Dear friends and colleagues,
Summer is so hot here in Germany! So on Thursday I got with my wife to
Scotland and travel 2 weeks around in a Mobilehome. We hope it will not
always rain there!
So before my holidays I want to give the final information about this big
international seminar in Germany I announced in the last newsletter. You
find all information for inscription attached and on my website Ulsamer.com
Seminare. There are only 7 international places but I also will install a
waiting list.
Some thoughts about trauma therapy and constellation: The traumatherapy
(SE) of Peter Levine in which I am trained wants to reestablish the natural
animal life force after a trauma. Constellations focus on the relationships
which are may also be destroyed in a trauma. Basically constellations are
not a trauma therapy in itself but they can support strongly such therapy.
In a group I see the importance of the relationship which develops a
traumatized client with the therapist and the group. Therapist and group
members can be such a healing force! And this is not with techniques or
exercises, healing is accepting, sharing, understanding, respecting.
Sometimes techniques – and also constellations – may serve the protection
of the therapist. A client tells something very horrible what he
experienced. Instead of really feeling it, a facilitator jumps to do a
constellation. With a method he feels safer. To allow the moments of
helplessness and not knowing seems to me more difficult but more supportive
also.
Now in many parts of the earth is summer. In the sun nobody wants to be
bothered by problems. Light in itself is nourishing.
Have a long and happy summer (or winter if live in this part of the world!)
Bertold
