Hypnobirthing is a childbirth preparation method that uses self-hypnosis, deep relaxation, and breathing techniques to manage pain and fear during labour and delivery.

 

The idea is that by managing levels of stress hormones, you can give yourself the best chance of allowing the body's in-built system to set you up for a good birth. Techniques are simple and adaptable to all people and different birth situations, you don't need to have any skills already.

 

This course is guided by Emilie, a doula, antenatal and yoga teacher with over 15 years experience of working with birthing families. We'll talk about how the mind and body work together in ways that help you understand what's happening when and why.
