Family Constellation Event [read about Family Constellation Work] Dates and Location: Check with The Systemic Constellations Group
b
Family Constellations Workshops based on the work of Bert Hellinger Have you ever felt that no matter how much you’ve wrestled with an issue nothing seems to change? Unknown forces often affect our lives in ways we do not understand. A family constellation provides an opportunity to view the invisible dynamics which may be driving your life. Would you like to shine new light on your life challenges? We invite you to participate in what could be a life altering experience. Whether in your own constellation or as a representative in another’s, engage in a unique forum for self discovery. Such experiences can be deeply moving and healing for everyone. Bert Hellinger, an international figure in the healing community, has developed the family constellation method as a way to uncover unseen forces which entangle us in fates that do not truly belong to us. These fates are often the legacies of family members—frequently from previous generations—who were unwilling or unable to resolve their issues. You must see and feel the constellation process in order to get it. Serving as a representative is like stepping into the energetic field or soul of the family. It is as though the representatives are “channeling” the family energy field of the client—thus revealing the unseen forces which have held current family members captive in life patterns not previously understood. Constellations reveal root causes of pain and “stuckness” and may offer healing and transformation. Location: Check calendar at The Systemic Constellations Group Facilitators from The Systemic Constellations Group, LLC will lead each workshop. The Constellations Group consists of four facilitators with advanced training in the constellation methodology. Our mission is to promote and facilitate family and systemic constellations for the understanding, healing and evolution of our community and ourselves. The Constellations Group, LLC members are Carol Heil (301) 899-4841, LCSW-C, Diane Hetherington, M.S., M.C.C. (301-215-6793), Betsy Hostetler, Ph.D. (202) 362-8672, and Mary Rentschler, M.Ed. (202) 244-8280. To register: [see on their internet site] |

Cranio-Sacral/Biodynamics Homecare Basics--For the home unit: For couples, families and people who work together to support each other on Life's Journey. Individuals are welcome too, as this is adaptable. This six-hour experience begins with the background of Dr. Wilson's program of Cranio-Sacral Therapy that he calls Cranial Bio-Dynamics. You then learn what could be called "The Care and Feeding of Your Autonomic Cranio-Sacral System." The teaching features basic self-care techniques that Dr. Wilson shows his patients how to do for themselves. You will also learn a powerful procedure that can be done by one person for another (though solo treatment can be very helpful too). This is based on the Integrative Medicine and Biological Dentistry model described on the NIHA web site. This is not Upledger training. Dr. Wilson draws on his knowledge gained from different schools of thought regarding cranio-sacral fluid dynamics. Bring a sack lunch and be prepared to join in an empowering workshop that w ATTENDANCE: Any adult, or children accompanied by adult. Limited to 20 in class. Preregistration is important so we will not have too many people attending, and so you can be given building access instructions for weekend access. PREPARATION: None required. Recommended: Your Inner Physician and You by John Upledger D.O. Other background could be his text, Craniosacral Therapy. Next Presentation: To Be Announced |

Controlling Your Own Body: Biofeedback, Detoxification & Personal Wholeness Dr. Wilson presents his overview of the approach used by NIHA practitioners to guide health care. Detoxification -- of "Metals, Microbes and Memories" -- is often the key factor in solving puzzling health concerns. He describes how integrative medicine practitioners use "detox" as part of an overall program of health support. Including home care steps you can take to enhance your treatment program.

| Cranial Bio-Dynamics: I teach this
workshop on the basics of Cranio-Sacral Therapy as integrated into the larger
framework I use as a model of health. Background: Cranio-Sacral Therapy | Theory linking Craniosacral Therapy, Reverse Speech and Yogic Death and Resuscitation | Expanded Paradigm The text for the workshop is Dr. Upledger's Craniosacral Therapy. The intent of the training is to give you the basics and let you decide whether to take more involved training with the official Upledger trainers, or other trainers whose work I will describe for you. NOTE: This is not Upledger certification. Next Presentation: To Be Announced. References: Links to-- Dr. Upledger's Approach | Dr. Thom's Approach. Typical Event Description: Cranial
Bio-Dynamics -- Cranio-Sacral Therapy Basics: A
workshop/book study of the 10-Step Protocol Dr.
Ralph Wilson, N.D., M.S. Acupuncture The workshop is a combination of book
study and hands-on teaching of the kinesthetic skills to perform the basic
Ten-Step Protocol. It is not official Upledger certification. I describe it as a way for you to decide if you are enthusiastic enough about the work that you want to invest the great expense that could be needed if they were to take Upledger certification. My workshop program is intensive and
requires outside study. After the first class there is home practice. We
will also discuss a possible reunion and follow-up event in the future. Cranial
Bio-Dynamics: The program that I have developed over the years offers
abbreviated aspects of Upledger's teaching. I teach how to feel and do the
10-Step Protocol. I use handouts, models and other teaching aids. I
recommend the same books.
I often describe it as a book study meeting, or a way to evaluate
if you want to spend the great amount to become Upledger certified. This
is not official Upledger certification training. I also include
information on "Cranial Fluid Dynamics," that I learned from
workshops with one of his competitors, Solihin Thom, D.O. from England, so
you get a broader exposure to the dynamics of how the body really works. I
have taught this under the label, "Cranial Bio-Dynamics." The class goes from Prerequisites:
A strong desire to learn, a license is not required. The class can be
taken by someone who is considering a career in health care or by someone
already licensed or trained in health care techniques. This event gives an
overview of health care from a naturopathic medicine point of view. The
introductory portion includes description of the model I use when
assessing a patient's health: "Cranial Bio-Dynamics." If
possible read the books: Craniosacral Therapy, and Your Inner
Physician and You, both by The size of the class is limited, I can
teach a maximum of 12 people. |
