Some of the most meaningful journeys begin with a cup of tea.
Mother Heart Circles
Where women gather to come home to the Mother Heart
There are moments when something in your heart says: I want to be here.
A longing to come together. To listen, to share, to remember, and to make space for what is alive within you — because you can feel that something is awakening.
From Thirteen Remembrances from the Mother Heart, the Mother Heart Circles were born: intimate gatherings of women held in the warmth of a home, hosted by a woman who opens both her home and her heart to receive them.
The book is the foundation and inspiration for these gatherings. It is beautiful if you have read it beforehand, but it is not a requirement to join a circle. You do not need to know anything or prepare anything.
You are welcome exactly as you are.
Hearth Keeper
The woman who opens her home
Perhaps you feel a longing to host a Mother Heart Circle yourself. You become the Hearth Keeper.
The word hearth refers to the fireplace or hearth — the place where people have gathered throughout the ages to share warmth, food, stories and a sense of belonging. It lives close to the word heart. These two meanings come together in the Mother Heart Circles.
This is the role of a Hearth Keeper: to keep the fire burning, so that others feel welcome and are invited to come home.
You do not need any experience with women’s circles. You do not need to be a ‘perfect hostess’, and you do not need to organise anything.
You simply open your home to a group of women you would love to invite.
From there, we find a date together and sense into how many women feel called to join. A small group can be just as meaningful as a larger one. The size of the circle is simply guided by your home and by what feels natural.
You offer the place.
I come and hold the circle.
And together, we receive whatever wants to unfold that day.
The Beloved Daughter
The woman who is invited
Perhaps you hear about a Mother Heart Circle through a friend. Or perhaps you have read Thirteen Remembrances from the Mother Heart yourself and came across the invitation…
Maybe you immediately feel a yes.
Maybe you are simply curious.
Maybe you only understand afterwards why you needed to be there.
There is space for women with different stories, experiences and seasons of life. We come together as we are and listen to what is alive within us.
The book Thirteen Remembrances from the Mother Heart will be available during the circle for those who feel called to take it home with them.
A simple contribution
The contribution for a Mother Heart Circle is €33 per woman.
All teachings and prayers are offered as a Gift from the Mother Heart. Your contribution simply helps to support the practical foundation of these gatherings: my travel time, transportation, preparation and presence.
When a circle takes place further away, we can look together at what is needed to support the journey as well.
The women also share in creating the table together. Whoever feels called may bring something small to share: fruit, dates, something delicious, or something you have baked yourself.
Nothing is required. It will unfold naturally.
A movement that is allowed to unfold
I do not know how many Mother Heart Circles there will be.
Perhaps a woman opens her home just once. Perhaps a group of women begins to gather regularly. Perhaps the circle travels from one home to another.
Perhaps, one day, a larger celebration will emerge in a church or another sacred place.
We do not need to know that today.
A Mother Heart Circle begins simply.
A woman opens her door.
A group of women says yes.
And I come.
With my book, my stories, my prayer and my presence.
And then, together, we discover what wants to emerge.
Welcome.
Into your home.
Into your heart.
Into the Mother Heart.
Perhaps you are one of the women who has been feeling the call to gather.
