We all wish to have happy moments. We want to love and be loved. We want to build long lasting and trusting relationships. Yet, issues and challenges arise in our lives. Undesired happenings invade us. Unwanted thoughts and feelings start to dominate our being. Our mental and emotional fields become stressed, and even traumatized, and our physical being suffers. All this also impacts our family, work, business, and community. This class focuses on a phenomenological approach to healing based on teachings by Bert Hellinger and Ron Young. Each session will start with a short meditation using visualization, breathing and sound to center the participants. We will do multiple healing constellation sessions to allow the participants experience healing at the spiritual, mental, emotional and finally in the physical realms. Sessions will be facilitated by Burc Oral, Ph.D, an earth scientist, technologist, yoga practitioner, avid kayaker and a constellator.
