# Event Details - **Event Name**: Healing Family Patterns - Working with Human Systems - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 13 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am – Fri, 03 Jul, 2026 at 10:00 am (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Monday 13th April, Bristol. Systemic Constellation Workshop with Gaye DonaldsonAbout this EventThis is an experiential workshop in which everyone will participate, in some way, in every constellation. The day will include a guided meditation, discussion, and teaching, as well as about 5 or 6 constellations. Those who feel ready to do a piece of work will be invited to raise their hand. At lunchtime we will see how many people still wish to do their own constellation and if there are more than we have times for then names will be put into a hat and ‘issue holders’ selected randomly. So, please be clear that the opportunity to present your own issue is not guaranteed.However, this process is deeply moving and everyone present will, in one way or another, have a powerful and illuminating experience. Whether you have brought the issue, participated as a representative, or held the space for the work in the outer circle. Constellation Work offers profound insight and new understanding for everyone in the group. We will of course reflect on each piece of work and our learning together.This ‘Field-based’ approach to selecting the issue holders is the original way of holding a workshop. Later, in the late 1990s, it became fashionable to monetarise the issue holder place, which created a two-tier fee structure, and hierarchical levels of involvement. I have worked with both structures but have returned to the original way of working now because I prefer it when we meet as equals and trust the Field to provide what we, as a group, collectively need. In this way we respect the spirit of the work, even though some individuals may feel disappointed not to have been selected.In my 30 years of involvement with Constellation Work, the two most impactful and personally life-changing constellations that I have done were both when I was a representative, not the issue holder. I will speak more about this at the workshop.Joining DetailsSubud hall can be found just off the A4176 road adjacent to the high street. Located in a very narrow street.

These issues may arise from difficulties with family, relationships, health issues, career, or existential and spiritual difficulties. At the workshop we will explore how key events and traumas in our lives (which often include events from previous generations) influence us and may even have led to ‘entanglements’ or ‘hidden loyalties’ that unconsciously affect us in our life today.What is a constellation?A constellation begins with a conversation in which the ‘issue holder’ describes a difficulty or issue is affecting their life. The issue holder is then asked to select group members to ‘represent’ elements of the system under consideration. Aspects represented are typically known individuals, but may also include groups, organisations, countries, or abstract concepts.These ‘representatives’ are asked to stand in a configuration called a Constellation which is form of ‘living map’ of the system under consideration. The facilitator gathers information that both contributes to a fuller understanding of the present difficulty, and also supports movements towards resolution. By creating a constellation of an issue we can begin to see what is stuck or blocking the solution that brings peace, and new possibilities for the whole system emerge.The ‘system’ in question may of course be our family system, our relationships, our working environment, or our own health and wellbeing. The constellation approach can be used to explore any issue. There will be space to look at 5 or 6 issues during the day. As a result, please note that the opportunity to present your own issue is not guaranteed during the day.Constellation work can be profound and deeply affecting. Please come prepared to participate in a spirit of openness and generosity.If you would like further information about the constellation process, please go to www.kindredconstellations.com. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/clifton/healing-family-patterns-working-with-human-systems/100001967543362161 - **Event Categories**: workshops, health-wellness, art, theatre, entertainment, meditation, mental-health - **Slot details of has slots**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fhealing-family-patterns-working-with-human-systems-tickets-1967543362161 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 135, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Clifton - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Bristol Subud Hall - **lat**: 51.47015829999999 - **long**: -2.616136599999999 - **full address**: Bristol Subud Hall, 29 Wesley Place, Clifton, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Gaye Donaldson (https://allevents.in/org/gaye-donaldson/23049478) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/d1155e99c6cd9adfc32b18cbca6c3803d683836e780d160dc0e6d326bd720f02-rimg-w1200-h900-dc45352c-gmir.jpg?v=1766735957 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/37ec2dfbab1394076af6db09bc80e5ef8df8c172b707053bd5818ae17a925400-rimg-w400-h400-dc45352c-gmir.jpg?v=1766735956 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Mon, 13 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am (+01:00) - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Bristol Subud Hall, 29 Wesley Place, Clifton, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 135 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Gaye Donaldson - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops, health-wellness, art, theatre, entertainment, meditation, mental-health - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Healing Family Patterns - Working with Human Systems ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Healing Family Patterns - Working with Human Systems", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/d1155e99c6cd9adfc32b18cbca6c3803d683836e780d160dc0e6d326bd720f02-rimg-w1200-h900-dc45352c-gmir.jpg?v=1766735957", "startDate": "2026-04-13T10:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2026-07-03T10:00:00+01:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/clifton/healing-family-patterns-working-with-human-systems/100001967543362161", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Bristol Subud Hall", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "29 Wesley Place", "postalCode": "BS8 2YD", "addressLocality": "Clifton", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.47015829999999", "longitude": "-2.616136599999999" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Monday 13th April, Bristol.
