This course is open for leaders, activists, and change-makers who are working at the forefront of societal transformation. Our wider ways of knowing are powerful tools for navigating the subtleties of complexity. Activating and applying them are critical for the times we live in. The practices of systemic constellation and systems sensing can help individuals and teams move through intense dynamics with greater ease, efficiency and alignment.
This foundational course is an introduction to our wider ways of knowing by exploring systems sensing, systemic constellation and the importance of land and place in working on societal issues and complex challenges. We work with essential key concepts, methods and practices for individuals and groups. It supports participants in expanding, deepening, and differentiating their perception skills. Much focus lies on engaging practically with various forms of knowledge through solo, small group and whole group exercises.
The practice of systems sensing is a broad term for a range of somatic approaches that expand our field of awareness and engage with a system’s wisdom. Sensing a system can be understood as a visceral aptitude that draws on innate human capacities for being in relation with, listening deeply to, and momentarily embodying the elements of a system.
Sensing uses extended and multiple ways of knowing to understand and connect with different aspects of a situation or context. These ways of knowing can be somatic, emotional, visual, visceral, relational, and spatial, and both individuals and groups can use them.

The practice of systemic constellations allows us to visualize a system's interaction patterns and interdependent relationships. By making these dynamics visible, we widen our understanding and obtain a greater variety of choices in how we respond. By revealing what often goes unsaid, has not been acknowledged, or challenges that may lie hidden, Systemic Constellations can support leadership in identifying root causes and leverage points for greater collaboration and creating and maintaining greater coherence within complex systems.

The practice of working with land and place invites us to widen our felt and cognitive understanding of interrelatedness and interbeing. Land and place, including the subtle and more-than-human realm, are important dimensions of welcoming subtle layers - both present and past: Especially when working with sensitive, intertwined and multilayered issues, this approach–deeply rooted in indigenous ways of living and being from across the globe–becomes critical to open up to and start seeing and respecting it as kin’s holding vital knowledge and wisdom for taking long-term viable decisions and actions.
The 3.5-day course combines theoretical inputs and essential background information on these different aspects, small-group and whole-group exercises and practices, time for reflection and integration, and connecting with nature and the more-than-human.
