- 0:34Tracy Cartwright: Welcome to constellations and all that.
- 0:37Tracy Cartwright: Today I had the pleasure of talking to my colleague, uh, in the beautiful south island, Nelson, Isabel Tis Isabelle.
- 0:48Tracy Cartwright: Oh, welcome.
- 0:49Tracy Cartwright: Thank you very much for having me.
- 0:52Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, it's a bit of cold and and gray today, so it's quite nice to just catch up and have a chat.
- 0:58Tracy Cartwright: Yes, it is
- 0:59Isabelle Eustace: nice having the heat pump on and being toasty.
- 1:03Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 1:03Isabelle Eustace: And I'm very excited.
- 1:05Tracy Cartwright: Great.
- 1:05Tracy Cartwright: I've got blankets and, and a, and scarf and yeah, it just feels nice to, to be nice and cozy.
- 1:12Tracy Cartwright: I'm gonna invite you, if you'd, uh, like to introduce yourself where you're from, a little bit about who you
- 1:19Isabelle Eustace: are.
- 1:19Isabelle Eustace: That's already a difficult one to kind of put that in a little introduction.
- 1:23Isabelle Eustace: But, um, yeah.
- 1:23Isabelle Eustace: I was born in France.
- 1:25Isabelle Eustace: My mom is French and I grew up in Germany.
- 1:28Isabelle Eustace: My dad is German, and I came to New Zealand in 2001, traveling as a backpacker.
- 1:35Isabelle Eustace: But before that I had a long draw to come to New Zealand.
- 1:39Isabelle Eustace: I always wanted to go, never kind of fitted.
- 1:41Isabelle Eustace: Then I had family members and friends saying, oh, I'm sure when you are there you fall in love and the others, nah, nah.
- 1:49Isabelle Eustace: Coming back.
- 1:50Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 1:50Isabelle Eustace: And then it happened.
- 1:51Isabelle Eustace: Exactly.
- 1:52Isabelle Eustace: I fell in love coming here with the country and a man.
- 1:55Isabelle Eustace: So I, uh, married back in Germany 2002 and lived here since 2003 and all this kind of happened for me.
- 2:04Isabelle Eustace: During my time when I worked with Family Constellation about Family Constellation and did my training.
- 2:11Isabelle Eustace: So in the midst of all that, just getting my first step going, I just came to New Zealand and had to learn English.
- 2:19Tracy Cartwright: Fantastic.
- 2:20Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 2:20Tracy Cartwright: So you've, you've put your roots down in Nelson and it's beautiful.
- 2:24Tracy Cartwright: It was
- 2:24Isabelle Eustace: a nice place.
- 2:25Isabelle Eustace: I kind of traveled around the north island and around the south island, and I like the north.
- 2:31Isabelle Eustace: West of Auckland and I really liked the Kora area.
- 2:35Isabelle Eustace: And then this man was in Nelson and it kind of was the top pick.
- 2:40Isabelle Eustace: Yeah,
- 2:41Tracy Cartwright: I always said that if I didn't live in Fang Nelson would probably be one of the places that I would choose.
- 2:47Tracy Cartwright: 'cause I really like the area.
- 2:48Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 2:49Isabelle Eustace: I like, I remember people here saying, oh no.
- 2:52Isabelle Eustace: Now we would just choose Nelson just for the climate, and I know exactly what they mean.
- 2:56Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 2:57Isabelle Eustace: Now that I lived here, it's just has such a nice climate and it's just nestled in so many diverse national parks and it still feels a bit, there's space around.
- 3:08Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 3:09Isabelle Eustace: I, I, I'm really tear through my husband.
- 3:13Isabelle Eustace: And he's a Kiwi, but originally from South Auckland.
- 3:16Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 3:17Isabelle Eustace: So, um, he moved away from there.
- 3:19Isabelle Eustace: He grew up as a skinny white boy in O Tara and then, uh, then could have had an urge to leave.
- 3:26Isabelle Eustace: Went traveling for many, many, many years.
- 3:28Isabelle Eustace: Tattooed in Wellington a little bit, and then really on the south island.
- 3:31Isabelle Eustace: 'cause he loved the mountains.
- 3:33Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 3:33Tracy Cartwright: Well, what a place to be.
- 3:35Tracy Cartwright: Tell me, when did you first meet Constellations?
- 3:39Tracy Cartwright: I know it's, it, you know, obviously it has its roots, some of its roots in, in Germany, but what was your first introduction to it?
- 3:47Isabelle Eustace: I was just listening to your podcast, thinking about my, my thinking when I grew up.
- 3:53Isabelle Eustace: I didn't grow up with lots of traumas as such a kind of easy childhood as such.
- 4:00Isabelle Eustace: Mm-hmm.
- 4:00Isabelle Eustace: But maybe not super connected to my parents, but I couldn't say there was a lot of trauma.
- 4:05Isabelle Eustace: But I did notice that my family becomes sports, so I, I'm very in the volleyball and I remember that that really became my ative, uh, family like, 'cause I kind of didn't feel very bonded to mine, I guess.
- 4:19Isabelle Eustace: Even though I always said I'm very bonded with my mom, so I kind of got into the sports area, into physical and that gave me life energy and it gave me, uh, self-esteem and all that.
- 4:31Isabelle Eustace: So I went to university and I was very, like, I've never had anything to do with energy work or anything like I very scientific.
- 4:38Isabelle Eustace: Like my sports studies are sports science, but then slowly, slowly, like I've got a little bit into, um, rehabilitation and handicap sport and personality types, thinking, Hmm, why do these characters get cancer and others more heart attack this person?
- 4:54Isabelle Eustace: Personality types to that.
- 4:56Isabelle Eustace: And I went more into the alternative health medicine.
- 4:59Isabelle Eustace: And in Germany it comes from the olden days of witches and so on.
- 5:03Isabelle Eustace: You, you can be a doctor or you have to do a degree, which is called a natural health practitioner.
- 5:10Isabelle Eustace: And only if you are that or that can you work with alternative medicine.
- 5:14Isabelle Eustace: You can't just do homeopathy.
- 5:15Isabelle Eustace: You have to go to, um, the have a D as a natural health practitioner, which is really.
- 5:21Isabelle Eustace: Quite tricky.
- 5:22Isabelle Eustace: It's a bit like the first two years of becoming a GP and then you get tested in front of the city and a doctor and so on.
- 5:31Isabelle Eustace: Like your panel of four people asking you, somebody comes and has a headache, what do you do?
- 5:35Isabelle Eustace: So that was pretty intense.
- 5:36Isabelle Eustace: But that was my, my step alternative health.
