Family constellations provide understanding and cleansing of our relations with our parents, brothers and sisters, partners and children. Unconscious images of our original family influence our present circumstances. By making a constellation, the unconscious structure becomes visible and change of our inner image, its re-interpretation and healing become possible. We will also look at other powers sometimes found inside of us, sometimes outside, that influence and even govern our life. This usually happens unconsciously. We can perhaps name these forces or powers making them conscious and thus integrating them into our life-force. Part of the program will be Sufi practices to facilitate the opening of our inner world. The purpose of these practices is to empty ourselves and feel our hearts clean.

  The Mystery of Life and Death - Sources of inner Strength, healing and blessing for the Time of Transition  
  Date: April 26-29      
  Price: 150 EUR      
   

With Rev. Alima Stoeckel from Germany.

In a healing and powerful way we want to become aware and acknowledge the finiteness of our life on earth and touch the immortality of our soul. In looking at our own path of life, death and dying - and in remembering our beloved ones on the other side we can experience very healing energies. Some issues in our lives, in the lives of the ancestors and in the collective consciousness need attention, solutions and healing in order to experience inner peace and live our life with strength and blessing.

Spiritual dances, chants, rituals and meditation and constellation work show us a way to find deep within healing, support, comfort, power and hope for our lives.
The seminar can be for own experience as well as training for professionals.

  CHAKRA HEALING  
  Date: August 17-22      
  Price: 200 EUR      
   

With Ma Deva Ambu.

Chakra Healing is a process which detects wounds in the emotional body and releases them into a healing process. Emotional traumas, deep-seated mental blocks and even chronic physical symptoms can often be traced to past life experiences still locked in the chakras, or energy centers, of our unconscious. Chakra Healing releases these blocks to consciousness and restore the natural flow of our energy Healing then happens by itself.

Chakra Healing is a deep energy group helping individuals to explore the strength and contradictions in their energy centers or chakras. The group supports , people understand and work with their subtle energy bodies. We use dynamic meditations, hypnosis, past life movies, color healing, dance, shamanistic energy work, and theatre structures each day to charge one of the five basic energy centers, the sexual center, the power center, the heart center, the throat center and the third eye. By bringing energy to those centers, the wounds or contradictions from childhood and past lifes surface by themselves and participants learn healing ways to release and harmonize these energies.

We use traditional African rhythms to connect the drumming, motion and voice /rhythmical vocalism/ into one complex unit. The goal of this "path to our roots" is to deepen universally artistic expression, mainly through allowing to connect the human consciousness with universal beat, which exists in different forms within each of us, as well as outside in the outer world. Thanks to complementary rhythms, which are specific to African music, we will learn to perceive the rhythm in its original form: as universal language that serves as direct and living communication among individual players.
