Connecting with Your Ancestors

Discover the strength and gifts that flow to you through your ancestors.

We carry not only the life of our ancestors within us, but also their strength, wisdom, and gifts. When we consciously connect with the healthy and supportive ancestors in our lineage, we often experience greater peace, clarity, and vitality.

In this three-day workshop series, you will learn how to build a healthy connection with your ancestors, receive support from your ancestral line, and ask for healing where it is still needed.

A series of three workshops.
Facilitator: Susanne Hazen, author Leerboek Familieopstellingen

About the Course

Each of us is part of something larger. The lives, experiences, qualities, and challenges of those who came before us continue to influence our own lives.

When we consciously connect with the nourishing and life-giving aspects of our ancestry, we often experience greater inner peace, clarity, and resilience. As we connect with healthy and healed ancestors, we remember that we are supported by a greater stream of life.

However, when we are unconsciously connected to ancestors who are still suffering, we may carry aspects of their unresolved pain.

In this workshop series, you will learn how to safely connect with healthy, supportive ancestors—and how to ask for healing for those who still need it.

Healing What Has Been Carried for Generations

Every family history contains stories of love, joy, and connection. At the same time, there may be experiences of loss, trauma, or hardship that were never fully seen, acknowledged, or processed. Such experiences can continue to affect future generations.

Many spiritual and systemic traditions hold the idea that some ancestors have not yet come fully to rest after their death.
For this reason, many cultures maintain traditions of prayers and rituals intended to bring healing to ancestors, enabling them to join those who have already found peace. When ancestors are in a healed state, they no longer exert a weakening influence on their descendants.

During this workshop series you will:

✓ Learn to connect with supportive and healed ancestors

✓ Discover the qualities, talents, and gifts available through your family line

✓ Explore what in your ancestral lineage wishes to be seen, acknowledged, and healed

✓ Learn rituals and practices that deepen your connection with your ancestors

✓ Experience greater grounding, vitality, and support from your lineage

Throughout the series, we focus on one ancestral line.

When ancestors are in a healed state, they no longer have a weakening effect on their descendants. In this sense, supporting peace and rest for the dead can help make life easier for the living.

We work with systemic rituals, systemic constellations, movement, and simple forms of dance. No dance experience is required. The body is an important instrument in this work. Through the body, we can experience what words sometimes cannot reach.