- 5:40Isabelle Eustace: And there I met this beautiful friend of mine, Daniel Shorter.
- 5:44Isabelle Eustace: Was now also a trainer in Family Constellation.
- 5:48Isabelle Eustace: And he said to me, no.
- 5:50Isabelle Eustace: Oh, there's this new modality.
- 5:51Isabelle Eustace: And, and before that I had a little bit touch points with was energy healing.
- 5:56Isabelle Eustace: Like somebody who fixed something in my hand without even touching me.
- 5:59Isabelle Eustace: It's like, what?
- 6:00Isabelle Eustace: And Diana said, yeah, come to this, um, workshop.
- 6:04Isabelle Eustace: It's amazing.
- 6:05Isabelle Eustace: And, uh, funny enough, now looking back, that was probably 1999, this first workshop, the teacher.
- 6:14Isabelle Eustace: Was actually a distant relative of my grandma.
- 6:17Isabelle Eustace: It's like what?
- 6:18Isabelle Eustace: Like she said, oh, I'm actually, I can't quite remember what the connection was.
- 6:22Isabelle Eustace: And even the first consolation I had there, I was chosen as a representative for the main figure and she forgot to switch me out.
- 6:31Isabelle Eustace: And I said, that was my constellation.
- 6:33Isabelle Eustace: That was so my constellation, it's kind of how it started.
- 6:37Isabelle Eustace: I was hooked.
- 6:38Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 6:39Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 6:40Tracy Cartwright: Beautiful.
- 6:41Tracy Cartwright: So how long after that did you decide that that was the path that you were gonna follow?
- 6:46Isabelle Eustace: I pretty much became a, I call like an addict.
- 6:50Isabelle Eustace: I just did a whole year, probably every constellation I could go to, I used to go to just for the experience.
- 6:57Isabelle Eustace: And then I never had the self esteem to bear with it.
- 7:00Isabelle Eustace: But then my friend said, I'm going to do this training.
- 7:04Isabelle Eustace: Like, okay, I join you.
- 7:05Isabelle Eustace: And that's how I started.
- 7:07Isabelle Eustace: Like, and, and I, the entry point was I kind of felt, I always had very unhappy relationships and I always felt.
- 7:14Isabelle Eustace: The men are not seeing me.
- 7:16Isabelle Eustace: And then I realized, Hmm, maybe I'm actually not really there.
- 7:20Isabelle Eustace: So that kind of was an entry point for me to actually do a bit more internal work.
- 7:25Isabelle Eustace: And so with the family consultation, it very quickly came to, okay, let's send, let's put up those.
- 7:31Isabelle Eustace: Unhappy relationships.
- 7:33Isabelle Eustace: That kind of was my side entry point.
- 7:36Isabelle Eustace: Um, yeah, of the inner, our work and the training was really interesting because I felt in the first year, like Constellation was me.
- 7:45Isabelle Eustace: It's like, oh, it was really hard work.
- 7:48Isabelle Eustace: It was really a lot.
- 7:50Isabelle Eustace: 'cause then they had five days of you feel like every constellation is yours.
- 7:54Isabelle Eustace: And in Germany, 80% of the constellation were war like.
- 7:58Isabelle Eustace: There is so much war trauma.
- 8:01Isabelle Eustace: Me being French and German, I was like the victims, I was the perpetrator.
- 8:05Isabelle Eustace: I was everything all the time.
- 8:07Isabelle Eustace: So I was very blessed when the second year constellation training happened and I got offered to be a, um, an assistant.
- 8:16Isabelle Eustace: 'cause I felt that time I was a little bit more removed from my juicy stuff.
- 8:22Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 8:22Isabelle Eustace: And I could be more in the training and the assistant.
- 8:25Isabelle Eustace: So that was very valuable to me.
- 8:28Isabelle Eustace: So we were before assistant.
- 8:30Isabelle Eustace: And, uh, still always felt, oh, how, how meant to work with this.
- 8:35Isabelle Eustace: I'm not used to energy work.
- 8:37Isabelle Eustace: And then Helen are very nice and, and ramers are my culture as well.
- 8:41Isabelle Eustace: They say no the, the top nos when they are not in the room, everybody can actually do it, but as long as you are surrounded by these great, you always feel you're not as good as them.
- 8:51Isabelle Eustace: So, um, yeah, we just started Daniel and me just, just us running little courses and in the midst of all that came New Zealand and me kind of after just starting with it, having to immigrate to New Zealand.
- 9:04Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, that was a bit bit harsh'cause I would describe my style very much as the beginning style where it's quite pure in a way and uses a lot of heer at the beginning.
- 9:16Isabelle Eustace: Used a lot of healing sentences.
- 9:18Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, I didn't even remember all his like, 'cause I'm so influenced by the beginning stages.
- 9:23Isabelle Eustace: I didn't even keep up with his later work where he was very much just energetically and he kind of seems to sense everything.
- 9:29Isabelle Eustace: I don't, so I usually just really ask the field.
- 9:33Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:34Tracy Cartwright: Beautiful.
- 9:35Isabelle Eustace: Wow.
- 9:36Isabelle Eustace: But comes to me, which is so nice for me to watch it.
- 9:39Isabelle Eustace: So this was all like around 2000, 2002 is when I came here.
- 9:43Isabelle Eustace: When we were in the beginning phase of all that, we went to workshop, we went to the Congress with Bert Hellinger, and, and it was just for everything we wanted, like a sponge and then me coming here and then no, having a family, having to work for a living and, and family consideration always was more like a hobby.
- 10:01Isabelle Eustace: It has a multitude of reasons why, but I never seemed to be earning a living with it.
- 10:05Isabelle Eustace: And then, so I had this.
- 10:07Isabelle Eustace: 15 years of not working with it.
- 10:09Isabelle Eustace: We also went sailing and so on, and I had these kids, and now it kind of feels like a Rebus, like the whole energy's coming back and you kind of opening that lid.
- 10:19Isabelle Eustace: I'm going back, look, look at this.
- 10:21Isabelle Eustace: I really, oh wow.
- 10:24Isabelle Eustace: I have like seven of those.
- 10:26Isabelle Eustace: I need to get them on DVDs, but they're so, I'm, I'm looking to listening to them again and they're really such a treasure.
- 10:33Tracy Cartwright: Have you got A-A-A-V-H-S that you watch them on?
- 10:36Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 10:37Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, but I still to, um, this one, this one is really like, that's my favorite.
- 10:41Tracy Cartwright: Is it?
- 10:42Tracy Cartwright: Is it all?
- 10:42Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, it is.
- 10:43Isabelle Eustace: That's the same.
