**Constellations Familiales, Systémiques, Animiques.** **Paris** **Dimanche 24 mai** **14h30 - 18h00** **Au 64 rue des Tournelles 75003** **Inscriptions ici :** [réservations ici](https://www.billetweb.fr/constellations32) Infos : ilariainscriptions@gmail.com Il vous sera demandé de remplir un formulaire préalable à la séance pour cibler des thématiques récurrentes dans l'arbre généalogique. **Constellations familiales, systémiques et alchimiques** Certaines difficultés que nous traversons ne viennent pas seulement de nous. Elles peuvent prendre racine dans des expériences passées, dans notre histoire familiale, ou dans des dynamiques plus profondes, souvent inconscientes, qui continuent d’agir à travers nous. *** ### ✨ Vous pouvez être concerné(e) si vous vivez : * des schémas répétitifs dans vos relations (attirance pour le même type de partenaire, difficultés à vous engager ou à vous sentir en sécurité) * une peur de l’abandon, du rejet ou du jugement * une difficulté à trouver votre place, à vous affirmer ou à poser des limites * un sentiment de blocage, comme si quelque chose vous empêchait d’avancer malgré votre compréhension * des émotions intenses ou envahissantes (anxiété, tristesse, colère, vide) * une sensation de porter quelque chose qui ne vous appartient pas * des loyautés invisibles à votre système familial * des difficultés à recevoir, à donner, à vous ouvrir à l’amour * des répétitions dans votre vie (échecs, relations, situations similaires) * une difficulté à incarner pleinement qui vous êtes *** ### 🌊 Ce que permettent les constellations Les constellations familiales et systémiques permettent de rendre visibles ces dynamiques invisibles. À travers le groupe, une mise en espace vivante se déploie, révélant ce qui agit en profondeur et qui ne peut pas toujours être compris mentalement. Ce travail permet : * de remettre du mouvement là où quelque chose est figé * de libérer des charges émotionnelles ou transgénérationnelles * de retrouver une place plus juste dans votre système * d’apaiser les relations (à soi, à l’autre, à la famille) * de rétablir un sentiment de sécurité intérieure * d’ouvrir à une expérience plus libre et plus alignée de vous-même *** ### 🌿 Un travail à la fois thérapeutique et intérieur Ce processus ne repose pas sur l’analyse, mais sur une intelligence plus profonde du vivant. Il s’agit de laisser émerger ce qui cherche à être vu, reconnu et transformé. Les mouvements qui apparaissent peuvent parfois dépasser ce que l’on comprend, mais ils ouvrent à des changements concrets dans la vie. *** ### Pour participer Vous pouvez venir : * avec une problématique personnelle à explorer * ou simplement en tant que participant (le travail agit également en profondeur) Aucune expérience n’est nécessaire. *** ### ✨ Cadre L’espace est confidentiel, respectueux et sécurisant. Chaque personne est accueillie dans ce qu’elle traverse, sans jugement. C’est une expérience profondément transformatrice — pour la personne qui constelle comme pour les représentants. Comment se déroule une constellation ? Vous apportez une problématique concrète. Le groupe représente les éléments de votre système. Le mouvement profond peut alors émerger, et retrouver une harmonie perdue. Chaque constellation dure environ 1h à 1h30. Aucune connaissance préalable n’est nécessaire.

Réduction de 10 € pour toute participation aux deux ateliers. Une constellation est une expérience collective de transformation. Un espace pour retrouver sa place, libérer ce qui entrave et laisser circuler l’amour. Avec amour, Ilaria Rubei [www.ilariarubei.com](http://www.ilariarubei.com/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExNzZOR2ttaE5RS1N5aDFiVXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4lCCoTc7Ev2z32NwSFYrsDb7NwjpvRNkDCnRuU0h4g4JVSOtd8QxmQgRivPg_aem_0OB9B2ytowKqs-8-zE4Wyg)

This is "***New Members Night***." If you are one of the many folks on the fence about coming to your first wine tasting with the *Hilliard Wine Club*, this is the night to come. There will be many other new people, so you won't be alone. And the regulars will be there to help make you feel welcome. We're a relaxed and warm group. We hope to see you. **SIDE NOTE:** New members are welcome to ALL our Friday night wine tastings, but this night is a special overture to those who don't want to feel that they are the only new person in the room. Don't worry. You won't be. And don't hesitate to RSVP to other events. **OLD MEMBERS NOTE**: Hey Old Members! You're not excluded from this event. We expect to see you there to help make the new members feel welcome. **Sample 4 different wines** this Friday for $15 (*Cash or Venmo only please*). Glasses are provided. Bring a snack to share. Bring a bottle to share if you care to. See all the details below for the Hilliard Wine Club Wine Tasting. In Person. In Real Life. Actual Wine from glass bottles with corks and everything. **Wine**: Tastings will be $15 for four samples as always. And you are welcome to bring a bottle of your favorite wine to share with others. Participation in the wine tastings is optional. But since you’re going, I will buy enough wine to cover you. If you bring your own wine and do not participate in the tasting you will only pay $10 to cover the door charge. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **Extra Wine**: After everyone has had their samples, we remove the pouring spouts and any remaining wine is poured freely to whomever wants it. I hate having leftover wine. **Queen of Hearts**: The Queen of Hearts raffle is a fundraiser for the club and a Barnum and Bailey type extravaganza - minus the dancing ponies, clowns, and actual circus. Bring your ***cash*** as the Queen does not accept American Express or other plastic. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*

She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.

**Karaoke Night**: Bring your glee club friends. Enjoy a flashback to your choir days. No chorus line. It's all you baby. Sing. Shout. Scream. Lip sync if you need to.
