Module: Family Soul – Belonging, Orders of Love, Giving and Receiving
Objective:
This milestone exercise will guide you in deeply integrating the lessons of Belonging, Orders of Love, and Giving and Receiving into your practice and daily life. It is designed to help you embody these concepts in both personal and professional settings, and assess your progress.
Part 1: Belonging – Honoring Your Place in the Family System
The concept of Belonging is central to understanding our place in the family system. True belonging arises when we acknowledge the roles of our ancestors and our rightful position within the family constellation.
Exercise: Reflect on your place in your family system.
Action Step: Spend 10 minutes in quiet reflection, considering any unconscious patterns or emotions that may arise when you think about your family.
Record any insights.
The Orders of Love show how love flows within a system, and understanding them helps restore balance and healing. This principle explains that we must honor the hierarchy and natural flow of love in our family system.
Exercise: Reflect on the Orders of Love within your family.
List the key members of your immediate family (parents, siblings, grandparents, etc.).
Action Step: Choose one person who has been excluded or overlooked and write a note of gratitude or acknowledgement to them. You may choose to keep this note private, or share it with them in person or in spirit.
The principles of Giving and Receiving are vital to maintaining balance in any system. When one is blocked or out of harmony, the system becomes unbalanced, leading to dysfunction and disconnection.
Exercise: Reflect on your patterns of Giving and Receiving in your personal and professional life.
Action Step: For one week, focus on creating a conscious balance of giving and receiving. Track your experiences and write down any observations.
Now that you’ve completed exercises on Belonging, Orders of Love, and Giving and Receiving, it’s time to assess how these teachings have influenced your work as a coach or healer.
