Mind & Heart
There are lots of conversations about the mind to be our server, not our ruler. In other words is that we are being controlled by our minds too much. And during meditation many people put lots of effort to calm down the mind. In Family Constellations approach there is nothing to suppress or reject, but acknowledge and integrate instead. Your mind is a part of you.
While meditating myself and working with other people I have noticed that the people, who have their hearts closed, they are the most influenced by their minds. And this is how I see it now: you need both, your heart and your mind to survive. If you close your heart, all you have left, is your mind. And your mind gets overloaded, offering its best to save you. Thanks to the mind for all the efforts. Now, help it, and open up your heart.
Why would people close their hearts? There are many reasons and one of the most common ones and the deapest ones is a so called interrupted movement towards the mother. More about it on the Family Constellations workshops:
