Family Systemic Constellation Work
Family Systemic Constellation work is an individual and group, experiential and therapeutic approach to transforming stuck life issues with an embodied approach and a systemic perspective. Embodied meaning that we begin to navigate our inner and outer world with a felt sense of connection with all of our heart, mind, spirit and body. Systemic meaning that we are all connected.
and a guide for our own inner work. The principles of systemic constellation work acts as a guide. With practice the principles can bring insight, clarity, and order to many issues of a personal, relational, work, financial, or other challenges. By embodying the learning as we gain a new perspective, our learning and healing aids our understanding, enhancing our capacity for love and compassion.
This work addresses individual (intrapersonal and interpersonal), generational (specific generation), intergenerational (interaction between different generations) and transgenerational (transmission of effects, patterns, issues across multiple generations) issues, traumas, entanglements, legacy burdens and fosters peace in our hearts, in our daily life and in our relationships.
Family Systemic Constellations helps us to clearly identify an issue by allowing our awareness into dynamic patterns, past events and complex situations across time, to emerge gently. The Now of past, present and future becomes clearer to us. Clarity and understanding allow us the possibility of a new way, that positively affects our day-to-day life.
Our courage to do the inner work and healing, helps us to find a pathway through family, work, financial or relationship difficulties and personal challenges to our place of strength, calm and belonging. When we participate in this work, individually and collectively, we realise the profound gift that our vulnerability gives us - not only for ourselves but for the past, present and emerging generations.
​
Family Systemic Constellation Work fosters inner growth, fresh unlearning and collective healing. Moments of heartfelt awareness help us transform our life's challenges into our life's gems and can guide our understanding in a deeper, clearer and inspired way that gently ripples out to the world around us.
Bert Hellinger, founder of this therapeutic process, discerned the Orders of Love, he describes as four key principles of the work. They are metaphysical, practical and move us toward our right place of belonging and harmony within our family and organisational systems: " Laws that govern harmony within a family system, ensuring peace and strength when aligned" (TB & KJC in A Guide to Family Systemic Constellations -A Day in the Life of a Workshop, 2025). Hellinger, when observing these natural laws of order and harmony, also profoundly came to a new way of understanding 'conscience' and this has opened up perspectives in which to put aside our usual family narratives and stories to look at facts and events that shape us; to rediscover the hidden gems of love that abide deep within our ancestral lines just waiting to be seen. This is a phenomenological work that is lived, felt and when embraced has the potential to bring us much freedom and joy despite life struggles.

" A 'constellation' refers to various groupings, forming recognisable patterns that we can navigate by, such as stars in the sky, families and organisations."​​
(Dr TB & KJC in A Guide to Family Systemic Constellations - A Day in the Life of a Workshop, 2025)

"Moments of heartfelt awareness help us
transform our life's challenges into our life's gems"
Karena J Coller​
​
Just like gems form under intense pressure, life’s hardships shape us into something stronger, more resilient, and uniquely brilliant. Every challenge, heartbreak, and moment of growth refines us, revealing new depths of character and wisdom.
Some of the most precious gems—like diamonds—start as ordinary carbon before being transformed by immense heat and pressure. Similarly, our struggles carve out the facets of who we become, making us shine in ways we never imagined. It’s a poetic reminder that even in adversity, there’s the potential for beauty.
