What Does Healing The Past Mean?

NO WOUND CAN HEAL IF IT IS NOT TAKING CARE OF
To heal the past, we must have the courage to face the reality of painful events from our past and the wounds that they have created.

Everything that has been repressed, suppressed, deformed, ignored, or rejected will manage to find expression one way or another in our lives or it will be taken on by one of our descendants.
Recognizing what is or has been without idealizing or dramatizing it, allows us to take responsibility for our lives. In so doing, we are no longer perpetual victims of outside circumstances nor do we cause suffering for others or ourselves.

We cannot change the past, regardless of what we have done or been subjected to, but we all have the means to evolve towards greater love and consciousness.
Every experience can be an opportunity to evolve if we heighten our awareness and stop denying the facts.

IT IS ESSENTIAL TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN PAIN AND SUFFERING:
Pain is a natural component of life.
When we go through important times of change in our life (when we lose someone we love, when we get sick….) we will go through some natural and unavoidable time of grief or physical pain. Nevertheless, life goes on and little by little we adjust to the change that occurred in our life.

Suffering on the contrary is charged with emotional baggage.
It is fed by our concepts of what should or should not be; our difficulty to accept the reality of our life as it is.
It is our resistance to the stream of life.
Suffering is also fed by our past memories and our conception of right and wrong.

Our mind memorizes everything that we experience.
It refers back to the past to alert us to possible dangers or threats.
It develops our defense mechanisms as a function of our past personal, family or human experiences.
If these mechanisms have their “raison d’être” at a particular time of our life, they hold their greatest usefulness in allowing us to live our live serenely in the present.
Our mind is also the container of our entire belief system: personal, social, cultural and religious. This belief system dictates our senses of what is or is not acceptable, right and wrong to us.

HEALING THE PAST IS OPENING UP A NEW PATH TO LOVE AND TO THE INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF LIFE despite events that have compromised our past and despite our believe system.
When we understand that life is not against us but in fact that we are against life, all doors open.

When we are at peace with our past, we are free from the burdens of the past and release our children from carrying family burdens for us.

Human beings struggle because of an incapacity to accept life as it is.

The family constellation approach is a powerful process that reveals the active forces operating in our life and finds ways to break family patterns of suffering.
Bert Hellinger, worldwide known and innovative psychotherapist from Germany developed this process.

Through family and systemic constellation process you will be able to find ways to stop struggling with life.

How can we be at peace with life despite our life story or our present difficult life circumstances?
How can our difficulties become a springboard to live our life with more joy, more awareness and more meaning?
Again our past cannot be changed but it can be used to grow to a higher dimension of being.
Healing our past is a conscious individual decision to leave behind unnecessary sufferings.
The Constellation approach is a wonderful process to acknowledge life forces operating within your life and reconnecting with life’s blessings no matter what you have been through.
