Ancestral Soul

Ancestral Soul

OCTOBER 5 TO NOVEMBER 9

We will journey through systemic and transpersonal pathways that, at each step, invite us to follow the subtle yet potent guide of soul.

Systemic therapy and transpersonal psychology in dialogue with an ancestral approach reveal that the quest for what’s essential in our lives is a foundational requirement for anyone in search of health and fulfillment.

Exploring what’s essential in our lives through the lens of an expanded psychology invites a movement toward healing. For this encounter with the soul to take place, it is necessary to equip ourselves with the tools and allies that allow us to craft a better relationship with ourselves and our families.

The ancestral soul course enlivens a genuine potential for greater awareness, reconciliation, and acceptance in our lives, so we can honor our roots and extend our wings.


We will explore:

  • Practices to deepen your path of self-knowledge and enhance your life’s journey.
  • Concepts, integrative frameworks, and didactic material to better understand and interpret the soul’s movements toward health.
  • A depth, transgenerational exploration that reveals the psychological dynamics that inform your relationships.
  • A more encompassing perspective of the entanglements or problems of your daily life, which invites an increased compassionate capacity for emotional self-regulation.
  • A ritual approach around the activation of your potentials and soul’s gifts in service of individual and collective blossoming.
  • Practices that you can incorporate into your work in the healing and mental health fields.
