As many people know, or experienced family constellations, systemic work is the basic of it. Without constellations it is offering a intervention field that is under the surface of behavior.
Some may problems canโ€™t be solved with logic alone. At Source, we look ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐˜†๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€. Through systemic observations, specific use of our senses, and case studies, youโ€™ll see whatโ€™s really at playโ€”hidden patterns, misalignments, and unspoken dynamics that shape results.

Hereโ€™s how it works in practice:
๐Ÿ”น A company losing money discovers the issue wasnโ€™t strategy but a misalignment in order. Office staff were made more important than production workersโ€”the ones actually making the product. Intervention? At lunch, production staff goes first, and the office team waits. Efficiency improves, and losses stop.
๐— ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ค๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป: Who or what has been made too important?
๐Ÿ”น A leadership team stuck in endless discussions realizes they are unconsciously waiting for a former CEOโ€™s approvalโ€”someone who left years ago. Intervention? A symbolic goodbye to the past leader to restore clarity and decision-making power.
๐— ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ค๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป: Where does the permission to solve this issue need to come from?
Source covers systemic work as initiated by Bert Hellinger, put into action through case studies, universal questions and various practice rounds.
Designed and delivered by Marko Vlaming and Demian Burgenik, 9th Source will happen from 25th until the 30th October 2026.

From 9โ€“15 May, the second Working Lab of the Upside Down project - ๐‡๐š๐ญ๐ฌ ๐Ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ - took place in Latvia, hosted by Biedrฤซba re:view.

For one week, youth workers from different realities came together to slow down, exchange different practices, and reflect on sustainability in youth work - both for themselves and for the communities they are part of.

The program in a nutshell:
๐ŸŽฉ exploring self-regulation through movement and body-based practices
๐ŸŽฉ reflecting on self-leadership and professional motivation
๐ŸŽฉ exchanging challenges, practices, and stories from everyday work
๐ŸŽฉ using nature, silence, and reflection as spaces for integration

Learning also happened in the small moments in between: shared meals, conversations around the table, laughter, quiet walks and evenings in nature. โœจ

Co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ

What if we started getting to know Nature as a character, instead of perceiving it as an object?
Would we call Nature a friend, a caretaker, maybe even Mother Nature?
What role does it play in our lives?

๐ŸŒฟ Natureโ€™s Legacy was a youth exchange that took place from 15โ€“26 July 2025, where we explored exactly these questions.

For 12 unforgettable days, we allowed ourselves to be embraced by Nature and to build a heartfelt connection with the environment around us. By spending meaningful time outdoors, we opened new forms of dialogue with the living world.

โœจ During this journey, we:
โ€ข Gained hands-on experience and practical tools to care for the environment
โ€ข Became researchers, working alongside farmers, gardeners, and environmental educators in Natura 2000 areas around Ommen
โ€ข Connected deeply with Nature through outdoor activities, play, and reflection in diverse settings
โ€ข Created and shared a common living space
โ€ข Co-created workshops, activities, and games
โ€ข Embarked on a 6-day hiking and camping adventure across the Netherlands
โ€ข Exchanged cultures, stories, and perspectives within an international group

Most importantly, we built genuine, heartfelt connections with Nature and with each other ๐Ÿ’š

Beyond 2026 will take place from 26-30 june 2026.

As there is a lot of intrest in the beyond, have a new call on beyond, there are 20 places there are 13 still open.

In this 5-day retreat, weโ€™ll use constellations as a powerful tool to explore and gain clarity on dynamics in ๐—ณ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—น๐˜†, ๐—ฏ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€, ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐˜€.
Throughout the program, youโ€™re invited to bring topics that matter most to you.
Systemic work reveals subconscious patterns, offering ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ, ๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ฒ.Constellations and existential coaching go beyond the individual, working on the deep, interconnected level of systems.
โœจ How do constellations work, shortly:
๐—ฆ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐˜๐—ฒ๐—น๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป: you can choose participants as "representatives." The distance and position to one another provide information about the relationships and tensions within the situation at place.
๐—ข๐—ฏ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐˜†๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐˜€: representatives can share what they sense and observe. Often, this reveals unconscious patterns, such as loyalty or family entanglements, that might influence the current reality.
๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—น๐˜๐˜€: insights are often immediately tangible, yet the effects of a constellation can continue to unfold over time.
๐Ÿ“ When is a constellation supportive?
โ€” Unexplained emotional blockages.
โ€” Relational issues (with a partner, parents, children).
โ€” Health complaints with a possible psychosomatic origin.
โ€” ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ป๐˜€ in work or projects.
โ€” Processing grief or trauma that may have systemic roots.
Beyond 2026 will take place from march 18-22,