- 10:43Isabelle Eustace: So I
- 10:44Tracy Cartwright: need to learn German before I can listen.
- 10:45Isabelle Eustace: That's the same.
- 10:46Isabelle Eustace: But this one, um, the to in there is a book out and it's called In English.
- 10:53Isabelle Eustace: Well that is, uh, like a lot to actually, all of it, probably to do with the Jewish and the Auschwitz and all.
- 11:01Isabelle Eustace: And so it's all the constellations talking to the victims and perpetrator and the ripper effects, and it's, oh my God, it's so
- 11:08Tracy Cartwright: amazing.
- 11:10Tracy Cartwright: Okay.
- 11:10Tracy Cartwright: I wonder if it's still available.
- 11:12Tracy Cartwright: Some of it not as easy to find.
- 11:14Tracy Cartwright: Right.
- 11:14Tracy Cartwright: I can send it to you.
- 11:15Tracy Cartwright: I have it.
- 11:16Tracy Cartwright: I can send it to you.
- 11:17Tracy Cartwright: Otherwise,
- 11:18Isabelle Eustace: I had it at the first constellation where I came and I lent it to one of the, um, oh, what's her name?
- 11:24Isabelle Eustace: I think I it to, no, to the photographer.
- 11:27Isabelle Eustace: And she really like, um, witnessed statements in there.
- 11:31Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 11:31Isabelle Eustace: Because you often ask the question, what attracts you most?
- 11:34Isabelle Eustace: Uh, what are you drawn to in constellations?
- 11:37Isabelle Eustace: And so I was thinking about that.
- 11:39Isabelle Eustace: And, um, for me it's definitely perpetra perpetrator, victim, uh, healing because I've seen it so often, but like the, the like.
- 11:48Isabelle Eustace: The concept upward and probably many people grow up with perpetrator bad, victim, innocent.
- 11:53Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 11:54Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 11:55Isabelle Eustace: And I really, it's not just the mental understanding when I really felt it on a deep level when healing, I was like the, the healing when the souls finds the way together.
- 12:05Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 12:06Isabelle Eustace: And you unite these and the healing out of that to, to experience that.
- 12:10Isabelle Eustace: And in those positions.
- 12:12Isabelle Eustace: Also with my background of French and German, that is definitely something which draws me again and again and again.
- 12:18Isabelle Eustace: And the sentence he said, which really ruffled my feathers and a lot of feathers was the, the sentence victims can become the greater perpetrators.
- 12:30Tracy Cartwright: It is so true
- 12:31Isabelle Eustace: and it's so, like you say that, and I still feel when I say it, it's like I know that society doesn't quite like that sentence.
- 12:38Tracy Cartwright: No, no.
- 12:38Tracy Cartwright: Society wants them to be the victims and then they can play their little violins and everything is like it's all going that way.
- 12:43Tracy Cartwright: But actually.
- 12:45Tracy Cartwright: Perpetrators, are you, uh, victims, perpetrators generally?
- 12:49Tracy Cartwright: Not always, but generally.
- 12:51Tracy Cartwright: And then that's like you say, they become the bigger perpetrator, right?
- 12:54Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 12:55Isabelle Eustace: And for me, that lands very deep.
- 12:56Isabelle Eustace: And I remember seeing, like, I remember being in a, in a constellation, I think it was the sister.
- 13:02Isabelle Eustace: And so her sister got murdered.
- 13:05Isabelle Eustace: And I was in the consideration, the victim, the sister and murderer was there and like to feel this and to allow, to allow your mother, it's like a love story.
- 13:14Isabelle Eustace: I love this person and you kind of, you can't say that.
- 13:18Isabelle Eustace: And I was in his arms and it was a unity and it like, and that stayed with me as like, oh my God, if you take the, the mind and look away and really let just the energy go, that's
- 13:30Tracy Cartwright: big.
- 13:31Tracy Cartwright: Mm. I remember doing, uh, with Barry crossed a constellation around schizophrenia.
- 13:37Tracy Cartwright: My family, there's schizophrenia in the family, so the field is schizophrenic, and I was so connected to the perpetrator, and my, my mind was saying, you should be more connected to the victim.
- 13:49Tracy Cartwright: You know, they're the ones that have experienced this, but my heart was so connected to the perpetrator and.
- 13:55Tracy Cartwright: And it made me tell over my life, I have kind of, of away in a way of nobody wants them in the family.
- 14:02Tracy Cartwright: There's a part of me that's been bringing them in.
- 14:05Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 14:06Tracy Cartwright: Energetically and a part of myself from my own, um, sexual abuse and, and there stuff like that that I experienced.
- 14:13Tracy Cartwright: There was this unconscious loyalty to the perpetrator the year as well.
- 14:17Tracy Cartwright: Perpetrators actually.
- 14:18Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 14:20Tracy Cartwright: It's fascinating, isn't it?
- 14:21Tracy Cartwright: When we think society says, you know this, this way, but actually think belongs.
- 14:26Tracy Cartwright: We can acknowledge that.
- 14:27Tracy Cartwright: We find that balance, that peace,
- 14:30Isabelle Eustace: and it feels soothing to me to kind of, with my, with my background recently, I think maybe two years ago through one of these online conferences, really got a taste of how protective my French family system was with not allowing me to even look to the perpetrator German side.
- 14:50Isabelle Eustace: It's the whole system.
- 14:51Tracy Cartwright: Which kind
- 14:52Isabelle Eustace: of kept me away.
- 14:53Isabelle Eustace: 'cause I used to say, why am I never like, 'cause in Family Constellation, you just work with what comes up.
- 14:59Isabelle Eustace: So I start with something and boom, it goes to the French side, boom, it goes to the French side.
- 15:03Isabelle Eustace: Ah, every time I, I follow the energy, it just goes to the French side.
- 15:08Isabelle Eustace: Maybe we should just find out why I'm not allowed to look into the German side, and then it kind of is like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
- 15:16Isabelle Eustace: So, yeah, I, I have a very affinity to, or it soothes my heart that the perpetrators have a place.
- 15:25Isabelle Eustace: 'cause I know it's in my background.
- 15:26Isabelle Eustace: It belongs to my, and not to just.
- 15:30Isabelle Eustace: Condemn it.
- 15:31Isabelle Eustace: Oh, you have perpetrator energy And to see everybody has it.
- 15:35Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 15:35Isabelle Eustace: That does something to my soul.
- 15:38Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 15:38Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 15:39Tracy Cartwright: And often people don't wanna admit that.
- 15:41Tracy Cartwright: Right.
- 15:41Tracy Cartwright: No, I know.
