QUO VADIS: WHERE ARE YOU GOING? A PRE-SOLSTICE FAMILY CONSTELLATION RETREAT


  • THE SHORELINE CENTER FOR RESILIENCE 61 Middle Beach Road Madison, CT, 06443 United States (map)

In our lives, we often find ourselves at a crossroads, questioning our direction and our choices. One profound question arises in these moments: "Am I truly on my "own" path?" "Where am I going?"

Inherited Patterns and Expectations

Many of us unconsciously carry our family members' expectations, dreams, and unresolved issues. These inherited patterns can shape our decisions and life direction without realizing it. From a young age, we might "be subtly influenced" to follow a path that our parents or ancestors have laid out, driven by a sense of duty, loyalty, or a desire to fulfill their unachieved ambitions.

Signs You Might Not Be on Your Path

  1. Lack of Fulfillment: You feel a persistent sense of dissatisfaction or emptiness despite achieving external success.

  2. Repetitive Patterns: You notice recurring themes or challenges in your life that mirror those your family members face.

  3. Inner Conflict: There is a constant internal struggle between what you want and what you feel obligated to do.

  4. Feeling Stuck: You experience a sense of being stuck or unable to move forward despite your efforts.


The Role of Family Constellations

Family Constellations is an approach that helps uncover and bring these hidden influences to light. By setting up a "constellation," you can visually and experientially explore the dynamics within your family system. This process can reveal how past traumas, unresolved issues, and unspoken agreements affect your life choices.

Discovering Your True Path

  1. Awareness: The first step is understanding the unconscious patterns and expectations influencing you.

  2. Exploration: Through Family Constellations, you explore these dynamics and gain insights into how they impact your life.

  3. Release: By recognizing and acknowledging these influences, you can begin to release them and make conscious choices that align with your true self.

  4. Empowerment: With this newfound clarity, you can step onto your path, guided by your values, passions, and desires.
