Family Systems Reframe
December 5 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
with Ben Emery
Thursday, Dec 5 10-11:30am
Join us for a transformative workshop designed to navigate the emotional aftermath of the recent presidential election. Without revealing personal political preferences, we’ll explore biases, shared human needs, and the cultural divides that shape us. Using interactive tools like systemic constellations and Liberating Structures, we’ll create a space for humor, healing, and connection across differences. This experiment in civil discourse challenges the norm of like-minded association, offering an alternative path to understanding. Walk away feeling heartened, less rigid in your perspectives, and more connected to others, regardless of political beliefs. Together, we’ll discover hope in unlikely places.
The Family Systems Reframe draws on the European modality known as Systemic Constellations.
What is a constellation? The shape that is taken when the people, agendas, desires, blockages, inherited stories and other invisible forces that inform a given person’s way of being in the world are invited to assume physical form in the present, despite all the reasons to keep such things hidden away.
The Family Systems Reframe workshop takes a decisive step back from group therapy in favor of something more akin to fireside storying; along with all the laughter and camaraderie that might come with it.