- 15:43Tracy Cartwright: Especially when you come from good families.
- 15:45Tracy Cartwright: I'm doing, for those who are listening to this, I'm doing quite air quotation marks here.
- 15:49Tracy Cartwright: Good families, which is often, uh, trying to find a balance for something that has been not so good in the past.
- 15:57Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 15:58Tracy Cartwright: I mean, it's, yeah, there's good in not as all families.
- 16:03Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 16:03Isabelle Eustace: And, and that's the other thing from Family Constellation, for me it's kind of, it's, it's like a mm, that sounds a bit like a spiritual or like a religion.
- 16:12Isabelle Eustace: Like it has soothes my heart.
- 16:14Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 16:14Isabelle Eustace: Everything is okay.
- 16:15Isabelle Eustace: Everything has a place.
- 16:17Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 16:17Isabelle Eustace: Everything is how it is and, and really to take the good and the bad out of things.
- 16:23Isabelle Eustace: It is how Yeah.
- 16:24Isabelle Eustace: To really try to, to not.
- 16:27Isabelle Eustace: Use those too much.
- 16:28Isabelle Eustace: It's entanglement and less entanglement, whatever.
- 16:31Isabelle Eustace: But yeah, if I feel into that, I, I'm not always into that.
- 16:35Isabelle Eustace: You know, I'm, I live in the real world and I get angry and I, I judge and, but if I work, work every time, my ha my heart and we get so, so we are just part of something and we all have ours.
- 16:48Isabelle Eustace: Our little thing to carry,
- 16:50Tracy Cartwright: one of the most valuable things as a facilitator, right, is to be able to step outta the judgment.
- 16:54Tracy Cartwright: Yes, it's essential, yes, to a, uh, to facilitating.
- 16:58Tracy Cartwright: You have to step out of judgment, your own opinions, thoughts, and really feel what's there.
- 17:04Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, it just shifts what's, you've become an empty vessel as a representative and also as a facilitator, I feel, because you, you're allowing yourself to foot zero, acknowledge what is and feels like magic, but.
- 17:18Tracy Cartwright: The medicine happens
- 17:19Isabelle Eustace: and that's, no, I listened to you and you come from energy work and it fits so well together.
- 17:25Isabelle Eustace: That was my learning lesson to kind of, uh, like I can kind of feel something, but to, to trust.
- 17:32Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 17:33Tracy Cartwright: That's the beauty take.
- 17:34Tracy Cartwright: We all come from different angles and come in with our own, uh, our own and, and pathways.
- 17:40Tracy Cartwright: And did you get to meet Bert Hellinger?
- 17:44Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, not as a one-on-one, but I, I met him on a conference.
- 17:48Isabelle Eustace: I was just talking to Dania, was it Woods Book or Berg?
- 17:51Isabelle Eustace: A huge conference.
- 17:53Isabelle Eustace: And so you kind of go under in the messes and they have the little, um, uh, breakout rooms as well where you do.
- 17:58Isabelle Eustace: And then there was so many interesting topics.
- 18:00Isabelle Eustace: Uh, no, where do you go?
- 18:01Isabelle Eustace: And so he was just in the big area with everybody doing his thing.
- 18:05Isabelle Eustace: And I have to say.
- 18:06Isabelle Eustace: For me, it feels a little bit, I just turned, turn this noise.
- 18:10Isabelle Eustace: Oh, sorry.
- 18:11Isabelle Eustace: For me it feels a little bit, um, I kind of feel, I went through all the videos I watched mm-hmm.
- 18:17Isabelle Eustace: And he could be harsh and it's like, oh.
- 18:19Isabelle Eustace: At the beginning I thought like my teacher Rama, he is a son Yassen, like Aho follower.
- 18:25Isabelle Eustace: So they're very used to working with energies again.
- 18:28Isabelle Eustace: And I was always in, or how can you feel this?
- 18:31Isabelle Eustace: But he was gentle.
- 18:33Isabelle Eustace: And Helena could be very, both, both very hard.
- 18:36Isabelle Eustace: I also really liked his humor.
- 18:39Isabelle Eustace: He had this little smile and this little humor and, and I know he, what he's doing, so I kind of feel I know him just through all the, um, constellation I watch and he is such, for me, he really is a priest.
- 18:52Isabelle Eustace: Like he has something so soothing when he talks and when he does his thing.
- 18:57Isabelle Eustace: It's like a serum.
- 18:59Isabelle Eustace: But yeah, I sometimes found him a bit and still, I still sometimes feel a bit harsh in how he deals with these people and how he pushes them.
- 19:08Tracy Cartwright: Gained a lot of followers, but he also made gained a lot of not fans.
- 19:12Tracy Cartwright: What would you call them?
- 19:13Tracy Cartwright: Critics.
- 19:14Tracy Cartwright: Critics,
- 19:14Isabelle Eustace: yeah.
- 19:15Isabelle Eustace: In Germany when he came up, like everybody was, um, criticizing him and he was saying that sometimes the prophets are only, uh, recognized out, out of outside their land.
- 19:25Isabelle Eustace: So not necessarily in Germany, but outside from Germany.
- 19:28Isabelle Eustace: He gets actually acknowledged for his work.
- 19:30Isabelle Eustace: Um, I, he was in the newspapers, especially with his, uh, with his, not to say that the perpetrators can be the greatest victim in Germany.
- 19:39Isabelle Eustace: Really to, and, and, and so see these sentences, but you have no context.
- 19:45Isabelle Eustace: So imagine the journalist, how they run with that.
- 19:47Isabelle Eustace: So he definitely had his critics and the other was incest, not to take the dad in there and give a place to somebody like that.
- 19:55Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, like that's a really hard one to understand if you don't understand the word to really need to include the bad.
- 20:04Isabelle Eustace: Father in a constellation and not cite with the pure, with the poor mother.
- 20:10Isabelle Eustace: And to actually see that some constellation, the mother sends the daughter instead of her like that is uh, that you can't digest that easily.
- 20:19Isabelle Eustace: So there was a lot of critics about it.
- 20:22Tracy Cartwright: Absolutely
- 20:23Isabelle Eustace: calm down.
- 20:24Isabelle Eustace: And then I remember there was one constellation where.
- 20:27Isabelle Eustace: The person in the constellation felt suicidal tendency and he committed suicide later on.
- 20:32Isabelle Eustace: So then hell, I was blamed.
- 20:34Tracy Cartwright: Well, how often does someone go to a.
- 20:37Tracy Cartwright: Psychologist or, or therapist.
- 20:38Tracy Cartwright: And they do that too.
