Science confirms it: healing the past is possible!

What does science say about inherited trauma?

✨ Trauma lives in the body. And sometimes... it isn’t even ours.

Science is beginning to confirm what Systemic Constellations have shown for a long time: traumas experienced by our ancestors can be passed down through generations — not only through stories, but also in our bodies, our behaviours, and even our biology.

🧬 Epigenetics shows that intense life experiences — like war, persecution, or grief — can alter the way our genes are expressed.

📚 A study with descendants of Holocaust survivors (Yehuda et al., 2016) revealed changes in genes related to stress response.

🧪 And in a study with mice (Dias & Ressler, 2013), a fear associated with a specific smell was passed down to the third generation.

✨ Science now confirms that emotional and environmental trauma can indeed cross generations — and that therapeutic practices help recover and reorganise these inherited memories.

✨ Innerdance, Systemic Constellations, and somatic approaches help us access, feel, and release what was never spoken — nor lived by us.

By acknowledging it, something shifts.

By healing it, we free not only ourselves… but also those who came before — and those yet to come.

🌌 Because everything is connected. And healing is always collective.
