About HypnoBirthing®
HypnoBirthing® – the Mongan method provides mums-to-be with techniques for achieving a calm and comfortable stress free birth.
With these skills properly applied you are free from the fear and tension which prevent the muscles of the body from functioning in the way nature intended. The mind and body are in harmony and nature is free to use its own natural resources and natural pain killers to lesson or eliminate any discomfort and create a wonderful birthing experience.
The good news is anyone can learn these skills!
And we at Birth
Easy, who are
HypnoBirthing®
mums ourselves,
feel
passionately
about teaching
them. During the
12-and-a-half
hours of
HypnoBirthing®
classes you will
learn how to
achieve the kind
of deep
relaxation which
allows your
birthing body to
get on with the
job for which it
was designed and
to birth as
nature intended.
Eliminate the
fear, and
eliminate the
pain.
Many women are overjoyed at finding themselves pregnant and look forward to holding their beautiful baby in their arms. They often try not to think too much about the birth, and if they do, their approach to birth is that it is something that has to be got through - ‘a means to an end’. The trouble is that all they have seen and heard makes them believe that it will not be a pleasant experience and they end up fearing the birth.
A 'fearful' woman is less likely to have a straightforward birth experience because of the fight or flight response (which is an instinct for survival) will take the fear to mean that it is unsafe to birth and the body will react accordingly. Stress hormones are released as the body prepares itself to fight, flee or freeze. In this state most of the blood and oxygen are diverted from parts of the body which are considered non-essential (such as the uterus) for immediate survival to the major organs and extremities. As a result the muscles tense and start to work against each other and the body experiences pain. Conversely, when a birthing woman is free of fear her muscles have plenty of oxygen and can remain in the relaxed state essential for comfortable, straightforward, fearless birth.
The
HypnoBirthing®
course will
provide
techniques, such
as relaxation,
special
breathing and
visualisation
which will
eliminate this
fear – tension –
pain syndrome.
