FAQ
It is common to feel fear of the new and unknown, a reflection of our brain's protective mechanisms. To help clarify your doubts and assist in your decision-making, I have compiled the most frequently asked questions. Shall we begin?
Are you part of an association in Canada that guarantees reimbursement for your sessions?
Yes. Here in Canada, I am a member of the da L’Association des Naturothérapeutes du Québec, which allows for full or partial reimbursement of my sessions, depending on your insurer.
How do I choose the best methodology for me?
When doubts arise, I recommend starting with the Comunidade Desconecte if you are not in the same location as I am, or opting for an in-person meeting if you are in the same region. These are the two best options for two reasons: first, the investment is accessible, and second, you will have immediate access to content that will be useful for you, and that is guaranteed. This way, you can "try it out" and gradually delve deeper into this enriching journey of self-discovery.
Is Family Systemic Constellation associated with any religion or occult practices?
No, not at all! Family Systemic Constellation, which I prefer to call Systemic Consciousness, is not linked to religions or occult practices. It focuses on revealing invisible dynamics that influence our lives through the various systems we belong to, such as family, professional environment, and social relationships. These dynamics can deeply impact your life choices and help you see your personal history more clearly, promoting positive changes in your behavior and relationships.
Systemic Consciousness can be seen as a "patchwork quilt," uniting various theoretical and scientific concepts. Here are some of the main elements that compose it:
-
Transgenerational Transmission and Epigenetic Mechanics: The transmission of information between generations, through language, culture, and other family practices, is a concept explored by Freud. Today, geneticists refer to this as Epigenetic Mechanics, which studies how experiences and environments can modify gene expression (Jablonka & Lamb, 2005).
-
Collective Unconscious: Carl Gustav Jung developed the idea of the collective unconscious, which is the concept that certain mental and behavioral traits are shared among the members of a culture or family group, transmitted across generations (Jung, 1964).
-
Social Fact and Collective Consciousness: Émile Durkheim analyzed how social phenomena shape collective consciousness and the behavior of individuals within a group (Durkheim, 1893).
-
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP): Created by Milton Erickson, NLP explores the relationship between language, behavior, and internal experiences (Bandler & Grinder, 1975).
-
Psychodrama: Developed by Jacob Moreno, Psychodrama uses dramatic action to explore and resolve emotional conflicts (Moreno, 1953).
-
Human Sculptures or Family Simulation: Virginia Satir used this technique to visually and interactively represent and explore family dynamics (Satir, 1983).
-
Gestalt Therapy: Fritz Perls introduced Gestalt therapy, which focuses on immediate experience and perception of the present moment (Perls, 1969).
-
Script Analysis: Eric Berne developed Script Analysis, which examines life patterns and unconscious decisions (Berne, 1961).
-
Autopoietic System: Niklas Luhmann introduced the concept of autopoietic systems to describe systems that are self-organizing and self-sustaining (Luhmann, 1984).
The Three “Natural Laws” of Systemic Consciousness
In Systemic Consciousness, there are three fundamental principles, known as the Orders of Love, that regulate human relationships:
-
Belonging: Everyone must be recognized and included in their family nucleus or system. This ensures that each member has a place and role within the group (Hellinger, 1998).
-
Hierarchy: Hierarchy or order indicates that those who came first have precedence over those who came later. This means that parents have a primary role over children (Hellinger, 1998).
-
Balance: The balance between giving and receiving is crucial to maintaining healthy relationships. There is a need for compensation in interactions to avoid significant imbalances (Hellinger, 1998).
When these laws are violated, dysfunctions, also known as "entanglements," can arise. Identifying and understanding these dysfunctions can lead to significant changes at personal, family, and professional levels.
Field of Information
How do representatives in a group dynamic manage to capture and reflect what others, whom they do not know, are experiencing? Many scientists and psychologists have investigated this capacity:
-
Dynamic Field: Kurt Lewin introduced the concept of the Dynamic Field to describe how forces within a group influence behavior (Lewin, 1936).
