Health and Illness Constellations Stephan Hausner and Bibi Schreuder
Bert Hellinger Instituut Nederland
“Anything that enters into a relationship can heal” Thomas Huebl 9 Days, three modules of three days each 1 optional practice day Bert Hellinger Instituut Nederland, Groningen, the Netherlands
Introduction There is a growing interest in looking at symptoms and illnesses in a systemic way. Although we are still at the beginning of gathering insights in this field, the time seems ripe to explore the multiple dimensions of illnesses from a systemic perspective. Constellations offer a ‘method’ where patients can see new connections related to their illness and find support in the process of self-healing. Stephan Hausner has collected many insights over the years on how to apply the systemic approach to create an atmosphere where (self-) healing is possible. Now Stephan Hausner and Bibi Schreuder offer a training with the following goals: To see health and illness in a systemic perspective. To learn about facilitating constellations with health issues. Bibi Schreuder of the Dutch Bert Hellinger Institute will be the organizer of this training. As co-trainer she provides exercises to support the participants in their process of learning. A hand-out will not be issued for this training.
For whom This is a training for facilitators of constellations. Learning has priority above being client. During all the modules guest clients will be invited by the participants. Stephan will work with these guest clients and after we will reflect on the constellation, the interventions and the images behind the interventions. The participants will practice to fine tune their inner attitude as professionals.
Peer groups We strongly recommend that in between the modules participants practice in peer groups as well. Especially the given exercises and mini-constellations for your own development as a facilitator. There will be time during the modules for the questions of the peer groups.
Content of the training During the training program you will be offered the basic theory and experience, enabling you to approach health issues in a systemic way. An important part of the training focuses on the attitude of the facilitator towards health and illness and his or her beliefs on what can be healed. Exercises in the form of mini-constellations will give you insights about your own position in the system and the response of the client-system at your inner attitude as a professional.
Three modules Each module has an educational focus. And it will be a co-creating process of the trainer and the participants, directed by the questions of the participants. Module 1 In the first module the focus is on the interaction between client, constellation and facilitator. Stephan shows how he constantly watches the responses in the clients body, leading him through the constellation process. There will be exercises to fine tune your senses to get information from body responses.
Module 2 In the second module the focus is on the inner attitude of the facilitator and his/her position in the system and how this influences the constellation process. z How do you as facilitator deal with your own family system and family patterns. z How do patterns repeat in the interaction between facilitator and client ánd constellation. During this module we also focus on bonding patterns: z How to recognize bonding patterns. z What is the response of the facilitator to the bonding patterns of the client? Practice day (optional, free of charge) Participants of the Training Health and Illness can participate the practice day after module two. Bibi Schreuder will supervise the participants. With all kinds of exercises and facilitating (parts of) constellations participants can integrate the learnings of the first two modules. Module 3 In the third module the focus is on life and death issues and your ethics when working with (life threatening) illness. z How do you relate to clients with a life threatening illness? z How do you relate to death? z What position do you take in relation to the regular medical doctors and healthcare? z What do you tell your clients about what they can expect from doing a constellation? Overall topics Topics regarding the process of the constellation will be part of the whole training: Creating a setting: z How to create a setting where systems open up and constellations can unfold?
Initial interview: z What type of questions do you ask the client? z Which questions do you ask yourself as a facilitator? z What other information do you use besides words? z Systemic perception of the client and the clients system Design of the constellation: z Which elements to set up. z When (not) to set up an element for the symptom. z Interventions: There are many interventions possible. How to find your way through the constellation? What are the key interventions? z The role of the client during the constellation. z Healing sentences and process work. z When to stop and conclude a constellation. Expectations: z How to deal with the expectations of the client regarding the results of a constellation? z When not to work/facilitate a constellation.
