HypnoBirthingprepares and empowers
you with confidence so that you can experience birthing your baby with calm,
relaxed expectation and joy.Regardless of the length of your labor, the skills you’ll learn and
practice will allow you to remain comfortable, relaxed and energized
throughout. This means that when it is time for your baby to be born, you will
be fully aware and involved.
HypnoBirthing®is a unique method of relaxed, natural
childbirth education, enhanced by self-hypnosis techniques. HypnoBirthing®provides the missing link that allows women to use their natural
instincts to bring about a safer, easier, more comfortable birthing. Emphasis
is placed on pregnancy and childbirth, as well as on pre-birth parenting and
the consciousness of the pre-born baby.It is presented in a series of five, 2 1/2-hour classes or a series of
four, 3-hour classes.
Here's
just some of what you will learn:
The basic physiology of birth: how the uterus functions
and the adverse effect fear has upon the chemical and physiological
responses of your body.
How the mother's body is designed to work in harmony with
nature… understanding that when your mind is free of fear and tension your
body can be free of pain and will function as it was created to do.
How to free your mind of fear and tension so that the
birth of your baby can be the beautiful, peaceful experience nature
intended.
How to thoroughly prepare psychologically and
physically for having the best possible experience of childbirth.
The importance of remaining relaxed and calm and
managing situations that unsettle you and stress you out - a skill that
will not only ensure a calm and gentle birth, but bring calm into your
everyday life.
How to identify emotional stress and release it before
your baby’s birth.
The importance of the words you use, and the significance
of your beliefs around pregnancy and birthing.
How to use simple but effect techniques including
visualization, self hypnosis, special breathing exercises, relaxation and
other techniques that will produce a shorter, more comfortable birth experience.
How to create and control the body's own natural
relaxant.
Where the myths that pain must accompany normal
birthing came from.
Why women in other cultures birth their babies almost
entirely free of discomfort.
How you and your birthing companion can create a
birthing environment that is calm, serene, and joyful rather than tense or
stressful and the importance of bonding with your baby before and after
birth.