- 20:40Tracy Cartwright: So, you know, it's just because
- 20:41Isabelle Eustace: he's more in the spotlight.
- 20:42Isabelle Eustace: So it was picked up.
- 20:43Isabelle Eustace: Yeah,
- 20:43Tracy Cartwright: absolutely.
- 20:44Tracy Cartwright: Absolutely.
- 20:45Isabelle Eustace: It was in Cologne in 2006 with my teacher that he invited him.
- 20:49Isabelle Eustace: Um, and that was, I watched it on a video.
- 20:51Isabelle Eustace: It was such a cute, uh, intimate, uh, even he and him, it was such an intimate interaction when he was there.
- 20:59Isabelle Eustace: But I was already living in New Zealand.
- 21:01Isabelle Eustace: I sent you a mini clip, I think from the video.
- 21:03Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 21:03Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 21:05Tracy Cartwright: I get, there's quite a bit of information and there's quite a bit of misinformation, and I remember someone right back in the early days, one of my teachers said to me that he was such a private man that he never really spoke too much about his past because it was, for him that was an important, it was more the work that's coming forward.
- 21:24Tracy Cartwright: But what is your understanding?
- 21:25Tracy Cartwright: Because I, from my understanding that he, a young man who went to the war who wanted to be a priest, he went into the war.
- 21:33Tracy Cartwright: He was and then became a prisoner of war.
- 21:36Isabelle Eustace: Yes.
- 21:37Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 21:37Isabelle Eustace: So I just read a biography, which is really worth reading.
- 21:39Isabelle Eustace: I have the picture of, I, I didn't bring the book down, but it's such a nice picture.
- 21:44Isabelle Eustace: I can't remember all the details, but yes, he was a prisoner of war and he could have died three times, but he never died like in the afternoon.
- 21:51Isabelle Eustace: He was definitely in the midst of everything at the front.
- 21:54Isabelle Eustace: And he knows what it means to be a soldier and suffering and prisoner of war.
- 21:59Isabelle Eustace: And I remember his, that he was in this, um, train with everybody else and bought somewhere not so long ago.
- 22:06Isabelle Eustace: I do remember that he was a priest in Germany and uh, they were initially not required to go.
- 22:13Isabelle Eustace: He was in a monastery to the war.
- 22:15Isabelle Eustace: He was not.
- 22:15Isabelle Eustace: And so on.
- 22:17Isabelle Eustace: The later on and later on, they suddenly took these.
- 22:20Isabelle Eustace: Priest of the monastery to also decide, oh, well you have to be a soldier now.
- 22:25Isabelle Eustace: And so I like, I know mostly now of the book, it was always knowledge in the community that he, um, worked as a principal with the Zulus for long and he actually credited a lot of his.
- 22:37Isabelle Eustace: Um, his moving away from the priesthood to the Zulu living, he really rejected, uh, the, the, uh, lots of stuff from the Catholics later on.
- 22:47Isabelle Eustace: Uh, he became very critical of that because No, and I, I, I think his life in Africa was part of that, where he kind of connected to something else outside of the boundary.
- 22:59Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 23:00Tracy Cartwright: Well, they keep the memories, didn't they?
- 23:01Tracy Cartwright: Of, of, yeah.
- 23:03Tracy Cartwright: All of our ancestors, our ancient ancestors will have, would have done in time.
- 23:07Tracy Cartwright: That's diluted or diluted to the point that it's for many.
- 23:12Tracy Cartwright: It's not even well to connect with, but yeah.
- 23:16Tracy Cartwright: Okay, brilliant.
- 23:17Isabelle Eustace: What I do remember is that he used to always, especially at the beginning, he used to always say, okay, it is phenomenological work, so you work with what's there, and he says, normally the man stands there and the woman stands there.
- 23:30Isabelle Eustace: In this case it's different.
- 23:32Isabelle Eustace: And then you would smile.
- 23:34Isabelle Eustace: Or like with my teacher, like for the business, you usually always have a woman there.
- 23:39Isabelle Eustace: If you have a business constellation, the business is always a woman.
- 23:42Isabelle Eustace: And then I was you.
- 23:43Isabelle Eustace: I take a man.
- 23:45Isabelle Eustace: So he kind of had his laws, his, but he always emphasized you work with the energy there.
- 23:52Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 23:52Isabelle Eustace: Have an idea of a skeleton and then you kind of work along if it works or not.
- 23:57Isabelle Eustace: And, and he was always often say, oh, well in this instance there can be two women in this instance that I, I really like that he was very much acknowledging what is
- 24:07Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 24:08Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 24:09Tracy Cartwright: He was very structured at the beginning, wasn't he?
- 24:11Tracy Cartwright: And then it kind of expanded and involved.
- 24:13Tracy Cartwright: I'm still like
- 24:13Isabelle Eustace: that.
- 24:14Isabelle Eustace: I'm still, I think I'm still like that because it helps me to stay focused.
- 24:19Tracy Cartwright: So you say you go to a barbecue or you meet someone at a coffee group for the first time or something.
- 24:25Tracy Cartwright: How do you describe family Constellations to people?
- 24:29Isabelle Eustace: When they ask me what I do, I usually say massage therapist.
- 24:33Isabelle Eustace: It's just the same and not a pins, but, but yeah, it probably changes every time.
- 24:38Isabelle Eustace: But if I kind of think about it, I tend to say it's a modality where you can bring to light hidden dynamic.
- 24:47Isabelle Eustace: Yeah, and with the hidden dynamics, you then have a chance to work on issues.
- 24:53Isabelle Eustace: I usually invite them to kind of feel it, and also I emphasize the systemic part that some, some fellow or some modalities look at systemic connections.
- 25:03Isabelle Eustace: But I really, really believe in systemic connections.
- 25:06Isabelle Eustace: If you want to work with a child which has issues at school, you can't just look at the child.
- 25:12Isabelle Eustace: You have to look at the system the child is in, which is the family and others.
- 25:18Isabelle Eustace: And so this work is, is a really great tool to have a look deeper into the systems.
- 25:24Tracy Cartwright: Beautiful.
- 25:24Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, I was talking with someone yesterday who's, who's working with children but with the system and that's shifting the things with the children.
- 25:33Tracy Cartwright: So I
- 25:33Isabelle Eustace: think that's my passion.
- 25:34Isabelle Eustace: I would really like.
- 25:36Isabelle Eustace: To, to go a little bit into that.
- 25:38Isabelle Eustace: 'cause I really feel for these children where, where everybody looks for the child, but it's like, it's not the child, it's just the symptom being,
- 25:46Tracy Cartwright: and that's, and that was things that, that Bert Hellinger.
