Good Morning;
I agree about the donation. I am facilitating a workshop this weekend and have
invited the experienced ones to participate with a donation....I am now
grateful to some feedback coming in about this...I trust that I also would know
when this is not the most appropriate way to move, with each workshop, as they
seem to all be new and unique to the individuals who presence themselves...Rita

questions for the group
Hilary, you asked>
1. infants and moms coming to constellations? I was asked
recently by a
mom with a newborn about attending a constellation which meant bringing
her newborn. I found myself hesitate to respond and said I would think
further and consult colleagues. Over the years, I do not recall seeing
a mother with a newborn. Has Bert expressed thoughts on this? Others?
I would greatly appreciate hearing from the group.
----------
Going by a few experiences of a mother
attending a workshop with her infant
let me share this:
if mum and baby are in harmony it is a gift to the group
to have both attending;
naturally mum is restricted in her freedom
to represent and more so to
experience her own constellation;
a trusted backup who is in tune with the baby is
necessary for her to embark on either
--------------
2. clients who have done constellations returning free of charge to
constellation events: I have noted several facilitators encourage
clients to return to subsequent constellation events free of charge.
Having a good
number of people attend workshops is often an issue here. Again, I welcome
thoughts and discussion.
-------------------
It turned out to be good practice
to encourage ongoing attendance
of workshops by way of a financial incentive.
However not by the offer "free of charge";
free unfortunately in our western thinking
has a ring of lesser value about it.
My open invitation is: continue to attend by donation.
In an ideal world wouldn't we gladly
offer the work entirely by donation?
