Hi Vinay
I assume you know "constellations in the mind". You could start out by doing a
resourcing constellation. You asked them how they are feeling right now, or
about the course. Then you ask them to think of a (or more) resources, like
people they know, internal states, activities, etc. and place them next to them
or behind them or wherever it feels appropriate to give them strength. Then you
check in with each individual, or the group and notice how they are doing now.
Maybe they could borrow or swap resources, give each other ideas of what worked
for them, how and why.
Find out if there is a way to increase the field for the entire group. What
might they have in common...
I am so glad you are doing this, this is exciting,

Hi Vinay, Have you ever done constellations long distance? - there are lot's
of methods to do this - some have already been mentioned. If so then it is
not so difficult to choose someone from the group who might be interested in
doing a short piece and using whatever method you currently use to
demonstrate the work. I would think it is important to have an agreement on
confidentiality.
Michael Reddy www.reddyworks.com and Dan Booth Cohen hiddensolution.com have
done constellations online with groups. I'm sure they would be great
resources.
If I were in a similar situation I might use visualization to do a simple
exercise with the entire group. Perhaps calling in a few of their close
ancestors and seeing how they appear. Have them do something simple like
express their appreciation for the life they have been given, then prompt
them to see how this changes the field and what their somatic experience is
of that. Perhaps have each one of them call in a resource (or something that
will support the ancestors) and see what their somatic experience is of that.
It would need to be a pretty simple demonstration but perhaps it would give
each person an experiential sense of this work. AND it could open the door to
lot's of process which may not be appropriate to deal with in the class. I
would want to be conscious of that.
I would think the power of the work would come out by a few people sharing
their experience. this is where the synchronicity and magic start to show
themselves.
Blessings on your course. What a great opportunity to share the wonder of
this work.

You could do a demonstration using figurines or pieces of paper. Choose one
person in the class who wants to work on a simple topic such as their
relationship to money or love.
That way they can see it in action, watching you step into the piece of paper
and compare the theory with what they're witnessing.
Hope this is useful.

Can you find people who practise at or near the locations of the students and
engage them in some way to provide an experiential component. Or, do it
yourself with each of the individuals via skype and using something like Jane
Petersen's Relationchips? There are a few people out there doing that.

Thanks folks - just to clarify.
This is just one unit - not attempting a whole lot more. We do have one
‘meet’ by video hookup - the person who is talking - their video shows up on
everyone’s screen. Thats the one 4-hour class. The rest is their homework, an
essay, a concept map on the subject, and an online (message board) discussion
they have with each other over a period of 2 or 3 weeks, based on some topics
of conversation I provide.
Yes, I agree, its crazy to think of presenting theory without a significant
experiential component. Thats what I am trying to nut out. How to do that
with a dozen people, each sitting in a different part of the country (and the
world) on their individual computer, necessarily glued to the screen. Its a
challenge!
