HypnoBirthing®
Helen Pywell BA (Psych), Cert IV Training & Assessment, Registered HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator
HypnoBirthing - The Mongan Method® is the premier choice in natural child birth, and offers far more than traditional child birth education classes. Most natural child birth courses teach skills for coping with the pain that is considered an inevitable part of child birth. With HypnoBirthing, you and your partner will learn how to use self-hypnosis, guided imagery, and special relaxation and breathing techniques that can bring about a shorter, easier, and more comfortable birth, free of harmful drugs for you and your baby. You will birth your baby in a calm and serene manner, awake, alert, and fully in control.
Although HypnoBirthing has been in existence since 1987, it is not as widely known as some of the more traditional child birth training methods, mainly due to the myths and misconceptions surrounding hypnosis. There is nothing mystical about hypnosis. In fact, hypnosis is nothing more than our innate ability to achieve a deep level of relaxation, accompanied by an intense focus on a desired goal. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Through this training, you and your partner will learn self-hypnosis techniques that you will enrich every aspect of your lives.

5 Benefits of HypnoBirthing
for an empowered, gentle birth
1. Personal attention. Class numbers are kept small so each class is respectful and supportive of individual circumstances.
2. Practical Skills and Strategies, not just a list of medical terms. You feel confident and prepared for your birth.
3. Breathing Techniques - The hospital courses no longer teach breathing techniques! The breathing techniques are your natural tool for working with your body during labour.
4. Relaxation, visualization and fear release. You learn how to relax and visualize effectively. The effects and benefits of this are immediate during pregnancy, powerful during birth, and long-lasting. Many mothers report that they feel calmer as parents to their new baby as a result of having learned how to relax during HypnoBirthing classes.
5. Inclusive Role of Birthing Partner – We provide practical and positive guidance for working together to bring about a peaceful, calm and gentle birth for your baby. Your birthing partner is included in all the breathing techniques, relaxation and other activities. Often birthing partners report improved sleep and stress-management as they too apply the breathing and deep relaxation principles.