-
Collective Unconscious: Carl Jung discussed the concept of the Collective Unconscious, where aspects of shared experience shape individual perception (Jung, 1964).
-
Mirror Neurons: Daniel Goleman discussed Mirror Neurons in his book "Social Intelligence," highlighting how they allow empathy and understanding of others' internal states (Goleman, 2006).
-
Morphic Field: Rupert Sheldrake from Cambridge University presented the idea of the Morphic Field, suggesting that knowledge and consciousness accumulate and are shared among individuals of a species (Sheldrake, 1981)
Cymatics
Cymatics is the study of physical patterns generated by the interaction of sound waves in a medium. Simple experiments demonstrate how these waves can create visible patterns. For example, by spreading sand on a metal disc and making the disc vibrate, one can observe stationary wave patterns (Jenny, 1967).
History of Cymatics: The concept of cymatics, derived from the Greek "kyma" (wave), was popularized by Hans Jenny in his book "Kymatik." Jenny expanded on the work of Galileo Galilei and Robert Hooke, who had already noted regular patterns in vibrating bodies (Hooke, 1680).
These concepts form the basis of Systemic Consciousness, a technique that has no relation to supernatural practices, but is backed by scientific theories and research.
How can representatives in group dynamics feel what others are experiencing?
Research shows that the capacity for perception in group dynamics can be explained by the sensory transmission of a field of information. Kurt Lewin described this as the "Dynamic Field" (Lewin, 1936), Carl Jung referred to the "Collective Unconscious" (Jung, 1964), and Rupert Sheldrake spoke about the "Morphic Field" (Sheldrake, 1981). These concepts explain how information can be shared and felt among individuals without
the need for direct communication.
Experiments like those of Hans Jenny on cymatics demonstrate how sound waves can create visible physical patterns in
mediums like sand (Jenny, 1967). Cymatics, derived from the Greek "kyma" (wave), reveals how vibrations influence the
organization of matter, reflecting how invisible interactions can impact our perception and consciousness.
Does the technique protect abusers?
No, definitely not! The systemic constellation technique should not be used to protect abusers. It is important
to report any form of violence, regardless of the therapeutic context. Unfortunately, as in any profession,
there may be malpractice, but this should not undermine the integrity and benefits of the technique when applied
correctly.
Do I need to share my story with everyone during a group session?
No, you do not need to reveal your personal story to the representatives. They connect to the information preserved in genes and mirror neurons, capturing precise information without prior knowledge about the subject. The dynamics unfold through movements and sensations, with representatives and observers experiencing a resonance with the process, which helps bring insights and solutions to the presented problem.
I hope this information helps clarify your doubts and allows you to make more informed decisions about the methodology. If you have more questions, I am at your disposal!
When the technique is used with "dolls," how can I be sure that the field information is not just interpretations or something manipulated?
To answer this question, it is necessary to understand: What is it? The constellation with dolls is a therapeutic approach initially developed by Bert Hellinger and further refined by various other professionals, such as Virginia Satir, which, as already explained, also uses techniques like Jacob Moreno's Psychodrama in their practices (Moreno, 1953). During the session, the specialist uses dolls or figures to represent family members or other elements of the client's system. The goal is to visualize and understand family and emotional dynamics that may be influencing the individual's behavior and relationships.
This technique is also related to the studies of Carl Jung, who introduced the concept of the collective unconscious to describe how certain contents are shared among individuals of a culture or family group (Jung, 1964). However, the application of these concepts in the practice of systemic constellation with dolls is not directly supported by robust empirical evidence.
Another theoretical basis applied within the methodology is that of Niklas Luhmann, who explored the idea of self-organizing systems and the interaction between parts and systems (Luhmann, 1984). When choosing a professional, it is essential to seek references. Ask yourself: Do you know someone who has been attended by this professional? If you do not know anyone, can the professional provide a list of references for contact? How long has this professional been in the market? What evidence do they present regarding their integrity?
