Taller vivencial en Los Portales con Rosalie Poskin La energía que atraviesa nuestros sueños aporta informaciones sobre todas las dimensiones de nuestro Ser. En ellos se muestran nuestros obstáculos, pero también nuestros potenciales y tesoros. Las constelaciones nos ponen ante los condicionantes heredados de la familia y nos permiten restablecer el orden para que toda la energía de vida y el amor de nuestro árbol fluya hasta nosotros. El trabajo combinado de sueños y constelaciones nos pone en las manos informaciones muy valiosas para resolver problemas, dudas y crear nuestra realidad en armonía con nuestros deseos más profundos.
