Episode Highlights
What is Family Constellations Therapy?
Family constellations therapy involves discovering your family story and understanding how it subconsciously impacts your life.
If you don’t acknowledge your family story, it might affect your adult life.
A part of this process is uncovering the things you’re holding on to, which keep you from moving forward.
Rosie had more revelations in a session of family constellations than she has ever had in therapy.
Marine’s Journey to Family Constellations
At first, Marine Selenee just wanted to understand why her father abandoned them.
She was introduced to family constellations when she hit rock bottom at 25 years old.
The simple idea of family constellations is that you’re responsible for holding onto your past or moving on from it.
The Impact of Acknowledging Your Past
The real burden is not the past itself but how you hold onto it.
Your past is not going to change. You can only change your perception of it.
By acknowledging it, we stop waiting for the narrative to change.
Any issues you are dealing with right now stem from a lack of belonging.
It takes courage to change to another dynamic.
