The Experimental workshop "Redefining My History: A Door to the Future" (facilitated by Yianna Yiamarelou and Despina Balliou) which took place on 18,19 and 20 October 2019 in Karapanou House, one of the most beautiful mansions on the island of Aegina, reached its completion with great success and a plethora of emotions.

Stereotypes, roles, myths, alliances, mixed messages, patterns, life attitudes, principles and values, sources of energy and support: where do they come from and how are they transmitted from generation to generation in our personal history? How do they activate us? Do they give us a sense of identity or do they bind us? How do family bonds become binding? How do the lines joining us become invisible nets that trap us?

In this workshop, family maps (genograms) unfolded and were redefined, allowing new foundations and perspectives on life to emerge.