- 25:50Tracy Cartwright: Observed, wasn't it?
- 25:51Tracy Cartwright: He observed that with the Zulus.
- 25:53Tracy Cartwright: It was that, you know, if, if, say if a child, the village or the came in front of the village because there was something going on, they were misbehaving or, or had done something, whatever you wanna call it, then they would look.
- 26:06Tracy Cartwright: What's going on around that child?
- 26:08Tracy Cartwright: Where, and what's going on in the village, what's going on in the community, the larger community.
- 26:12Tracy Cartwright: Whereas, uh, Western culture will go, that's a naughty child.
- 26:16Tracy Cartwright: It's needs to be medicated it, you know, like, oh, there's so much more.
- 26:22Tracy Cartwright: So much.
- 26:23Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 26:24Tracy Cartwright: Fascinating.
- 26:25Tracy Cartwright: Do you have a favorite facilitator?
- 26:29Tracy Cartwright: Someone that you follow a lot.
- 26:31Isabelle Eustace: I can't, like, I really like so very close to my heart and I always channel him as Rama just because he's also, but I really enjoy, I really aligned with Susie, Susan, um, uh, you do Ming.
- 26:46Tracy Cartwright: Yes.
- 26:46Isabelle Eustace: At the point, like just her, her energy, her way of that really resonated.
- 26:51Isabelle Eustace: Suzy Tucker I really liked.
- 26:53Tracy Cartwright: Mm-hmm.
- 26:54Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 26:55Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 26:55Tracy Cartwright: I've worked with both of them too.
- 26:56Tracy Cartwright: They're amazing.
- 26:57Isabelle Eustace: They, they really have a energy or know how, how I can Yeah.
- 27:02Isabelle Eustace: Align to
- 27:03Tracy Cartwright: Brilliant, brilliant.
- 27:05Isabelle Eustace: I quite like your energy, but I haven't seen your work yet.
- 27:09Tracy Cartwright: I, I think there's a few that could say that at the intensive, uh, I was due to have to run a workshop on the first day, second day had the opening, and then the second day, and I lost my voice.
- 27:21Tracy Cartwright: Completely.
- 27:23Tracy Cartwright: I had lost my voice and it was a buildup of things, but it was, I mean there was, there's some really good bit, but there was also like, ah, I can't even run a workshop.
- 27:32Tracy Cartwright: I did do a sound bath amazingly enough, and normally I use my voice to tone and, and bring in sound in sound bath, but what I did was I delegated to the, my team and so I had some instruments that I didn't have to use p wind and, and then I got someone to play the wind instruments and I got someone else to use their voice for the toning.
- 27:54Tracy Cartwright: And it was beautiful.
- 27:55Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 27:55Tracy Cartwright: There was a few people saying, I was so looking forward to your workshop.
- 27:58Tracy Cartwright: And it was like, me too.
- 28:00Isabelle Eustace: Actually.
- 28:00Isabelle Eustace: This dramatic side of what you do is starting to attract me.
- 28:03Isabelle Eustace: And I have a, a, a vague feeling that somewhere in my past, I'm discovering now since two years.
- 28:10Isabelle Eustace: Are some witch energies.
- 28:12Isabelle Eustace: 'cause I remember my grandma giving me a book about healing herbs and I for really thought, oh, I want to work with herbs and healing and so on.
- 28:19Isabelle Eustace: And, and now I'm getting really into the sounds and the healing Yeah.
- 28:24Isabelle Eustace: Of, of shamanic energy.
- 28:25Isabelle Eustace: But.
- 28:26Isabelle Eustace: I'm a bit on the Western side as well, thinking it's just too spooky for me.
- 28:30Tracy Cartwright: Oh.
- 28:30Tracy Cartwright: You know, there was a lot of resistance.
- 28:32Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, I know.
- 28:33Tracy Cartwright: Just step into that.
- 28:34Tracy Cartwright: I was like, oh, I don't wanna be seen.
- 28:36Tracy Cartwright: I've already read enough.
- 28:37Tracy Cartwright: Do I wanna be seen?
- 28:38Tracy Cartwright: Like, and it just got more and more, you know, the more I resisted it, the, the bigger it got, like, oh, overwhelming.
- 28:45Tracy Cartwright: And to the point that I had, I ended up with big issues and my thyroid.
- 28:50Tracy Cartwright: 'cause I wasn't.
- 28:51Tracy Cartwright: Letting the sounds out and I wasn't being authentic in myself.
- 28:55Tracy Cartwright: So, uh, yeah, I highly recommend you, you tune in and listen to your body, what it's telling you.
- 29:01Tracy Cartwright: And, and for the drumming for drum, she, this here already.
- 29:03Tracy Cartwright: I did not want to make a drum.
- 29:05Tracy Cartwright: I did not want to play a drum.
- 29:07Tracy Cartwright: Oh, wow.
- 29:08Tracy Cartwright: I'd had beautiful experiences when I was really young.
- 29:11Tracy Cartwright: My cousin was the drummer for Tim and Neil Finn, you know, from Split Ends.
- 29:15Tracy Cartwright: Mm-hmm.
- 29:15Tracy Cartwright: Before they become split ends, they used to practice in my grandmother's garage.
- 29:20Tracy Cartwright: And, um, and I would sneak in.
- 29:22Tracy Cartwright: I was, I was only about four.
- 29:24Tracy Cartwright: I'd sneak in and I'd be hiding behind the, the bales and I'd bring them, and then in the breaks, my cousin would let me go and play on the drums.
- 29:30Tracy Cartwright: I love that.
- 29:31Tracy Cartwright: And then as I got older and I, and I started more on journey, people would say, oh, you are really shaman.
- 29:37Tracy Cartwright: Why don't you play the drum?
- 29:38Tracy Cartwright: And they'd gimme a drum and a circle and stuff.
- 29:40Tracy Cartwright: And I'd go, mm, no, no, no, no.
- 29:42Tracy Cartwright: I didn't wanna own that.
- 29:43Tracy Cartwright: I wasn't owning that label.
- 29:45Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 29:45Tracy Cartwright: Um, I felt like there was so much more that needed to happen and in this lifetime I'm, you know, maybe in another lifetime.
- 29:51Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 29:51Tracy Cartwright: And then one day I woke up.
- 29:53Tracy Cartwright: I had this very clear voice that had said to me, you need to make a drum.
- 29:57Tracy Cartwright: And I was like, what the, I don't wanna make a drum.
- 30:00Tracy Cartwright: But it was, I know there, this, there was particular voices that, that, uh, very clear and I argued with them.
- 30:07Tracy Cartwright: I ended up going outta circles and getting myself into a bit of trouble, so.
