How the Systemic Constellations Workshop Works
A step-by-step breakdown of the workshop process
1Setup
Identify the issue holder and clarify the question to explore. Brief the group on the process and ask for volunteers to represent system elements.
2Step 1: Setting Up the Constellation
The issue holder places representatives in the space to create an initial spatial picture of the system based on their perception, without verbal explanations.
3Step 2: Gathering First Impressions
Representatives share their feelings and observations from their positions in the constellation, revealing initial insights and sensations related to the system.
4Step 3: Allowing Movement
Representatives are encouraged to move based on intuitive impulses, allowing the system to find its own resolution or reveal deeper dynamics through movement.
