We strongly believe that when the birthing partner feels comfortable, knows what to expect and how they can help during the birth it makes and immense difference to the mother and baby. As the bestselling author of Mindful Menopause I'm equipped to help you reorganise your thinking and prepare for a positive menopause. My focus is on providing knowledge, practical tools, and simple yet powerful hypnosis techniques so that mums and partners can fully prepare for their unique, calm, positive birth. You’ll learn to use tools and techniques that help shift old beliefs and create new deep-seated beliefs that you can birth your baby, and it can be a positive, even euphoric, experience.The first is a 30 minute deep relaxation track; the second is a series of pregnancy affirmations to help you to adapt to the changes pregnancy brings; and the third is a set of birth affirmations to build your confidence and prepare you for labour. 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.

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. As a first time mum with a low pain threshold I was petrified to give birth but didn’t want a medicalised birth so thought I’d try this book and I honestly couldn’t recommend it enough!Change always begins from a single thought, are you ready to unlock the power within you and take it to the next level?

Hypnobirthing benefits for baby are more than just – in the weeks before birth as well, as baby’s brain is developing. In mindful hypnobirthing you are taught some mindfulness tools for birth, as is the birth partner (it’s brilliant for the birth partner! Mindful Hypnobirthing takes this natural ability of our body into account with a therapist’s understanding of hypnosis and its application for birth. I have covered around 7 hours of listening now, though I have a vague idea that when she talked about imagining favorite place, thats when she was talking about hypnobirthing!

There is a lot of hospital/medical talk in the next 70% of the book the isn’t relevant to women planning a freebirth or truly undisturbed homebirth. Reassuring, practical and based entirely on what works, Mindful Hypnobirthing is your essential guide to giving birth the way you want to.

At Mindful Mamma we think it’s important that you have access to this information and that you are given the opportunity to understand how important it is to take time out to relax and let go of the days stresses and strains.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. It’s putting the hypno, back into hypnobirthing so you really get the best tools underpinned by the latest evidence.
