Katarina ‘Kato’ Wittich – Family Constellations Facilitator
Katarina Wittich, known as ‘Kato’, is a certified Rosen Practitioner, Yuen Practitioner and facilitator for the group transformational modality called Family Constellations. Constellations are based on the premise that we all unconsciously inherit family patterns that may have been needed for survival of the family in the past, but now block us as individuals from living the fullest and richest lives that we can. In Constellations, group members serve as “resonators” to help another group member access their family patterns so that they can be acknowledged and understood and no longer need to be repeated. The process of “resonance” is mysterious and very beautiful, as total strangers who know nothing about the subject, are able to accurately perceive and mirror feelings and behaviors of the subject’s family members and ancestors. Family Constellations founder Bert Hellinger called the source of this information the “knowing field” and it can be easily accessed by any participant who chooses to empty themselves and see what comes through them. Constellations is a work of unconditional love, of perceiving all beings as part of a greater whole, without judgment or the need to repress or hide any aspects of our family systems that have previously been seen as unacceptable or taboo. In acknowledging what is, we no longer need to resist, and all that vitality and energy becomes available for living the life we want.
