Welcome!
We would love for you to join us. We're excited to invite you to our second family constellations intensive here in Aotearoa New Zealand. Creating community and connection through this phenomenal systemic, somatic and energetic ancestral work.
Looking at current entanglements, blocks and patterns that are repeatedly showing up in your everyday life. Addiction, relationship, health, finances.....
Through this work you may receive clarity, insights and potential resolutions.
Who is this for?
This is open to anyone who wants to improve their lives or is curious about family constellations. Whether this is your first contact with the work or you're an experienced facilitator, all are welcome.
There will be different levels of offering from the faculty depending on the group level of experience.
We all learn something from the field, the faculty, and the community.

“Any attendance at an ANZCI event would make an impact upon an individual, from the welcoming embrace from familiar faces, to representing and supporting the kaupapa and being receptive to what arises.
It's an experiential moment in time that can leave long lasting imprints of directional change in one's thinking and actions thereafter.
Sometimes there are no words to articulate the energy of wairua, and how that is invisibly and intricately woven it is experiential, with such divine intelligence that we recognize the
I AM, in ourselves that brings all the rauemi that we have been seeking. Thank you for reaching out into the four cornerstones and more."
Ngà mihi, Marri
“One of the most profound changes I noticed was in my relationships. I was able to heal old wounds and build stronger, healthier connections. The clarity and emotional release I experienced have brought a sense of peace and empowerment that I hadn't felt before.
Family Constellation has not only impacted me personally, but it has also positively influenced my wider family. By addressing generational trauma and understanding our shared history, we are now able to move forward with a renewed sense of unity and healing.
I highly recommend Family Constellation therapy to anyone looking to understand and resolve deep-rooted family issues. It has been life-changing, and I am grateful for the healing and growth it has brought into my life."
Jo
"I didn't quite know what to expect, but I was open. The fundamental attunement with Māori land and culture put all action and processes in the most favourable relationship with the knowing field and people.
All of the sessions were led by experienced, grounded, confident, authentic people who embodied being while guiding processes and holding all present.
The practical organisation was superb. The organising group was amazing, approachable, effective, and lovely.
The venue was perfect. Food was nutritious and plentiful and generous."
