During our time together, you and your birth partner will cover many things including:

What will you be given?

At your Hypnobirthing class you will be given all the materials you need to continue your practice at home including:

o  The Hypnobirthing Book by Katharine Graves  (founder of KG Hypnobirthing)  
o  Course manual packed with information, self-hypnosis scripts and more
o  Downloadable audio recordings
o  Email support for any questions or concerns about pregnancy, labour, birth and breastfeeding

When to attend

Ideally it would be  good to  start any time from 20 weeks; most couples tend to attend between 25-30 weeks.  This will give you and your birth partner time to learn and practice how to use all the hypnobirthing techniques effectively for the best birth possible for you.  If you are over the 30 week stage, private one to one bespoke intensive sessions are available. Please contact me for more information and prices.

 

 

 

o  An explanation of  KG Hypnobirthing and why it works so well.

o  Fear release methods to release tension; boost confidence and trust in your body’s innate ability to give birth.
