What is hypnobirthing?

Discover the power of Hypnobirthing!

Hypnobirthing is a powerful course that empowers expectant parents to become confident and calm as they approach birth. The education and tools help them to have the best possible birth for them. Hypnobirthing allows women to feel calmer, more in control, and ultimately have a positive birth experience.


Hypnobirthing is a complete birth preparation course. It gives you tools to use during labor and birth, and it helps you to ditch the fear. It also gives you an in-depth understanding of what happens during your baby’s birth. You’ll understand the options available to you and develop ways of making the best decisions for you and your baby. These powerful tools are for every single birth. If your birth goes in a different direction from what you had hoped, hypnobirthing will help you remain calm, feel more in control, be more comfortable and ultimately view your baby’s birth as a positive event. Women have been birthing for millions of years; we were designed to do it and our bodies know what to do! However, quite often our over-thinking, human mind gets in the way. This makes labor and birth harder and more unpleasant than it was ever intended to be. Hypnobirthing allows you to reprogram your brain: to free yourself of the fear or negative expectations, and build trust in your incredible birthing body. It gives you powerful yet simple tools to allow your body to be relaxed during your baby’s birth. To put it simply: a relaxed body, embracing trust, equals an easier birth.
