Tent 1: Alida Moncado - Ancestral Healing - In this class, Alida will share some exercises and dynamics connected to inherited trauma that might be causing blockages related to health, career, abundance, and relationships. Bert Hellinger, the founder of this work, who studied and treated families for more than 50 years, observed that many of us unconsciously "take on" destructive familial patterns of anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, aloneness, alcoholism, and even illness as a way of "belonging" in our families. Bonded by deep love, a child will often sacrifice his own best interests in a vain attempt to ease the suffering of a parent or other family member. The class will address topics such as the transformation of limiting beliefs, the healing of ancestral dynamics, the release of burdens, and inherited guilt. You will learn to align your conscious and unconscious minds with abundance.
