Aitabé is a Family & Systemic Constellations facilitator and the creator of Sensethinking, an embodied approach to education that is inspired by constellation work. 

 

Aitabé had been teaching high school for over a decade when she found Family Constellation work. As she shares in her e-book, Sensethinking: A Pedagogy for a New Paradigm, discovering constellation work changed the direction of her life. The question that arose for her after her first constellation workshop was: if this is possible, what else is possible? Working with teens and her own children, she developed the Five Dimensions of Inquiry framework for applying systemic constellation work in education. Now she trains other educators to step into their essential role of awakening the whole-body intelligence of every learner.

The Field: In Family Constellation Work, "the field" refers to felt-sense access to consciousness in which the dynamics and relationships within a family system are explored and understood. This concept is rooted in the idea that there is an interconnectedness and energy that flows between family members, impacting their behaviors, emotions, and relationships. The field is believed to hold information about an individual's and family's history, unresolved traumas, and hidden dynamics, which can be revealed and addressed through the Constellation process.

"Maslow before Bloom": The idea is that the hierarchy of needs have to be met before students can meet educational goals.

It's also used as a personal healing practice, emphasizing taking responsibility for one's experiences and seeking inner peace through forgiveness.
