Etiquette

Meeting in a virtual room from home is different in many ways.
Please obey the following rules to make it a pleasant experience for all participants:

1. Choose a quiet room with a good light source that is facing you, i.e. a window (daylight) or a desktop lamp or a selfie light (nighttime). The room shall be free of distractions and noise.

2. Abstain from smoking, drinking and eating during the workshop (only water is allowed). Moving out of sight of the camera, fetching things or yelling at the dog would disrupt the workshop.

3. Participation is not allowed when intoxicated by alcohol or drugs.

4. Place the device you’re using for Zoom on a raised platform in front of you, the camera is at the height of your hairline. Your face should cover most of the screen (think of a portrait photo for a passport)

5. Close any curtains on windows and turn off light sources behind you, make sure your face is clearly seen on the screen.

6. Have a water bottle, tissues and a large pillow or fluffy toy next to you.

7. Inappropriate or abusive behaviour or language will not be tolerated.

8. A breach of the etiquette can result in exclusion from the workshop.

I couldn't find a virtual Family Constellation Facilitator training anywhere. After googling and searching, I found this beautiful training with Maia. It was exactly what I was looking for. I love how Maia incorporate other healing modalities and made the connection between spirituality and family constellation. It is all connected! This training was Godsend and I am beyond grateful!

I have so much Love and Gratitude for Maia and her work in Family Constellations. After experiencing a few now, I am still so amazed! Very profound in how it works with healing on many levels. It has not only helped me in releasing personal childhood trauma, which is not easy at times, also trauma from my whakapapa and past generations. Thank you Maia!

I want to thank you Maia from my heart for what you enabled for me during the family constellation workshop. I feel a huge weight has flown from my body to allow positive healing to begin after many years of negativity, the last two being hell on earth. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts and being here. Kia ora, my heart is very humble and for once is light again. Love and gratefulness to you.

I had several family constellations with Maia about my struggels with studies, business, children issues and my own habits and fears. The way Maia is facilitating family constellations makes me feel comfortable, open, secure and nourished. The sessions with Maia have allowed me to finally embark on my way to true self-healing and to bring all issues I had to an end.

Maia has a unique approach to Family Constellations - in accordance to the legacy left from Bert Hellinger her Constellations treat the essential - the roots of the imbalance.

I have been in her Family Constellation workshops and latly her online workshops - her online group sessions have proven to be really fantastic. You can certainly receive the benefits of being part of a group dynamic and be constellated from your own home.

Having done both group and private Family Constellation sessions online I can say that they are both as effective as sessions in person. To my surprise I found that the group sessions worked even better online. Being alone in my own home was familiar and comfortable. Perhaps I was less self-conscious, or less distracted. Whatever the reason, we were all in agreement that the virtual format was more intense. Both as a character and as a watching participant it was less like a performance and more of a group conversation. More intimate, more of a collaboration in spirit.

Maia has a flexible attitude of exploration that makes it easy to trust her instincts, and go for the journey, set up for enquiry, being confident that it will always be worth the trip. The resulting resolutions brought powerful and meaningful outcomes in every case.

The morning after my first family constellation workshop with Maia I woke up with new eyes. Everything looked different, more vibrant and alive. I suddenly had no need to spend hours scrolling through social media and posting about stuff, it felt meaningless and like a waste of time. Instead I went in the garden and looked after my veggie patch. It was so peaceful. Thank you for this profound experience which opened my heart and my eyes to what is really important in life.

Thank you so much for today, I was really buzzing after the workshop, I felt like jumping and hugging everyone that came my way.

I was suffering of armpit odour since my teenagehood. No matter what I did, it was always there. The same week I had a one-on-one session with Maia about this issue I wore a sleeveless dress again, the odour was completely gone!

At first I was concerned that online Family Constellation sessions would probably not work well, or at least be considerably less effective than sessions in person with Maia. But what I found was the online group energy was just as strong as before, and my personal experiences were just as insightful and just as healing for me as in previous sessions. In fact in some cases, I felt the energy was even stronger.

I feel it is extremely important though when the sessions are online that the facilitator is especially experienced in guiding Family Constellations. We are blessed that Maia is such a facilitator. Thank you Maia. Love

My first Family Constellation workshop. I can tell Maia is a deeply tuned-in spiritual being, with her feet on the ground and great wisdom to compliment her considerable and lucid intelligence. Friends had recommended Family Constellations as a complimentary modality to the Hakomi psychotherapy I have graduated in, and it seems Maia is one of the most (if not the most) experienced and trained facilitator. It was an intense day! Quite different from anything else I've tried. Beautifully conducted, clearly explained, and conducted in an embodied, interactive way that catered to my individual concerns and outlook. I'll definitely be trying this again. Amazing group process - powerful but lighthearted, fun and comfortable.

