1-day Nature or Systemic Constellations in Athy
Free places: details and how to apply on www.tobe.ie/freebies
A Constellation is an experiential process. Participants bear
witness how, unconsciously, their ways are influenced by
the groups they belong to. Often, handed down to us from
generation to generation.
The culture in our workplace, the environmental places we live in, the habits in our family,
the stories that keep the groups we belong to ‘together’ - these all may have served some
purpose in the past. They may no longer serve us today.
Throughout the year we hold Nature Constellations and Systemic Constellations. On each
day 3 separate Constellations are set from participants queries. The process brings insight
and clarity to everyone involved. Fellow participants are asked to be representatives in a
query, but there is no obligation.
Systemic Constellations, processes patterns we have adopted from moving in our
workplace. The day gives great insight in and release from how cultural dynamics, often
unspoken and unrecognised, hold us back. Queries from participants can be about their
actual workplace or the larger area concerned, like ‘ecology’, ‘education’, ‘health’, ‘justice’
and such. Dates in 2023: 18 May, 27 July, 14 September and 9 November.
Nature Constellations, reconnect us to being part of, rather than being separate from
nature. Specific nature queries around animals, farms, environment, placing of buildings or
layout of gardens or with larger areas like ‘climate change’ or ‘community development’
can be brought. Seemingly ‘human’ query often become enlightened by including the full
ecological perspective. Weather permitting, we work outdoors.
Dates in 2023: 20 May, 29 July, 16 September and 11 November.
After the process of a Constellation, we do not analyse the experience. We may say a few
words, but in essence this is an experiential day.
