      Praise For The Constellation Approach

      “The Constellation Approach: Finding Peace Through Your Family Lineage combines ancient wisdom traditions with contemporary family systems theory, and describes a radical reciprocal process of coming to wholeness . . . This guide book serves as a sacred blue print for coming to peace with our familial and ancestral legacies. [It’s] an accessible and heart-felt explication of . . . the liberating experiential work done in the Constellation Approach.”

       Judy Tsafrir, MD Adult and Child Psychiatrist and Psychoanalyst Harvard Medical School

      “The Constellation Approach is a jewel in the crown of Family Systems Constellations. This book is an excellent introduction to Family Constellations, but it far surpasses that purpose . . . [The Fausts’] work offers a spiritual practice, one which unfolds and strengthens with precision as it progresses. A work book, an engaging text, a meditation and a path of empowerment, this book is a treasure not only for facilitators of Family Constellations but all helping professionals.”

       Francesca Mason Boring, Family Constellation Facilitator Author of Connecting to our Ancestral Past—Healing through Family Constellations, Ceremony and Ritual

      “To say that this type of engagement with the Family Energy Field is lifesaving is almost a rude understatement—I have never witnessed and personally experienced the healing power of anything coming close to this—not in Western Medicine or other forms of complementary medicine . . . To have a book describing the process and making it accessible to anyone interested in healing for themselves and others is a huge gift!”

       Sabine R. O’Laughlin, MD

      “The Constellation Approach offers great hope and possibility for our way of being with each other in the world. Jamy and Peter Faust have configured a path of healing that is profoundly relevant . . . Their work is simple yet complex, deep and far reaching, ancient, timeless and emergently imperative for healing and living in true community with all life. Beautiful and brilliant—a work that will influence many fields for years to come.”

       Sherry Pae Dean of Advanced Studies, Barbara Brennan School of Healing

      “Not just a book about theory but rather a practical guidebook that clearly guides the reader through a process of connecting to self, soul, and spirit. What emerges is a unique and powerful contribution to alleviate human suffering. The Constellation Approach . . . offers authentic assistance to make peace with the past, freeing us to reside in the present and generate a new peaceful future . . . I highly recommend [this book] to any fellow travelers on the path and as a very useful template for clinicians.”

       Ian Macnaughton, Ph.D. Past President, British Columbia Association of Clinical Counselling Author of Embodying the Mind & Minding the Body and Body, Breath, & Consciousness

      “The Constellation Approach by Jamy and Peter Faust is a must read for anyone interested in Family Constellations from a spiritual perspective . . . It will certainly be required reading for all my future facilitator trainings.”

       Susan D. Ulfelder Founder of Hellinger Institute of DC

      “Jamy and Peter Faust have spent much of their lives exploring the vast landscape of healing modalities. Their study has taken them to many teachers, many ways. This book marks a moment of confluence for them as they introduce the Constellation Approach, a unique synthesis of and expansion upon the work of Bert Hellinger’s Family Constellations and other perspectives. Their understanding is . . . both grounded and fresh.”

       Suzi Tucker Family Constellations Facilitator/Presenter Author of Gather Enough Fireflies

      “The family is mankind’s original social construct. It forms us, shapes us, and for better or worse, affects us throughout our entire life . . . “Multigenerational family therapy” has become a powerful new method for resolving our personal conflicts, and the Fausts’ describe it beautifully in this fascinating new study that offers positive change for all of us.”

       Lynn A. Robinson Author of Divine Intuition: Your Inner Guide to Purpose, Peace and Prosperity

      “The Constellation Approach: Finding Peace through Your Family Lineage is a welcome and powerful contribution to the field of Family Constellations . . . Participation in The Constellation Approach Immersion Program with Jamy and Peter has expanded my compassion and appreciation for others, and brought me ease and a feeling of belonging. Their work has led me to a deeper sense of rootedness and reclaimed connection with my ancestral lineage.”
