We’re happy to share this upcoming 5-day workshop retreat with Svarup, Healing the Inner Teenager – The Quest for Passion, May 28–June 1, 2027 in Upstate New York. A journey to reconnect with the passion, curiosity, aliveness and longing of our adolescent self, and to bring that energy into our life today.
-
This process guides you through your adolescence, healing the wounds of that time and retrieving the qualities that are the essence of a healthy teenage.
The awakening sexual energy of a teenager is a gift. It is not only a potential source of physical pleasure. It also makes life an adventure and eventually a search.Healing and embracing your inner adolescent now, as an adult, will bring back into your present life a sense of daring to go beyond what is familiar routine. It will create the space for something new in your life.
We will explore themes such as:
the inner relationship between your adult and your adolescent
the original longing of the teenager in youthe family dynamics and conditionings of that time
shame, revenge and forgivenessred passion and golden merging
the connection with the same sex
the meeting with the opposite sex
meditation and breathing techniques to reconnect with the natural flow of male and female energy in your body

What does it mean to live a life that genuinely resonates with who we are?
In this workshop, we will explore together how to acknowledge the parts of ourselves that feel most difficult, and rediscover the love that can emerge through being present and available to them.
Through meditation, guided inquiry, and systemic constellations, we will deepen our relationship with the body and recognize the unconscious patterns that shape our lives.
As we begin to align more deeply with the natural flow of life, we become more available to ourselves — freer to move toward a new path guided by love, joy, and inner truth.
Looking forward to sharing this space together.

We invite you to a one-day Family Constellation workshop—a collective healing process that brings light to hidden dynamics shaping our lives and relationships, restoring balance and a deeper sense of belonging in the web of life.
-
Many of the challenges we face are not only our own—they often reach back through generations as echoes of loss, exclusion, or unspoken pain carried within the family system. Out of love or loyalty, parts of us may unconsciously hold these patterns, even when they cause suffering or keep us from moving forward.
Family Constellation offers a gentle yet profound way to bring these hidden dynamics to light. By exploring the larger family and ancestral field, we can acknowledge what has been unseen or excluded, allowing love and order to be restored. As the system finds balance, we experience greater ease, belonging, and freedom in the flow of life.
In this one-day workshop, you are invited to:
• Explore the unseen influences that shape your relationships, health, and sense of belonging
• Recognize patterns that no longer serve and release burdens that were never yours to carry
• Reconnect with the strength and love that flow from your ancestors
• Experience the deep peace that comes from taking your rightful place in the family system
Whether you come to explore your own constellation or to participate as a representative, the work touches everyone in the circle. Each constellation becomes a mirror for our shared humanity and reminds us that when love finds its natural order, healing follows. Simply being present—whether observing, representing, or joining group exercises—offers equal value. We’ll follow the moment and work with those most called to explore.
About facilitators:
Ere Sakamoto and Nicholas Waterfall are certified Family Constellations facilitators trained with Suzi Tucker through the Bert Hellinger Institute USA.
Together, they create a grounded and carefully held field where hidden family dynamics can gently surface and reorganize. Their work integrates systemic constellation principles with somatic awareness, meditation, and embodied presence.
Ere brings over 15 years of trauma-informed healing experience, including CranioSacral Therapy, SomatoEmotional Release, and primal therapy, supporting nervous system safety and deep body listening. Nicholas brings decades of meditation facilitation and professional acting training in Ireland and New York, offering clarity, attunement, and embodied presence to the constellation process.
They are co-founders of Padma NYC, a holistic and meditation center in Union Square, New York. Although the physical space closed during the pandemic, their shared work continues — gathering those who feel called to explore ancestral patterns, reclaim belonging, and move toward greater inner freedom.

Unresolved trauma—whether from early life or passed down through generations—shapes how we see the world, how safe we feel in our own bodies, and how deeply we can connect with others. These patterns are often unconscious. A part of us may hold on to them for survival or out of loyalty to our family system, even when they cause pain or keep us stuck.
Family Constellations offers a gentle yet profound way to bring these hidden dynamics to light. By exploring the larger family and ancestral field, we can acknowledge what has been unseen or excluded, allowing love and order to be restored.

In this moment of crisis and transformation, it is fundamental to be conscious of our past oriented reactiveness and to come back to the here and now, where our true potential can unfold.
Our sadness, fear, anger and numbness have deep roots in our early life history, and they often get triggered and played out in the present. This is just because all these feelings are buried and denied inside us, and they ask for completion: they need to be recognized, understood and transformed.
Our lightness of being, our joy and creativity also have deep roots in our past. We did experience these qualities in our childhood, but we lost touch with them because nobody around could fully recognize them in their essential value.
In this group you will be accompanied step by step back in time, through the stages of your development, recovering parts of yourself at each stage. You will be guided to reconnect with the child in you, learning again to listen to its needs and longings. You will discover the adult part in you that can take care of this child and appreciate its qualities and how they can transform your life now. You will be supported to express and release old emotions that block the flow of vitality in your body. You will explore your family setup with depth and compassion, completing what has remained unfinished. You will experience the difference between a past oriented reaction and a mature response to the present.
Healing the inner child is a profound step toward reclaiming your true potential and celebrating the freedom of being fully yourself.
For attendance to this group, it is advisable to have previous experience in some kind of inner work such as meditation and breath work.
For the whole duration of the group the participants will be asked to refrain from any direct contact with the outside world.

In this group you will experiment with finding a new maturity, a new dance between going inside yourself and going beyond your usual limits.

We all need privacy, to rest, to feel ourselves, to cultivate our dreams. To simply have space. For this, we need to be able to feel and learn to respect the boundaries of our space. We need to be able to feel how far we want to open them to someone and yet remain connected with ourselves.
But we all know the challenges around setting our boundaries.
There is a history: when we were small children, our boundaries were invaded and ignored one way or another, in the family, at school, etc. To survive these invasions, we learnt either to shrink our space or to put rigid walls around ourselves.
Now, as adults, we need to learn to create new flexible boundaries, which can allow both intimacy and respect for each other's space and feelings.
In this group you will experiment with finding a new maturity, a new dance between going inside yourself and going beyond your usual limits.
