HypnoBirthing® is a method of birthing as well as a way of thinking. It helps women to better understand the way their body works when in labour, and what your body needs in order to labour most effectively and comfortably. It encourages women to release their fear around labour and teaches techniques to stay calm and relaxed in both the lead up to birth as well as during labour. We focus on breathing, visualisations, affirmations and relaxation.

​

HypnoBirthing® supports couples in making informed decisions during birth, based on the information they have learnt during the classes. It helps to give couples the confidence to be part of this conversation during birth.

​

Our course, as well as helping women prepare, is helpful for the Dad’s to be – giving them a clear role during the labour, and a voice and understanding to communicate with care givers especially in a medical setting.

​

There can be some apprehension relating to hypnosis.  Self-hypnosis is merely a form of deep relaxation / relaxed concentration; you will not be in a trance.  You are always in control and will never do anything against your will.

​

Brighter Birth Project works with couples to eliminate fear, to teach couples how the body works during birth and to give a set of relaxation techniques, also helping women to trust the ability of their bodies in the birth process.
