Your thoughts are your prayers. [Ralph Waldo Emerson]

If you want to reconstruct your life, recondition your thoughts.   

In 2006 a good friend of mine told me about a kind of a shrink that she had seen, "it was just unbelievable! you gotta check that out." and although I was more than skeptical about sitting together with a few more peace seeking goofs waiting for a guru to tell us how to live our desperate lives I went there and, believe it or not, was profoundly touched by a very physical experience that made a tremendous mental impact. I am still skeptical though; there are too many shamans, priests and other sales men out there that want to sell an apple for an orange. The past few years gave nevertheless some time to experiment and consolidate my own ideas about what had happened back then and what happens every time that I apply this technique. Still, my legal mind set has difficulties with slipping into that wacko new age terminology plus way of thinking.

The basis concept - in my interpretation - is that we are all part of different systems, whether they are organisms or organizations, microcosms or macrocosms. And all these systems have a physical nature, that is a certain energy correlation. This energy correlation can be projected into a space which can be made accessible for individuals interested in learning more about the system in question. No matter how abstract or concrete the system is described, once representation of defined system stakeholders has started, the actual system starts to build up in the projected space. Personal, organizational, political, sociological, economical questions can thereby be remodeled and analyzed in a bird‘s view perspective. System solutions therefore function as a powerful consulting tool and repetitive participation in such consulting sessions increase one‘s sense of intuition. Based on the idea that the systems that we live in, shape to a large extent the way we think, we have to understand the dynamics of these systems, rethink them and then reconstruct the systems in more appropriate ways.

In the following subpages I would like to provide some information on basic definitions and techniques, as well as some records on prior consulting sessions. All names have been changed. Contact me if you want to know more.
