I credit your skill, perseverance and steady nature along with the extraordinary nature of this work, with moving one more soul along the path towards reclaiming one’s identity.

Voice America Interview with Hella
I am thrilled to announce that I will be talking to Sadhu Khalsa on Wednesday, February 7th, 2018 about Systemic Family Constellation Work for his Total Health Recovery Show on Voice America. You can join us live at 2pm MST.
We’ll talk about…
Systemic Family Constellations respond to our souls longing to live in the wholeness of our ancestral line. The family soul is a highly sensitive energetic field in which all who belong to a family are connected in love, including those who are forgotten or not honored, like those who were mentally ill, or miscarried, or who died prematurely or violently. Only when all of these are looked at and honored, and receive their respected place in the family system, the soul will heal and be a strong foundation for our lives to be healthy and in peace and joy. Until the forgotten ones are seen again, we are entangled in their fate and carry their burdens-in the form of physical illness or addictions, depression, eating disorders, panic attacks, or conflicts in our personal or professional relationships, and more.
You can also find Sadhu’s podcast on iTunes.
Special Event: Study Group
STUDY GROUP November – December 2017, Santa Fe
This is a special event that Hella offers to newcomers to the Systemic Family Constellation Work. The 6 evenings are structured to give you an in depth introduction to the principles and laws of Constellation Work. This profound healing work has proven its strong impact in many situations like dysfunctional relationships, disease and suffering. In only two decades it found its way to many countries around the globe, helping war torn countries like Russia or Chile, and most of all Germany, where the 3rd Generation after World War II is carrying the trauma of the war with phobia attacks and many diseases. Very often perpetrator and victims suffer the same symptoms
and are able to find reconciliation in the healing Ancestral Field of the Constellation. Each Constellation is an artfully celebrated ritual which holds the presence of the ancestors, offering to them the love that heals.
- Here is what you will learn:
- to work with the Phenomenological Approach
- to hold the energy of the representation
- to be in the truth of the field
- to follow the orders of Love
- to find the one who has lost his/her right to belong
- to recognize ancestral entanglements with generations that came before
- to allow the healing words to come through you
- to accept the parents as described in “The Prayer in the morning of Life”
- you will develop and understand the systemic view on:
Marriage and divorce, diseases (ex: Anorexia and Bulimia), abortion, perpetrator and victim, inability to find the right partner, right job, right home, money issues, trauma and drug abuse, depression, Organizational Constellations, etc. - we will brainstorm how these new insights can grow into new tools for your established
professional work - It is highly recommended to come to the Saturday November 11 th and December 7 th
Sacred Circle of the Ancestors.
I hope our group will grow to 8, which is the limited number. 8 is a good number to do Constellations.
I am thinking of 6 meetings: for 6 weeks one time each week. Starting soon.
Tuesdays or Thursdays are the days on which I am free.
The time should be 6pm to 8:30pm. (Day and time can be discussed with the group members.)
It is highly recommended that participants also come for the November 11th and the December 9th Sacred Circles. Here you may experience Hella’s group facilitation and receive the healing that unfolds in the Sacred Circle of the Ancestors.
The cost of the Study Group is $400 (+tax), due by the first session. A payment plan can be worked out with Hella.
This Study Group will prepare you for later facilitator training if you find it aligns with your own heart’s calling.
Please contact Hella with further questions or to express your interest.

Special Event: Southwest Costellation Symposium
Coming Together – Creating Community
Our 1st Southwest Constellation Symposium on Dec 6/7, 2014 in Santa Fe, New Mexico will focus on coming together and creating a strong constellation community in the Southwest. This symposium will celebrate our local communities in Santa Fe, Albuquerque and beyond, by meeting in the “Knowing Field”, sharing our knowledge and learning from each other. Our program invites facilitators, students and everybody who is drawn to constellation work. Our goal is to empower each other for more collective and personal healing and professional growth. We honor Bert Hellinger as the one who initiated constellation work in Germany and we embrace his students who passed on the knowledge and gave facilitators all over the world the opportunity to create their own unique approach to constellation work. Our intention with this symposium is to come together as a greater community, to share our passion for constellation work and honor our different styles. We all belong and have our place in the “Knowing Field”.
- • Meet in person
- • Exchange ideas, knowledge and expertise
- • Showcase our work
- • Experience different facilitators doing constellations
- • Be in the “Knowing Field” with others
- • Supervision for your work

