THE HEART'S MYSTERY

Held Together is a gentle, baby-led weekly circle for mothers and babies in the early months, held in Petersfield.

It offers a calm, contained space to slow down and settle together — without pressure to keep up, perform, or do things "right".This is a drop-in circle — come once, come every week, or come when it feels right. Every Monday stands alone, and there's nothing to catch up on.

Sessions move at the baby's pace, with space to pause, feed, rest, move, or simply be. Babies are welcome to sleep, fuss, stretch, or be held at any time.

Sessions may gently include simple baby massage (demonstrated slowly, always optional), rebozo-inspired self-massage to support your own body, guided breath and relaxation for mothers, and gentle humming or lullabies. Everything offered is adaptable, and observation is always enough.The circle is suitable for mothers with babies from around 6 weeks to pre-crawling (approximately 6 months).

Groups are kept small (maximum 6 mother–baby pairs) to maintain a calm, supportive atmosphere.

This is not a class to keep up with. It is a space to arrive, be supported, and build confidence gently — at your own pace, in your own time.

Mothers are held without instruction or judgement.

Alongside the weekly circle, Held 1:1 is also available — a private, one-to-one version of the same work for mothers who prefer a quieter or more personalised setting.