- 30:11Tracy Cartwright: So I found a drum drum and made a drum love with it, and then I made another drum and held more circles.
- 30:17Tracy Cartwright: And then now I'm a, I'm a drum doer.
- 30:20Isabelle Eustace: I absolutely love them.
- 30:21Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 30:22Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 30:22Isabelle Eustace: Inspiration.
- 30:23Isabelle Eustace: We'll see when I get that voice.
- 30:25Isabelle Eustace: Or,
- 30:26Tracy Cartwright: or the brock.
- 30:27Tracy Cartwright: Well, it had been the, the voice that had saved many times.
- 30:30Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 30:31Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 30:32Tracy Cartwright: You know, I, I was, uh, living on the edge for a very long time.
- 30:36Tracy Cartwright: Mm-hmm.
- 30:36Tracy Cartwright: And, um, yeah, I had, I had some very close near death experiences, and it was a voice that had kind of made me go, oh, okay, all right, I've gotta go in this direction, or, no, I can't go out here.
- 30:48Tracy Cartwright: Or, okay.
- 30:49Tracy Cartwright: And then something really major catastrophized happen.
- 30:51Tracy Cartwright: So, yeah.
- 30:53Tracy Cartwright: So it was that.
- 30:54Tracy Cartwright: That was also like, this is the direction you're going and make a drum.
- 30:57Tracy Cartwright: Oh, really?
- 30:58Tracy Cartwright: Okay.
- 31:00Tracy Cartwright: I love it.
- 31:01Tracy Cartwright: Seems, seems that life is a little easier when I listen.
- 31:04Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 31:05Tracy Cartwright: And they don't have to yell at me anymore.
- 31:07Tracy Cartwright: All they say.
- 31:08Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 31:08Tracy Cartwright: Beautiful.
- 31:09Tracy Cartwright: Some facilitators have certain, um, themes that they work with a lot.
- 31:15Tracy Cartwright: You know, like some facilitators are trauma specialists or, or they work with addiction or maybe they work with couples or.
- 31:24Tracy Cartwright: Or children, is there you find or that you lean towards or that you find that shows up a lot in your work?
- 31:32Isabelle Eustace: I think it goes through waves and at the moment it's a lot of, of excluded things.
- 31:39Isabelle Eustace: Things which haven't been acknowledged.
- 31:41Isabelle Eustace: And it is a no.
- 31:42Isabelle Eustace: There is, even recently, there is a lot of, um, portrayal energy, if you would call it, and we don't quite know what happened, but it's very clear that something bad happened and then you include the, the victim or the, the part to it.
- 31:57Isabelle Eustace: Suddenly there is healing.
- 31:58Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 31:58Isabelle Eustace: So, yeah.
- 31:59Isabelle Eustace: And funny enough, at the moment there's also abortions a lot.
- 32:05Isabelle Eustace: But yeah, it goes through waves.
- 32:06Isabelle Eustace: I feel, I wouldn't really say there's one, but I kind of have a, a subtle feeling that whatever's in my aura comes kind of to me for a little while.
- 32:18Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 32:19Tracy Cartwright: I'm, I'm often amazed and I dunno why I'm amazed at it.
- 32:21Tracy Cartwright: 'cause it happens how sometimes I can be working through things and then boom, there's a client and then there's the next one's got something.
- 32:29Tracy Cartwright: The next step of that and then the, and we're like, oh, isn't amazing.
- 32:33Tracy Cartwright: You know, I'm feeling into this for them and then I'm showing being shown the next step for myself as well.
- 32:38Isabelle Eustace: And then you have a little moment thinking.
- 32:40Isabelle Eustace: I hope I follow the energy and I didn't bring mine in here and then Yeah.
- 32:46Isabelle Eustace: But it was so clear, the energy of the field.
- 32:48Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 32:48Isabelle Eustace: But, um, I, I love working with groups.
- 32:51Isabelle Eustace: Really love.
- 32:51Isabelle Eustace: That's my passion.
- 32:52Isabelle Eustace: I love working with groups because I also, first of all, I can stay out of the energy more and guided more.
- 32:58Isabelle Eustace: So when I do one-to-one, I kind of step into the places and out and in.
- 33:02Isabelle Eustace: But then I get slight moments where I think, oh no, I have just worked on that.
- 33:07Isabelle Eustace: It's strange that it comes up in this consolation again and in groups it's, I trust a bit more.
- 33:14Isabelle Eustace: It's so awesome what these people give you.
- 33:16Isabelle Eustace: It is like, oh my God, it is so on the spot.
- 33:18Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, absolutely.
- 33:19Tracy Cartwright: So you hold groups in Nelson.
- 33:22Tracy Cartwright: Do you wanna share a little bit about that for the listeners?
- 33:24Tracy Cartwright: For if there's anyone down there that's to, to get hold of
- 33:27Isabelle Eustace: you?
- 33:27Isabelle Eustace: Uh, yeah.
- 33:27Isabelle Eustace: So I have my next one on the 2nd of August.
- 33:30Isabelle Eustace: It's just a day workshop.
- 33:31Isabelle Eustace: I used to do a little bit, um, just introduction evenings, just to get a little bit no of an idea.
- 33:37Isabelle Eustace: And, and also price is always issue and there little introduction, I could do them quite cheap and people get a bit of an idea what we are working with.
- 33:45Isabelle Eustace: Um, and so that it kind of has a little bit more, um.
- 33:49Isabelle Eustace: Profile, so it kind of ripples along.
- 33:51Isabelle Eustace: And so, um, the 2nd of August, yeah, it's, uh, a day workshop here, right in town at the Chorus Center.
- 33:58Isabelle Eustace: And then my weekend workshop is on the, I think it's the ninth, 10th, 11th of November.
- 34:04Isabelle Eustace: We'll probably do most likely Friday evenings as a check in.
- 34:08Isabelle Eustace: And then Saturday, Sunday.
- 34:09Tracy Cartwright: Wonderful.
- 34:10Tracy Cartwright: And so if someone wanted to get hold of you, how would they do that?
- 34:13Tracy Cartwright: Yeah,
- 34:13Isabelle Eustace: at the moment it's based my email address because I'm working with a lady on my, I thought I had a domain name and had it all on the way and suddenly something else pops up.
- 34:22Isabelle Eustace: So I'm working on my website because the domain name I wanted and paid for for three years seems to be hosting something else.
- 34:29Isabelle Eustace: And I said, oh, I can't deal with it now, but I'm dealing with it.
- 34:32Isabelle Eustace: So no website at the moment.
