BeingHuman Constellation

Purpose

• The first evening facilitates an initial understanding of an emergent ontology–what constitutes a human being; in context to the outer and interior selves and the inner nature (soul) of a human being. This constructs the working premise that will prevail over the following two days. Participants will then start to discern the binary or dual nature of their constitutional, physiological, behavioural, and mental selves and the inner dynamic that is the soul, that ought to govern and guide us.

The constellation process will then be illustrated to give you an understanding of its sophistication and the differences between how this is conducted and other constellation models.

Purpose

• The initial process is to help a candidate to see, in animation of the participants or representatives a mirror of the person’s state and internal architecture.
• NB Our internal architecture is what we possess to navigate our outer and interior lives. Our inner or soul ought to be the guiding mechanism, but usually is put aside, as an innate understanding or acknowledgement that we have soul, but it does not guide, consciously.

Day 2 and 3

The introduction of the psychospiritual elements of virtual allies into the collective understanding as tools for resolution

• As with any process, we need resolution. Introducing these pillars as virtues or qualities represents the existential medicine for resolution.
• The psychospiritual pillars are twofold. They are hierarchical, develop over time, and often do not appear in order as people experience life’s vagaries.
• Here, we present the caduceus, the ancient symbol of medicine, refined to enhance our understanding and appreciation of the specific human virtues it imparts. 
• Secondly, we outline the evolution of love through the heart, an organ in development; love grows through stages. 
• One or both of these elements may appear in the constellation, usually as spoken clues and cues, and then be brought into the system to help reorganise the organism. These represent the human medicine that facilitates deep changes, and healing.

Constellations for the participants

• This workshop is experiential. It involves group and individual constellations as the participants articulate their needs or wishes. Thus, it involves little or large vignettes or full-organised constellations to help reveal what is at the heart of the matter.
• Unfortunately, as the process is free-flowing, the timetable is subject to the dynamic of the group and the process at hand.
• However, it is always mediated by the facilitators, whose role is to contain, halt, guide, and elucidate the process during the constellation to assist the individual or group in understanding their internal journey. The facilitator may curtail the constellation if necessary or if sufficient information has been gathered.

Outcome

• The participants will have a working understanding of their internal self, both their functional self and their inner Self or essence. 
• The process is to ‘switch-on’ these new allies or bridges, so that they become pillars of their own development.
• They will be able differentiate between the three elements of self – a logically ordered structured self, a gestalt, narrative-driven self and an inner Self.
• They will recognise the tools that help: the Caduceus as a toolbox of qualities to organise their lives and the heart as an instrument of love that supersedes all else and governs life itself at its highest order.
• Recognizing this as an evolutionary step removes the notion of hierarchy and encompasses states of consciousness that broaden and expand our capacity as human beings. The process is multidimensional and is not merely a hierarchical tool but also horizontal.
  • In this way, if put into practice, this knowledge is life-altering.