It has been a wonderful opportunity to get to meet & work with Maia and the virtual family. She guided me to shed light on those circumstances that were consuming me, to remind me of my way home and to the realisation that I've been carrying the key to enter it all along. Thanks to my friend that recommended Maia’s family constellation. 💗
Virna M.
Thank you so very much for yet again a profound experience and Healing day. It was very powerful and yet peaceful!

I am very grateful for your teaching, providing a space to safely tackle generational trauma and your tranquil approach.

I’ve completed several online Family Constellations with Maia and, like in-person constellations, I’ve been blown away by their power. In fact, there seems to be something particularly strong in the connection when it’s done online. The healing is absolutely as profound as in person and Maia skilfully facilitates the process with awareness and compassion. I highly recommend it.
Gabrielle M.
It is amazing how immediately and authentically we are able to see the heart of the issues that emerge within the family dynamic in family constellations facilitated by Maia. I've learnt a huge amount about myself each time I have been.
Kate S.
I have been attending many family constellations and Maia is an extraordinary gift to New Zealand. It is such as honour collaborating and supporting her work. With many years of experience she is an amazing facilitator and very well educated by the master Bert Hellinger. I highly recommend this healing modality to everyone.

Since beginning family constellation work with Maia, there has been a marked improvement in my family's relationships. This has been experienced not only by myself, but on a wider familial scale. I have watched dynamics slowly and gently change for the better and there is a clear sense of more space and capacity for everyone to move in different, healthier directions and ways of relating. Prior to this work, I was not on speaking terms with any of my immediate family. We struggled to speak without animosity and tension taking over the interaction. It was awful. With this work, we have been able to build our relationships through phone calls, and even had a small visit with one another recently. We enjoyed each other's company and it was the most peaceful interaction we have had in recent memory. On a personal level, I have experienced a greater sense of peace, health and well being. I have watched my brother and father begin to form a bond they struggled to build before, my dad is finally beginning to see possibilities for himself and he is exploring them. My mom is also working on her own personal development in areas she has always wanted to, but felt unable to, while my brother is branching out bravely into areas he never thought possible in his personal and professional life, as am I. This work has been able to free each of us in ways unique to each person, allowing us to delve into areas we want to work on and find forward momentum and progress- whereas before it felt no matter how much therapy or work was done, some things were hidden or muffled and solutions to growth, progress and development, were frustratingly hidden from view or ineffective no matter how much work we each were doing. It feels that now, each individual can bloom and thrive in the unique ways each of us most needed and our entire family unit is becoming healthier as a result. There's still more to do, but I feel we are headed in a wonderful direction with the support Constellation Therapy has offered.

Thank you for hosting the recent constellation workshop, introducing me to this exciting field, and shepherding us through the process. It has deeply affected me, and already impacted my psychotherapy practice in some very beneficial ways. I look forward to attending future workshops and trainings with you.
Mark C.
Thank you so much for the workshop. It was incredible and I got a feeling, in the morning, that all my male ancestors on that side were thrilled.
Alex B.
I am grateful for Maia's guidance in this continuous learning at the school of life, for I have applied what she taught to my own family system, improved all interrupted reaching out movement with my parents, siblings and deceased ancestors through her skilful experience. Thank you for your strength, gentleness, deep intuition and passion to share. I will honor your love by living the best version of myself.
Meilinda S.
Thank you so much for your time and wonderful skills, you truly are amazing. I love your energy and your vibe is brilliant. This family constellation work is so powerful and very healing. I am so grateful to you for bringing it to us.

I wanted to thank you for the beautiful group session we had the other day and the amazing opportunity to work on my own constellation. It came at the right time, felt really good and profound to release and I am open to see and experience what happens next..
Christina Y.
I met Maia two years ago while I was going through a big transformation in my life. Thanks to this healing modality, I have been able to heal deep wounds in my family system and to connect and received the love from my direct family and all my ancestors. I have done both ways, present and virtual workshops with Maia, and found that both of them work perfectly and are equally powerful. For me it is great that we now have more flexibility to attend. I will be forever thankful to Maia for making me reconnect from love to my family, specially with my mum. Thank you Maia for holding this amazing healing space.
