Systems, emotional processing and the unconscious - exploring transgenerational transmission

We are unconsciously and permanently shaped by our past, our family’s past, and our cultural heritage. This program invites you to a deep knowledge and experience of working with your script (your own life story) as well as the transgenerational script (the life story of the family and the community we are part of).

In this in-depth research of the transgenerational script, we explore patterns of transgenerational transmission and the impact on personal resources and difficulties in the present. We study the functioning of members in the family system and the relationship to symptoms in the system, as well as the relationship between symptoms, anxiety, and reactivity in the system.
We will look at the family system through different lenses, such as group dynamics, attachment and relational needs, the importance of breaking emotional contact, family script beliefs, and how multigenerational transmission works in one’s own family system, including the unconscious ways in which we pass it on to the next generation.
We will examine the family projective processes, the vulnerability factors and the influence of the family system we are part of, on health and pathology, and how these can be reflected in societal problems.

The participants will be invited to deepen their own transgenerational script through the homework assignments of the modules – the study of their own family.
