Training in 2026

Placebos - tons of research - clearly the neurology of the individual affects physiology too - and sometimes a sugar pill is justas affective as a medicinal drug. The guy who was depressed - signed up for a drugs trial, got depressed again - rushed to hospital in a complete collapse - only to find he had zero drugs in his system - he was in the control group! On being told he was right as rain in 15 minutes. Nocebos - limiting beliefs are just as powerful, but can be dangerous - look a voodoo curse deaths!!

Synaesthesia is where emotions and inputs get muddled - so hearing the colour green or tasting the sound of a bell is one aspect, but it can also lead to the indvidual feeling sad when someone who is sad walks into the room. How do we manage this in the context of a constellation? Listening to this podcast, and you'll hear my take on this!

If you find yourself getting loved for your illness or disease - this is for you! Redfine what is going on, Zero Budget what it is you need in your life right now. Its not a cure, but it will be a big relief

After a number of wonderful pieces of work in the summer so far, I thought I'd share what can go into, and what can come out of a Family Constellation

Musings on brighton beach as I prepare for the Weekend Workshop in Brighton tomorrow and Sunday

If someone takes their own life in a family, it can have massive long term consquences within (and without) the family system. Teenage children may feel responsible, or fell divided loyalties, blame or shame. A constellation will uncover the hidden dynamics and demonstrate powerfully that the consequences only belong where they should be - not with a loving child sibling or partner, who may feel they "deserve" to carry that burden even though it is not theirs to carry. This episode my seem a bit harsh if this is close to home, but I urge you to persevere!!

All of us have old trauma stuck in our systems smewhere. The question is what can we do about it? and how can we find out what it is. Well ther brain has a fantastic set of tools to distance us from immediate trauma experience, and bury it. And the Family Constellation is a fantatsic set of tools to elicit that information and reference where in your family system that it belongs. As soon as you see where it belongs you no longer have access to the feeling of that trauma, only the knowledge that it exists!

The Rafe Nauen Academy is hosting another Family Constellation Therapy training on 7th/8th Febraury 2026 and this episode is all about whats new! If you expect to be a bit tired, because we are packing in quite a lot of information to help you get quickly to the nub of any issues your clients friends or family have. The training is accredited and certificated and I am assured that insurance companies are happy to add in the certificate to your current Public Liability insurance I offer stage payments if you need that and It will be a fun weekend too.
