HypnoBirthing is taught in a series of 5 classes. All the tools, techniques and strategies you learn are designed to help you turn your birthing over to your "birthing body" and thus create a calm, easier and more comfortable birth for you and your baby.
You
will learn:
- Everything you need to know to achieve a safer, easier and more comfortable birth.

- Why labor hurts and why it doesn’t have to.
- How to release fear, the enemy of labor.
- Techniques of deep relaxation to help you eliminate the Fear-Tension-Pain Syndrome.
- How your body is naturally designed to conceive, nurture and birth your baby with ease and comfort. You will gain an understanding of the stages of labor.
- To create your body’s own natural relaxant, the only safe labor enhancement.
- Natural ways to bring your body into labor without artificial chemical induction, as well as preparation to avoid episiotomy.
- How you and your birthing companion can create a birthing environment that is calm, serene and joyful, rather than tense and stressful.
- Gentle birthing techniques that allow you to breathe your baby into the world without the violence of hard physical pushing.
- To use your natural birthing instincts to birth your baby in a way that most mirrors the way that nature intended.
- How to release old fears and beliefs so they do not interfere with your calm birth.
