Hypnobirthing
What is Hypnobirthing
Hypnobirthing is more than relaxation techniques; its a complete reframing of everything and anything that causes anxiety and fear around birth. If we can learn to control - or better yet, eliminate - that fear, we put ourselves in control and empower ourselves to feel confident, calm and positive.
As an experienced Birth Doula, I have supported at births with clients who also did their hypnobirthing with me,
so I have witnessed first-hand the profound and incredible difference this knowledge and mindset can make.
​​Throughout the course, we learn about
-
The biological physiology of natural birth and how your understanding of this can aid the process
-
What your clinical options are, how to navigate the healthcare system and your rights within it
-
How to advocate for yourself and make informed decisions that are right for you
-
The role of the Birth Partner, giving them the tools and knowledge to become your best support and a vital part of the birth
-
Relaxation techniques and breathing techniques that are proven to enable a smooth, calm and positive outcome
If these things are important to you, please get in touch and register your interest today. It's never too late to empower yourself with knowledge and techniques that give you the opportunity for a positive and safe birth.
Testimonial
Cheryl and Gary completed the Hypnobirthing course with me privately and also engaged me as their Birth Doula
"Doing the Hypnobirthing course with Sam was incredibly helpful. We went into the birth calm and confident and felt able to make informed choices.
Hypnobirthing gives you a whole toolkit of techniques to use so you can pick those that resonate most with you. I found some of the scripts really useful for relaxing during pregnancy and used the breathing exercises and positive affirmations during labour.
Hypnobirthing really helped me to feel like my baby was going to arrive when they were meant to & that my body was going to be able to give birth to them.
I credit Hypnobirthing with helping me labour at home until I was 10cms dilated and when I arrived at the birth centre, my daughter was born less than 90 minutes later. It was such a calm experience and so different to my first labour, which is exactly what we’d been looking to achieve.
My husband was also a fan of Hypnobirthing & felt it gave him practical ways to support me. We’d both thoroughly recommend Hypnobirthing, especially with Sam who delivers it in such a lovely way & perfectly embodies the calming and empowering nature of it."
