Have you got a newborn scrunch?
You what i mean! That beautiful, curled up, squishy and scrunched up little new human, knees to chest, fists by cheeks, spine still remembering the shape of the womb. It's called physiological flexion, and it's your baby's whole world for those first weeks earthside.
Part of my job (and to be perfectly honest, one of my FAVOURITE parts of this work) is gently helping them release that tension, softening what the womb imposed, so those tiny arms and legs can slowly unfurl into this big, bright world they're now held in. Out of the curl, and into your arms.
This is where my passion for nervous system regulation always begins.... right here, in the cradle, with the littlest nervous systems on the planet. Because before we can build regulated communities, we start by supporting these tiny humans (and the mamas holding them) from day one.
In the Nurtured Newborn Circle, we go slow. We learn in-depth massage and movement techniques to release tension in baby's body, and just as importantly, we learn to release tension in ours too. Empowering new mamas, regulating together, hand in hand.
Theres only 3 spots left for next week's circle.
So if you're ready to learn how to support your baby's body (and your own nervous system) through these tender postpartum days and beyond, come sit in circle with us.
