When Life Comes to a Halt. Trauma, Attachment, and Family Constellation

«When Life Comes to a Halt» — a book about trauma and how to become stronger after experiencing loss. Swagito Liebermeister, a spiritual teacher and psychotherapist, went through the death of his wife. At first, the author could not come to terms with his grief and saw no meaning in his life, but eventually, he managed to accept the loss and even transform the painful experience into something beneficial for his spiritual path.
The book is intended to help readers who are experiencing strong upheavals. Swagito Liebermeister shares how to cope with pain that seems insurmountable, as he himself once did. In the book, the author reflects on the nature of trauma, shares methods for healing from it, and presents practices and exercises that will help overcome despair.
The leading approach in Swagito Liebermeister's work is the method of family constellations. Practitioners assert that constellations can break the cycle of repeating and interconnected problems in a person's life and the lives of their loved ones, which may have been caused by events from the distant past or disruption of social roles within the family.
