Family Systemic Constellation Work
Family Systemic Constellations is a both an experiential and therapeutic approach to issues and a guide for our own inner work. This transformative practice can provide clarity and insight into many issues in personal, relational and other challenges, promoting learning and healing through understanding, love and compassion. It addresses intergenerational trauma and fosters peace in our hearts, our daily life and relationships. It clearly identifies an issue by allowing awareness into dynamic patterns, events and situations across time - the Now of past, present and future that can affect our day to day lives today. It helps us to find a pathway through family dysfunction, work or relationship difficulties or personal challenges to discover a new perspective and our place of strength, calm and belonging. Family Systemic Constellation practice fosters inner growth, learning and healing. Moments of heartfelt awareness help us transform 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.
Orders of Love describe four of the key principles of the work. They are metaphysical, practical and move us toward peace, clarity and harmony, " Laws that govern harmony within a family system, ensuring peace and strength when aligned" (TB & KJC). Bert Hellinger, founder of this work, when observing these laws also noticed 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 the facts and events that shape us; to phenomenologically rediscover the hidden gems of love that abide deep within our ancestral lines just waiting to be seen and embraced.
​
" 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, April 2025)

"Moments of heartfelt awareness help us
transform 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.
