HYPNATAL BIRTHING

Hypnobirthing is an evidence-based form of antenatal education that combines learning about birth physiology, your choices/options and practical tools to lead to a positive, empowered and enjoyable birth experience. I teach private 1:1 and group hypnobirthing courses and workshop to prepare expectant parents for this life-changing birth experience. There is so much that you can do to influence how your labour progresses, from how your birth environment is set up, to knowing the right questions to ask to make informed decisions for you, to deep relaxation and breathing techniques to get you into your own little birth bubble, to reduce fears and anxieties and ensure you go into labour feeling calm, confident, empower, and excited!

Nowadays in our culture there is so much fear around childbirth, from what we see on TV/films, read in the media and hear from well-meaning friends and family telling you their horror birth stories. The more fearful you go into labour, the more tense you and your body will be, and therefore the more intense the feeling of labour will be. In my courses we will work to remove that fear by retraining your mind and educating you on what is going on during birth. By the end of my course my hope is that you will feel excited about birth and not fearful!

Hypnobirthing is a way of preparing for any birth, no matter where or how you birth your baby. There is no ‘failing’ hypnobirthing; all the knowledge, tools and techniques you gain in my course will leave you feeling empowered, confident and excited for your baby’s birth day.

Even if your birth ends up taking a totally different route to what you had planned, you made an informed decision based on weighing up all the information you had in your toolbox.
