welcome

Welcome to the English pages of the Dutch Bert Hellinger Institute.

We apologise that most of our website is in, maybe for you in unreadable, and if you would hear it even more strange sounding, Dutch. That is because the mother language of most of the participants on workshops and training programs are Dutch.

In the last couple of years Bibi and I were more and more often invited for workshops, lectures and trainings in other countries. Mostly we speak English, sometimes German or with some help French. We have a good experience to work together with interpreters, for example in Croatia and Russia. It's wonderful to find with an interpreter a same rhythm of speech, to slow down to a rhythm that reaches the heart and soul of all present. It's nice to see and hear participants speak in their mothers tongue and be open for their bodily expressions, not spoiled yet by any interpretation of the words, and then to hear a few seconds later the meaning of the words.

The purpose of these English pages is to stay connected with friends, colleagues and people who are interested from over the world. We will basically focus in these English pages on activities we organise or have organised in a foreign language or foreign country and some articles and links to other sites. Also we will briefly introduce to you the Dutch Bert Hellinger Institute and the Dutch development of constellation work.

You will find them via the navigation bar at your left.

A warm welcome in the cyber-space of the Netherlands
