We all know something about our family trees or at least about our origins. What if that knowledge could become a life changing supportive resource for your every day journey? Modern Ancestral Practice (MAP) aims to bring the power of our lineages, of our roots, into our present moment, connecting us to the wisdom of all those who came before us. It supports us to never feel alone or isolated, it informs our decision making to avoid repeating old scenarios, it helps us create a new relationship with our family ancestors to feel our own place in the lineage and to wholeheartedly belong. It improves existing relationships, helps to learn about oneself, heals wounds of childhood and separation.
Here you will find information and resources to begin this journey and to take it further. Modern Ancestral Practice combines elements of systemic ritual, family constellations, guided meditation, shamanic work and nature rituals. It is based on the wheel of six i - information, imagination, intention, interaction, inspiration, integration. They are all connected and essential to every ritual, every meditation and constellation. Also tools such as representing and the wheel are used in this practice and you will learn about them on your journey.

Ancestral Conversations - What are Ancestors?
To learn more about ancestral work and various ways it is practiced worldwide you are invited to watch the series of interviews Aleksandra holds with practitioner of ancestral work and family constellations. Francesca Mason Boring, Daan van Kampenhout, Chetna Lawless, Tanja Meyburgh, Mbali Marais and Anel Hamersma are explaining what are ancestors to them, how they work with them, what are the benefits of working with ancestors and some simple steps to begin this work for yourself. More conversations are being added regularly so could be a good idea to subscribe.
Further Practice
The next step on this journey with your ancestors is this offer of further three rituals that combine what you already know from introduction rituals and add other elements to help you start creating your own process. These offer contains three videos that explain rituals and take you through them, but unlike the introduction ones, here you are invited to set up and do it yourself, as big or as small as you wish and in full or in part as feels appropriate. They could also be modified to address a different topic using the same lay out of the ritual.
Modern Ancestral Practice Rituals - Step 2
£119.00
I created an online resource for anyone to be able to access the gifts and resources of their ancestral lines. With this offer you receive access to three guided rituals, two meditations and handouts - taking you step by step through creating your own ancestral ritual for healing, for balance, for harmony and just to start connecting to all the resources in your wider family systems. In our lives we often focus on the trauma that we received through generations and that we now have to deal with; but we also received a foundation for becoming who we are, for our strength and resilience; and if we begin to pay attention we are able to continue to receive their support. Everything that we experience today, everything we feel, has already had a place at some point for our ancestors, they've been through it and developed ways to cope, process, transform it for the better, and we can access this wisdom through ritual, intention, and prayer.
- Three videos will tell you about three rituals - connecting with ancestral field; bringing balance to it; and good endings.
- Two audio meditations will help you prepare for each ritual and to end it.
- Step by step handouts list everything you need to set it up and do it.
The important thing is to be creative. To take guidance, create structure and then fill it up with your own content, relevant for your situation, for your intention, for your life. Enjoy!
On receipt of payment log in details will be sent to you to access the practice page.
This resource and practice is on its own journey as well. It keeps creating itself, adding new layers and dimensions. It is so joyful to have you witness and journey along! You are always welcome to contact Aleksandra if you have any questions, to book an individual session if something has come up that needs special attention and to participate in all live workshops that will develop your MAP event further!
workshops and circles (live online)
Take your practice one step further with these live online circles. Systemic Ritual and family constellations are great methods to inform this MAP and help support your process - being in a group of people who are walking the same journey and share similar values could be relieving and healing. Ritual has always been 'an all village' process, where you see your own self reflected in the eyes and experiences of others, confirming your meaning.
Mind Body Soul Ancestral Ritual - 14 December
£19.00 - £31.00
17.00-19.00 BST
Just as we are preparing to end this year with all that it brought to us, we are going to do a ritual on integration of different aspects of our Selves - body, mind and soul - with the help of our ancestors, their gifts and resources. We'll work with each aspect and its ancestors separately, bringing it all together in the end to reclaim our wholeness and wholeheartedness to feel stronger, more resourced and supported as we transit through Winter Solstice and into 2021.
This is a third of a series of three systemic rituals to tap into the power and entanglements of your ancestral field, working on your own patterns, dreams and healing at the same time learning about systemic ritual, its diversity and wholeheartedness. All three rituals are ancestral, bringing healing to you and your family system. Unlike previous four ritual that we did on the Wheel of Four Directions, these rituals are all different in structure, scale and shape.
Systemic Ritual is a therapeutic method created by Daan van Kampenhout, which combines systemic family constellations method with shamanic ritual to create a healing and resourcing process that allows us to connect with wider ancestral fields, their resources, strength and gifts. Aleksandra trained with Daan in Mexico, Vienna, Paris and is now supporting his workshops and trainings around the world.

Online Family Constellations Circle - 19 December
£20.00 - £90.00
14.00- 17.00 GMT
Issue Holder place (2 available) - £90
Representative place (10 available) - £20
We will come together as a virtual circle of maximum 15 people on zoom, connected by the intention to work with the field. This method works equally effectively online as in person. We have a short interview with an issue holder about the presenting question/situation and then ask participants in the circle to represent relevant elements/people of the family system, revealing the hidden patterns, dynamics and loyalties that might be driving the issue. We will do two constellations with breaks where necessary.
Systemic Family Constellations is a beautiful way to look at the real roots of some of the issues we face in life. It gives a different perspective and provides a new understanding of the dynamics that guide us in our decision making. It helps to reveal what is true for our relationships, and hopefully create shifts that would initiate healing and change. In a constellations circle we learn how to listen to our bodies through representing various family members, we learn to be in the present moment with what is and without any judgement or interpretation of what is happening.
Systemic constellations are not to be used to replace any conventional medical or psychotherapeutic diagnosis or treatment.
