HypnoBirthing® - Taking the birthing world by calm
“HypnoBirthing® gave me the most priceless gift – a childbirth experience that was free of fear.” Parent Testimonial ( view more testimonials)
Returning birthing to a calm, beautiful and peaceful experience
For most of their lives, women have been inundated with the negative stories of other women’s birth experiences. Everyone, from their mother, sisters, aunts, cousins, friends, and even strangers, wants to tell them the horrors of giving birth. They have been conditioned to believe that excruciating pain is associated with birth; and because of this, women today hold an unprecedented fear of giving birth. This extreme fear causes their bodies to become tense, and that tension often prevents them from easily performing the normal, physiological function of birth. The result? – exactly what they feared most – long, painful, disappointing births.

Through a very simple programme of self-hypnosis and education, women learn to release emotions tied to fear-based stories and misinformation, or previous bad experiences, and they are helped to see birth as normal. They learn to trust that their bodies know how to bring their babies into the world in the calm, gentle way that nature intended.
When a woman is properly prepared for childbirth and when body and mind are in harmony, nature is free to function in the same well designed manner as it does for animal mothers in nature.
During the course of HypnoBirthing® classes you will be shown HypnoBirthing® films showing labouring mothers who are awake, alert and in good humour as they experience the kind of gentle birth that you too can know when you are free of the fear that causes pain and tension. Through self-hypnosis, special breathing and visualisation HypnoBirthing teaches you to release all prior programming about birth and how to trust your body and work with it. It also teaches you how to free yourself of harmful emotions that lead to pain-causing fear and unyielding muscles.
HypnoBirthing® will teach you the art of using your own natural birthing instincts. With HypnoBirthing® you will not be in a sleep or trance state. You will be fully aware and fully in control but profoundly relaxed.
