El Regreso del Alma is the third part of the cycle, where we, together with the participants, explored the relationship with what is called the soul. The first workshop took place in Montreal this Summer, the second -in St. Petersburg, Russia, in September, and the third one – in Bogota, Colombia.

Glad to see how it turned out. The workshop was almost completely devote to Systemic Constellations. We took exercises and group techniques applying sound and voice to help ourselves, too.

I admire the way the group worked. I’ll leave some insights for later. It must be said, meanwhile, that one of the important experiences and observations is related to how different in different cultures is the access to heavy existential experience and to deeper content, in general. Ability and capacity in entering and leaving behind what such an experience is made of, is significantly different, as well as the ability to share it with others. Capacity to take from it what will balance and restore stability and trust in oneself and the world.


I feel deep respect to what people are dealing with here. And how do they deal with it. The intensity of presence of what people have to deal with here: the history of the recent civil war, everyday violence and general tension, changes the internal requirements for “emotional capacity”. People are able to carry very strong dynamics within themselves, and to retain the ability to trust and act from the depths of what is the true self. There is a lot of it here, and it is clearly visible in the local culture.

Many thanks to my beloved, Suhey Saavedra Arango, for organizing the event, Nidia Bacca for the opportunity to work in a well-known room. Translator Rodrigo Rodríguez Morales – for patience. Sincere gratitude to the participants for their determination to work deeply and withstand with love and clarity, withstand the things that not everyone can withstand. However, to withstand – it seems like it is a part of the regular order of things here, in Colombia.