- 34:34Isabelle Eustace: Uh, and so email would be Nelson constellation@gmail.com.
- 34:39Isabelle Eustace: Fantastic.
- 34:39Tracy Cartwright: Fantastic.
- 34:42Tracy Cartwright: Gosh, it is ING an hour already.
- 34:44Tracy Cartwright: Can't believe it's just gone so fast.
- 34:46Tracy Cartwright: Is there anything that you would suggest to people.
- 34:51Tracy Cartwright: Something that they could do at home, something that they could a little practice or, or not.
- 34:57Tracy Cartwright: I don't know if that's something that you do offer people.
- 34:59Isabelle Eustace: It's an interesting question.
- 35:02Isabelle Eustace: That's an interesting question and I bounce in between that for often.
- 35:06Isabelle Eustace: 'cause now we are all constellated so we could kind of consulate our own stuff and every very rarely I do it, but very often I go into this Ner Hellness.
- 35:17Isabelle Eustace: Like agree with what's it, don't think you need to do something.
- 35:21Isabelle Eustace: I'm very often in between.
- 35:23Isabelle Eustace: Why do I actually like, no, I, I use a v actually very rarely.
- 35:29Isabelle Eustace: I'm very, and I'm, I still don't quite have an answer.
- 35:32Isabelle Eustace: Why?
- 35:32Isabelle Eustace: When I do, it's quite enlightening usually, but kind of, I don't know.
- 35:37Isabelle Eustace: I kind of still have the feeling of.
- 35:39Isabelle Eustace: Not diluting it too much.
- 35:41Isabelle Eustace: I dunno.
- 35:42Isabelle Eustace: It's my feeling.
- 35:43Isabelle Eustace: I, I know there's judgment in this.
- 35:45Tracy Cartwright: No judgment.
- 35:46Tracy Cartwright: Is it your judgment?
- 35:47Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:47Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:47Isabelle Eustace: Probably.
- 35:48Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:48Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:48Isabelle Eustace: Why?
- 35:49Isabelle Eustace: Why I'm not using it.
- 35:51Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:51Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 35:52Isabelle Eustace: And I'm also now noticing that I'm only just slightly starting to use, um, resources.
- 36:01Isabelle Eustace: Linga was very pure with his interrupted movements and he, like, in the early days, he never resourced.
- 36:08Isabelle Eustace: Then I learned the, the, the ness and the niceness of resourcing through the international Constellation community.
- 36:16Isabelle Eustace: And, and I, I, I know how nice it can be, and then I catch myself all the time staying there, hanging out and not resourcing and waiting for this live energy to do it or to just hold the space.
- 36:31Isabelle Eustace: And it's like, why have I not resourced again?
- 36:34Isabelle Eustace: I could have put something nice in there.
- 36:36Isabelle Eustace: And I kind of have the feeling it's probably the same thing.
- 36:40Isabelle Eustace: I can't even, that's a really interesting question I'm pregnant with.
- 36:44Isabelle Eustace: I don't, is the answer.
- 36:46Isabelle Eustace: I don't, when I finish a constellation, I usually tell them, this picture you have and this feeling you have, just take it with you the next seven evenings and just feel into that and just meditate into that.
- 36:57Isabelle Eustace: So that's what I do,
- 37:00Tracy Cartwright: but otherwise I don't.
- 37:02Tracy Cartwright: Do you invite them to.
- 37:05Tracy Cartwright: So I would say to someone not to think about it for a week, not to talk about it, not share it.
- 37:10Tracy Cartwright: Or if you think, if you think about the session that we've had and you, and you try to analyze it and pull it apart.
- 37:16Tracy Cartwright: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 37:17Tracy Cartwright: Don't do that.
- 37:18Tracy Cartwright: Find another way.
- 37:19Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 37:19Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 37:20Tracy Cartwright: Be I say to them, think of ice cream flavors.
- 37:23Tracy Cartwright: Colors, yeah.
- 37:24Tracy Cartwright: Name them too.
- 37:25Tracy Cartwright: Fruity, hokey pokey, chocolate chip, whatever.
- 37:29Tracy Cartwright: Something to keep your mind out of pulling the constellation apart.
- 37:33Tracy Cartwright: And then the reason not to think about it is not to talk about it is'cause, not 'cause it's a secret, but.
- 37:40Tracy Cartwright: Because it allows it to settle.
- 37:41Tracy Cartwright: Right.
- 37:42Tracy Cartwright: Gives your feel a little bit of time.
- 37:44Tracy Cartwright: Is that, how would you describe that to people?
- 37:46Tracy Cartwright: Ms? Yeah.
- 37:46Isabelle Eustace: I have two parts in that, and often, very often there's a confusion because they cannot understand what happened there.
- 37:54Isabelle Eustace: If it's a secret in the field, which I really seem to have a lot, and if you have addiction and then suddenly it goes to something I, they have no idea what it was, but you can see that the energy is there.
- 38:05Isabelle Eustace: Then they're all confused.
- 38:06Isabelle Eustace: And I say to them, Halen, I said, it's really awesome to be confused because then you have a chance for something new to come up.
- 38:12Tracy Cartwright: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- 38:14Isabelle Eustace: So I usually just say, hang out with the confusion.
- 38:16Isabelle Eustace: Try not to put it in a box.
- 38:18Isabelle Eustace: I try to embrace it as something good because now you opened a lit to something and something new can get created.
- 38:24Isabelle Eustace: I try for them to not, uh, talk too much about it because you diffuse the energy, but I really try to hold them to the healing picture.
- 38:33Isabelle Eustace: And the healing emulsion.
- 38:35Tracy Cartwright: So
- 38:36Isabelle Eustace: if you felt the power you felt when you turned around and you looked into life, hold that feed into that for seven days in a row.
- 38:44Tracy Cartwright: Yeah.
- 38:44Tracy Cartwright: Or
- 38:45Isabelle Eustace: the healing picture.
- 38:46Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 38:46Isabelle Eustace: To see, oh, this is the order of my family.
- 38:49Isabelle Eustace: This is how my family looks and fears.
- 38:51Isabelle Eustace: Oh, when it's in order.
- 38:53Isabelle Eustace: Yeah.
- 38:54Isabelle Eustace: I say to them, just take that with you and just feel it for the next seven days.
- 38:58Isabelle Eustace: Don't do anything with it.
- 38:59Isabelle Eustace: Just feel it.
- 39:00Isabelle Eustace: That's your healing movement.
- 39:02Tracy Cartwright: Oh, brilliant.
- 39:03Tracy Cartwright: That's very cool.
- 39:04Tracy Cartwright: I think we'll have, we'll leave it there.