It is a fact that, unfortunately, in every professional field, there are both excellent and poor professionals. Many factors are involved, so request an initial conversation to see if there is a connection and whether the professional can answer your questions before proceeding with your choice.
Important! The practice of any therapy, emotional support, coaching, etc., should
In which areas of my life can I seek help through the Family Systemic Awareness Methodology?
Family and Relationships
Family Systemic Awareness is an approach that reveals the hidden dynamics among family members, making the family system visible as a whole. Behavioral patterns and unconscious conflicts are unveiled, allowing individuals to understand how interactions among parents, children, and other family members affect their lives. These family entanglements may include issues such as dysfunctional relationships between parents and children, emotional consequences of abortions, and dynamics following marriages or divorces.
Practical example: You may notice that in your daily life, you are always seeking approval from others without understanding why. By investigating your family relationships, you might discover that this relentless search for validation has roots in a family dynamic where you unconsciously always wanted to please your parents.
In psychotherapy, this approach is based on theories such as Attachment Theory, which suggests that our early bonds with caregivers profoundly shape our future interactions. Neuroscience complements this by showing how the neural circuits related to emotional connection develop from childhood.
Sicknes
The orders and disorders of the family system can be transmitted physically, affecting the health of family members. Patterns of behavior and repressed emotions generate stress, which over time can manifest as physical illnesses.
Practical example: Imagine that you are dealing with chronic pain with no apparent physical cause. By exploring your family history, you may find that your mother or grandmother suffered from unresolved traumatic situations, and you carry the emotional weight of those experiences. This understanding can bring relief and healing.
Psychoneuroimmunology supports this view, showing how stress and repressed emotions affect the immune system, predisposing us to diseases. Healing begins by recognizing and releasing these patterns.
Business and Management
The application of Family Systemic Awareness also extends to the business world. Understanding how "systemic orders" affect interactions within organizations, companies, and institutions allows leaders, entrepreneurs, and consultants to identify hidden dynamics that impact success.
Practical example: In a work environment, you might notice that there are always conflicts or difficulties in advancing projects. By exploring the organizational structure through systemic awareness, you may discover that these problems stem from patterns of disrespect towards leadership or a lack of cooperation inherited from previous cycles in the company.
Psychodynamic theories suggest that conflicts within organizations often reflect the personal conflicts of their members, and Social Neuroscience indicates how the work environment affects stress and cooperation levels.
Success in Life and Career
Personal fulfillment in relationships and careers follows the same laws of balance and imbalance observed in family dynamics. By understanding and working with these systemic orders, we can break patterns of failure and unhappiness, bringing success and fulfillment.
Practical example: If you constantly face difficulties in your career, such as missing opportunities or procrastination, it may reflect a family dynamic where success was viewed as something negative or threatening. Understanding this origin enables transformation.
Positive Psychology theories show how inherited beliefs and attitudes influence self-esteem and the ability to achieve goals. Neuroscience reinforces that changing these patterns creates new neural connections, favoring more productive and self-confident behaviors.
Money and Prosperity
Our relationship with money is also deeply connected to family dynamics. Money often reflects the emotions and beliefs we inherit from our family system. Issues of scarcity, financial difficulties, or fear of prosperity may be rooted in traumas or family disorders.
Practical example: If you constantly find yourself in situations where money seems to "slip through your fingers," this may reflect a family pattern of self-sabotage or unconscious guilt regarding financial success.
Economic Psychology and Neuroscience explain that our relationship with money is closely linked to our brain’s reward system and the beliefs formed in childhood.
How does reimbursement work?
For the Disconnect Community, reimbursement follows the rules of Hotmart. However, for all other services, there is no possibility of reimbursement. Therefore, it is extremely important to align all details of any service modality in advance to avoid misunderstandings for both parties.
I hope to see you soon.
