Hypnobirthing encourages you to get curious about what is happening to your mind and body in labour and arms you with a tool kit of techniques designed to help you meet birth feeling calm, confident and in control.
​
Yes it’s all the things you may have heard about; breathing techniques, visualisations, affirmations, fear releasing, anchors, relaxation, hypnobirthing tracks – we will delve deep into each of these as part of the course. But these techniques work best when we understand what is going on in the brain and body.
​
​Birth can be unpredictable but there is plenty we can do to prepare for it. Connecting to your self-trust, building your knowledge, getting a grasp of the maternity system and placing any decision-making power firmly with you and your birth partner is going to serve you so well, however your birth unfolds.​
