Hypnobirthing

What is hypnobirthing?

What is Hypnobirthing? Hypnobirthing is a combination of deep relaxation techniques, education and understanding of how our mind and body work so you can enter a deeply relaxed self induced state of mind. This enables you to focus your attention inwards, tuning into your body and baby so that external distractions are minimised.  You can still respond to suggestions and affirmations and make your needs known to those supporting you.

A hypnobirthing state has been likened to that of Daydreaming, a calm and deeply relaxed state but not asleep. A client described this state to me as “like getting lost in a good book or a film where time is immaterial”  When you are afraid you will physically become tense, rigid and produce the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol.  These are our body’s alert hormones telling us we are in “danger” and it is “unsafe “ to give birth at this time.  These hormones have their place but not in the birthing room where you need to feel totally safe , supported and listened to which allows the hormone of love, OXYTOCIN to flow through your body so you can let go and  labour and  birth in a bubble of bliss. 

Words and expressions my clients have said they felt , “so chilled and calm”, “I felt like a badass”, “the biggest high of my life”, “fearless and powerful”, ”blissed out”
