Mindful Hypnobirthing: Hypnosis and Mindfulness Techniques for a Calm and Confident Birth

Product Information

Both Martin and I really enjoyed it, and he’s got just what I hoped he would out of it – some confidence in his own abilities as a husband, supporter, advocate and future Dad! This reliance on something external took away from the experience that they could do it without the tools, but also busied the mind when it should be quietening down ready for birth. Using a powerful combination of mindfulness, hypnosis and relaxation techniques, Sophie will ensure you feel genuinely excited and completely prepared for birth. Even medicial options available at the time of labor have been disussed but I think I slept through most of the info as it was again another long story format. When you think about what you did last week or what you are having for supper tonight you are in a form of hypnosis.

Hypnobirthing benefits for baby are more than just – in the weeks before birth as well, as baby’s brain is developing. Try listening to them at different times of the day, with and without headphones, and using in the positions outlined in the book (see pages 00).

I run one to one sessions online and also have a self-guided course based on the best selling book Mindful Hypnobirthing. If, for any reason, there are distractions or interruptions that take you out of your birthing zone, you’ll learn how to notice them for what they are and adjust your environment using practical tools as well as hypnosis audio tracks.

We go much further than the physiological aspects included in other antenatal classes, and we focus on how you can increase your chances of having the birth you want using specific hypnosis and mindfulness techniques that Sophie Fletcher has crafted over 15 years of experience as a hypnotherapist and doula. My husband commented on how he was surprised I managed through the stage I did with nothing and thought it was the techniques I used that was the cause, he was even shocked when I managed to get up from the bed and go to the toilet mid contractions whilst being sick!

As the bestselling author of Mindful Menopause I'm equipped to help you reorganise your thinking and prepare for a positive menopause.

I’m sorry, but there’s no way you can stay calm and in a peaceful trance when you’re body is about to split in half. You will also get access to the online course which is full of videos, tracks and visuals to help you really get to grips with hypnobirthing. Importantly it gives the birthing partner a quiet confidence that is picked up on by the mother who feels supported and is able to let go and really go within and focus on the birth. We have been asked for a long time whether Sophie could record something for new mums, who have really enjoyed the hypnobirthing MP3 downloads for birth.I liked the explanations of how and why mindful hypnosis is effective for birthing and the stories from other parents were inspiring and reassuring.

That said if you have a story you want to share I am very happy to use your story on my blogs and social media as your story can help other to know that they can do it too! The techniques you learn will have you working together as a team, able to be calm, stay focused or to ask the questions you need to with a deep-seated confidence. Rather than having the intention of change, mindfulness is about noticing and being curious about why you feel a certain way, whether that’s physical or emotional. Before getting the book I had a notion that I will be fully prepared and calm about my labour but after lsitening to it I realised that I'm even more confused.Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audio edition of Mindful Hypnobirthing: Hypnosis and Mindfulness Techniques for a Calm and Confident Birth by Sophie Fletcher, read by the author.