PRESENTERS
Bill Mannle, LMFT
Presentation – Saturday: “Movement of the Soul, a Personal Reflection“
Presentation – Sunday: “Systemic Supervision: Moving through Impasse and Discovering Resources“
Description: Finding your way in the field can be difficult. Often a therapist will become immobilized, feel frustrated, alone, and set drift without a compass. This can be the result of hidden loyalties in the therapist’s family system, past trauma or fear, being activated by the client’s system. Supervision is an experiential approach that explores reciprocal influences between the therapist, the client, the representatives (group work) and the field. As practiced in Constellation work, supervision invokes inquiry that compels the therapist toward a deep introspection, while at the same time providing a safe space to develop heart and soul presence. Using Constellations as the primary method of inquiry, we will identify personal blocks, move with resistance, re-connect to our creativity, and find resources that help us remain open and present to our clients.

Barbara J. Eggenberger, MFT
Presentation: “Not Knowing, The Doorway to Everything“
Description: Not Knowing is a heightened sense of perception that escapes the boundaries of time and space and experience. It is the difference between regurgitated information and information that is fresh, brand new and exquisitely meaningful. Like ordinary knowing, not knowing is a state that can be learned and cultivated within the individual. I will share my own journey from Knowing to Not Knowing and provide some relevant experiences to support others along that path.
Bio: Barbara hails from California and Oregon where she has been a licensed Marriage Family Therapist for quite some time. In 2003 she was introduced to Constellation Work and after five years of seriously studying, representing, experimenting and training, she began facilitating in 2008. She has had a successful constellation circle in Sacramento, CA for the last five years and is well known and recommended for her powerful private constellations. In the last three years she has been facilitating psychotherapy groups that use constellation work as a tool of integration and has been leading Money Workshop Intensives. In the future she looks forward to adding intensives for health, sexuality and self empowerment. Her focus in all of her work is intended towards healing our relationship with self; for out of that relationship, all else follows.

Andrew Fearnside, MA, LMHC
Presentation: “Honoring the Mountain, Creative Practice in the Desert from a Symbolic Systemic Perspective”
Description: A tension between individuality and community vibrates in every human life and enterprise. Here in the Southwest, this archetypal reality manifests in our relationship to the high desert, the land of the mountains at whose feet we build our lives. Can we live the psychological and spiritual values of our roots, and honor the desert? What does the desert require of us? How much can we allow ourselves to imbibe the values of the land we live in, and how much of our native values must we hold fast within us? What are we native to? Artist Andrew Fearnside will share aspects of his psychospiritual creative practice in exploring these questions.
Bio: Andrew Fearnside grew up in the temperate hill country of suburban Massachusetts, and developed and affinity for the land at a young age. He completed two Bachelors degrees, in literature and fine art, at Tufts University and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. Moving to Albuquerque in 2001, Mr. Fearnside completed a Master’s Degree in Counseling at Southwestern College in 2010, focusing on grief, loss and trauma, and began clinical practice at the UNM Cancer Center that year.

at The 2013 US Systemic Constellation Conference
Workshop: Sitting in the Sacred Circle of the Knowing Field
“Ritual has been one of the most practical and efficient ways to stimulate the safe healing required by both the individual and the community.” Malidoma Some’
Hella Neumann seeks to encourage the creation of new rituals , appropriate to our time, enhancing the healing power of Family Constellation Work. This workshop will be taught within the sacred space of a ritual. The steps of a Constellation are experienced as movements in the all-embracing sacred field of all that is. In this high energy field we meet the presence of the Ancestors and it comes to light what needs to be seen. Using small groups we will experience how to hold the Sacred Field and how it feels when we drop back into the ordinary world. This workshop combines meditations, hands-on experiences, and a fine-tuned awareness of the Sacred Field. Hella will facilitate a Constellation illustrating the use of ritual in our work.
