All are welcome
to attend these evenings.
A Family Constellation is a 60 minute group process that has the power
to heal generations of suffering and unhappiness. Bert Hellinger,(www.Hellinger.com)
the founder of this work, studied and treated families for more than 50
years. He observed that many of us unconsciously, blindly, take on destructive
familial patterns of guilt, pain, anxiety, depression, alcoholism and
illness as a way of being loyal to our families.
Bonded by a deep love, a child will often sacrifice his own best interests
in a vain attempt to ease the suffering or solve the unfinished business
of another family member.
Constellation work allows us to untangle ourselves from these unconscious
loyalties, and offers us the opportunity to find a reconciliation or solution
which helps ourselves and generations, past, present, and future. This
process reaches beyond the mind, transforming real images into powerful
forces for healing.
A participant will choose others from the group to represent certain
family members. These representatives will then experience hidden dynamics
within the family system.
Working with the representatives, the facilitator will attempt to restore
respect, dignity and love between all members of the family, especially
those who have been excluded or forgotten. As peace and reconciliation
is achieved, the love and strength in a family can then begin to flow
in a new way.
Each constellation unfolds at its own pace with the integrity of the
energy that emerges. Every person in this group may not have the opportunity
to be a client on a given night, but all present will benefit from the
common work.
Gail Cloud has been a Chiropractic Physician for 18 years utilizing an
eclectic blend of chiropractic and energy work.
She has just completed her training with Suzi Tucker and Mark Wolynn and
is now a trained facilitator in this phenomenological approach to health.

On-going Guided Learning :
I am compiling a core system of learning for this coming year entitled; “On-Going Guided Learning.” This will be an opportunity for those interested, to engage in a process of learning which includes a curriculum, your own 3D family mapping experiences, in other words, constellation, and other experiential exercises.
On-Going Guided Learning will include a program of study that Mark Wolynn, Suzi Tucker and others have fashioned to enhance familiarity with this phenomenal and experiential work. The syllabus will include the following topics: orders of love; principles and practice of systemic work; levels of feeling; orders of precedence; the three levels of conscience; free will versus fate; parents and children; the interrupted bond; forgiveness versus agreement; guilt and innocence; bonding and belonging; the balance of giving and taking; success and failure; systemic messages; dynamics of war; and more. Hopefully, we can work in guest facilitators: Mark Wolynn, possibly Suzi Tucker, Judy Smith, and others.
This learning event will afford one with the option to invite a friend or family member interested in having their own constellation experience. Your invitation to another allows our learning group to see and be involved in other’s constellations for us to review and learn from. (This individual will be responsible to pay a small fee.)
I envision that we will meet for seven to eight Sunday afternoons during the calendar year. Sessions would begin September 21, 2008. Each session would meet from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tentatively we would meet on: September 21, 2008, October 19, 2008, December 14, 2008, February 1, 2009, March 8, 2009, April 19th, and June 14th. If one or two dates are missed due to scheduling conflicts, we will arrange for someone to fill you in and give you notes of what has transpired. More than 2 scheduled absences will impact upon the group experience and will be difficult to make up.
The cost will be $800.00 for 7 sessions. Submit full payment by September 21, 2008 and I will deduct $100.00
(making your cost $700.00). Please note there must be a minimum of 8 people to commit with an maximum of 14 for On Going Guided Learning Experience to commence.
On going Guided Learning will dovetail nicely with the Mark Wolynn workshop scheduled here in St. Louis on November 1st and 2nd, 2008, and the 3rd and 4th for training. You may choose to participate in Wolynn’s workshop. Date, time, place, cost will be announced under separate cover.
Your feedback regarding your interest will certainly be appreciated. Do let me know if the dates pose any conflicts, and we can have some freedom with the dates. Please, then, suggest dates that would work for you. Feel free to forward this invitation to interested family or friends. I look forward to your response.
Most Respectfully,
Gail Cloud, D.C.

Workshops:
Understanding and Breaking the cycles of Pain
Working with the dynamics of pain, unhappiness, addictions, illness,
relationship struggles, the ravages of war and other dysfunctions we carry
with us, unintentionally, and even blindly, to bring more wholeness and
lightness to ourselves and our families, past, present, and even future.
Most of us will receive a constellation, image, which bypasses our usual
thought processes and allows us to see beyond the stories we tell of our
family to a greater perspective and one which shows hidden loyalties and
dynamics in our families.
This can often change, in an instant, years of past suffering.

Trainer: Mark Wolynn
Director of The Center for Behavioral Genetics
Dallas 4-day Intensive – September 6-9th
Los Angeles 4-day Intensive – September 20th-23rd
St Louis 4-day Intensive – November 1st - 4th
Saturday and Sunday 10am -7pm
Monday and Tuesday 10am -6pm
Level 1 – Fee: $595
This 4-day intensive is designed to provide a working knowledge of the principles, practical aspects and applications of Bert Hellinger's phenomenological approach to working with family systems. Together we will construct a systemic lens through which students can explore their personal as well as their clients' most complex and difficult issues. Students will learn to expand the traditional "family tree" to include those members whose exclusion or rejection has caused discord in system. Other topics will include: Orders of Precedence, Three Levels of Conscience, What Creates Bonding and Belonging in Families, Guilt and Innocence and the Systemic Messages that keep us mired in destructive patterns. Upon completion, students will be able to apply systemic principles in their own practices with groups, couples or individuals.
On Saturday and Sunday, there an open workshop from 10 to 5 PM, followed by a closed session for trainees only from 5 to 7:00 PM. These two hours will be used to breakdown and discuss dynamics observed throughout the workshop. The program format for Monday and Tuesday will consist of didactic and experiential opportunities to deepen the student’s clinical knowledge of the systemic forces behind family entanglements. Through participation in group exercises and by doing personal work, students will experience firsthand the effects and benefits of working in this valuable model.
By attending any five of the four-day modules offered by The Center for Behavioral Genetics, students will receive a certificate of completion.
