A powerful experience through Family Constellations healing our relationship with our father and regaining the strength of our male lineage.
About this Event

In this experiential workshop, we’ll explore how our earliest relationship with the father shapes the way we trust, express ourselves, and step into the world. Through guided practices inspired by Family Constellations, we’ll release inherited patterns and reclaim our strength and belonging.


Do you ever feel like you’re holding back — from the life you know is meant for you?
Do you question your worth, your voice, or your right to take up space?
Do you long to trust — yourself, others, or the world — yet hesitate at the edge of what’s unfamiliar?


These patterns often trace back to our early encounter with the first bond beyond our mother’s arms — our relationship with our father. Unlike the immediate, immersive bond we form with our mothers, our fathers arrive as something slightly beyond us. We first know them through the sound of a voice, the atmosphere surrounding our mother, the space she makes for him in her love. His presence — or absence — becomes the blueprint for how we meet the wider world.


Archetypically, the father carries the energy of exploration, protection, and contribution. He shows us how to step beyond what is known, how to meet difference without losing ourselves, how to trust life and our capacity to meet it. When this bond is wounded — through absence, criticism, distance, or unresolved pain — it can leave us shrinking from our potential, striving endlessly for approval, mistrusting authority, or questioning our right to belong.


Healing the father wound is not about changing the past. It’s about turning toward it with compassion and curiosity — acknowledging both what was given and what was missing, and reclaiming the strength, trust, and direction that are inherently ours. It’s about completing the inner movement of stepping into the world and rooting ourselves in the knowing that we belong here.


Imagine a path to healing.


In this transformative in-person workshop, you’ll experience the power of Family Constellations to gently reveal and release the deeper layers of your relationship with the father — and with the world beyond your early home. Through experiential practices, including powerful healing sentences, grounding and embodied movements, and deeply restorative guided meditations, you’ll be invited to return what is not yours to carry and reclaim the strength, trust, and possibility that belong to you.


You will enjoy this workshop if:


  • You learn best by doing — you prefer hands-on experiences and embodied practices over purely intellectual discussion.
  • You believe your body holds wisdom — you recognize the connection between your physical self and your emotional well-being and are open to somatic exploration.
  • You find comfort and clarity through guided meditation.
  • You’re curious about Family Constellations — whether you’re a seasoned explorer or just beginning to learn.
  • You’re seeking a supportive, compassionate space to gently meet deep-seated patterns and cultivate inner strength and trust.
