Constellations – The Witness/Rep

The Representative’s experience – Jo

Jo is studying in England, and comes from Asia.  I have tried to keep the essence of her words and changed a few for ease of reading.  

People often experience new insights, different perspectives and a flow of emotions – I was blown away by all the changes Jo experienced on her first ever Constellation Workshop!


Jo says: “I’m very glad to share my magical shifts after the Constellation Weekend Workshop.  

A friend of mine invited me to come.  I had no previous experience of this work and came to Witness and perhaps to be a Representative.

Firstly, I’d like to talk about the physical shifts which changed after the weekend.  

A few years ago, I had a problem with my heart, with insufficient blood supply, after minor surgery I am completely recovered.  I mention this as, after the Constellation weekend I felt loads of blood smoothly flowing into my heart when I got home, and I could clearly feel the fullness and weight of my chest – in a good way.

I now know I can resource my energy from a wider range of sources. 

My inner strength, has made my breath easier than ever.  Previously I considered breath as something I had to do to sustain my life which felt like a burden to carry around. Now breath is more of what naturally happens because of my existence, it’s no longer a pressure on me. I felt full and complete, and grateful for what I have.

As for mental shifts, I have loads to speak about.  

I believe that every small physical change is associated with mental change.

The part about my heart blood, I consider the changes as a result of Love. 

During the constellation, I Represented and ‘become’ a mother, a grandmother, a great grandmother in a family.  This means I have experienced what it’s like to be responsible for another person, to genuinely care for another, to love a person no matter what they have become, to connect someone’s pain to my own behaviors. 

Suddenly, I realize how much love I have received from my parents and grandparents.  

Throughout my whole life, I was expecting and asking too much from my family.  I was being critical and perfectionist. 

Now I feel grateful.  I receive the love of my parents and grandparents.  I got enough.

With my new inner strength, I have gained the courage to express myself. 

My parents are not good listeners most of the time, they tend to insist on their own beliefs while ignoring mine, denying what I think and feel. The Constellation with Lucy allowed me to feel safe, to share my true feelings, the way that I was observed, listened to, and respected by the other people in the room made me feel that I am important and valuable, that there is a reason I exist.

These values are basically what drive people to stay alive!

Also, I managed to lose a lot of self-doubt when I am not being perfect, when I was not chosen at some important time, when I was hurt by others.  I have learned to be stable in my body, my natural being.

Another valuable acquisition is the consolidation of my belief that everyone is having a difficult life. 

To know what others are going through roused my empathy for people.  I have been gifted a broader mind, to tolerate and understand another’s situation instead of simply blaming him/her for what they do. 

I can easily be happy bearing that thought in mind, because no one is doing anything wrong! 

This belief also shifts my focus from worrying about what people think of me to “What I can do to make people feel better?”

It turns out my small favors can make me and others happy at the same time!

I am really grateful that my friend brought me to the Constellation workshop with Lucy, it has positively transformed me. 

It is important to tell people – its ok to learn to feel. Mostly others tell us what to think. 

Through feeling all these feelings and having all these new experiences, I have changed so much already.  The Constellation work is a precious gift to me, none of these transformations could happened without your work.  

Thank you Lucy for what you do!”

What My Clients Say

“No pain in the night, no pain when I got up, no pain when I went for a run and no pain now! It’s much more than I expected, thank you! "

Steve

"It is as though I have been gifted an entirely new lens through which to view human behaviour, and it is a lens of compassion and empathy like no other. Due to this, I have been able to come to terms with the way my family operates, which has proven to be a great relief. I would definitely recommend working with Lucy. She held such a safe space for me and my vulnerability with great compassion and authenticity."

Elena

"Using these techniques has helped me reduce the day-to-day tension I’ve developed over a lifetime of anxious habits and hypersensitivity. It’s been amazing to re-learn how my body works, and how to swap out the survival mechanisms that got me so far, for habits more in keeping with how my body is happier to work."

Alex Booer

“I’ve been doing the Alexander Technique with Lucy over the past few months and my posture has improved enormously. I have a greater awareness of how my body functions and can recognise the signs of when I’m falling into bad habits."

Paul Tolton, Actor

"I feel present. Nice to feel here, not racing ahead. I have a more measured, calm approach. I’m less reactive and am learning to look after myself and choose my responses.”

Rosie

"I had a traumatic accident a few years ago. After you ‘wriggled’ my head it felt weird – and really good. I could walk evenly for the first time in years!! I’m making friends with my body.”

Zoe, Singer

"I have been happily surprised and have learned a lot about how my muscles and spine behave when I let them. I rapidly realised that AT is not in the least pseudoscience, rather it teaches one to be aware of how the body is holding itself."

Julian Davis, Retired Professor of Medicine & Pianist

"I've just had two enjoyable and useful sessions with Lucy on Zoom. I had been doubtful about how it would work but I was pleased with how it went. Of course, nothing is as good as face-to-face but we are where we are and this was great and has helped me to progress as I had hoped. Thank you. Looking forward to the next ones!"

Bev

"Lucy's sessions are amazing. Her unique blend of skills helped me have good posture without effort. Before this, I had seen many physiotherapists and osteopaths, but the pain kept coming back within a few weeks. Even after my first session with Lucy, the difference was so clear that my friends commented on it. After several months, the effects are being maintained with her support."
