Ancestral Trauma Healing Retreat

You are a link in a chain of causation that stretches before and after you for several generations.

​

In the same way you may have encountered hardship and emotional challenges including traumatic experiences, those who came before you may have encountered similar challenges.

​

When their trauma didn’t get resolved –faced, processed, integrated, and healed– before they passed, it was archived in your individual and collective fields.

​

This trauma gets handled from generation to generation, many times unknowingly –hence the name "shadow"– in search for resolution.

​

This is how, in the same way traditions, heirlooms, hair color, and secret family recipes were passed down through your family to you, you may have also inherited trauma.

​

Generational trauma –known as intergenerational, transgenerational, or ancestral trauma– is a cycle of trauma that passes through families.

​

It occurs through biological, environmental, psychological, and social means.

​

Epigenetic changes or shifts in a person's DNA due to a traumatic experience also cause ancestral trauma.

​

Ancestral trauma happens when a group experiences a traumatic event that causes economic, cultural, and familial distress.

​

In response, people belonging to that group develop and pass on physical or psychological symptoms like:

* Anxiety

* Depression

* Heart disease

* Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

​

Subsequent generations may inherit trauma and the associated health conditions through factors like discrimination and prejudice.

​

When we work on bringing light to the shadows in our family's lineage, everyone feels safer and with more freedom to do what each came to do.

​

In this Ancestral Trauma Healing Retreat in Sacred Valley, we will define your role in your family as that of a link in a chain of causation, extending before and after you for countless generations, and how this role is affected y the energetic threads and emotional cording inherited from your ancestors.

 

We will explore which of the 7 shadows run through your family, which you may have inherited, define "family karma", and work on bringing light to these shadows for everyone in your family lineage.

 

Together we will reveal your family relationships beyond the biological, claim the karmic shadows in your family lineage, use karmic mapping to closely observe the relationships in your family, and and use meditation, assertive dialogue circles, Cacao Ceremony, Q'ero Inca "Despacho" ceremony, and other tools to help find the way to stand whole in your family system.
