ESSENTIALS COURSE ( 4 hours)*
The Essentials Short course might be for you if you did a hypnobirthing course for a previous birth and want a refresher, or you’re much later on in your pregnancy and short on time, or perhaps you’ve done another antenatal course but feel something is missing.
This course is 4 hours so condensed live learning and more optional self-learning and preparation at home (compared to the full course). When doing as a private course there is also flexibility to spend more time on a particularly area of focus should you wish.
What you will learn:
- Overview of hypnobirthing and mindful birth, including the birth hormones, mind body connection, and what you can and don’t need to control
- Relaxation tools and breathing techniques for supporting your mind and body in all birth scenarios and situation.
- Overview of the 3 stages of physiological birth
- Things to consider if you have an abdominal birth (caesarean section)
- Decision Making – key decisions, how to communicate with your health care providers in making the best choices through pregnancy and birth for you and your baby
- What to do next, including writing a birth and postnatal plan
- Resources and exercises to continue your learning and preparation after the course, including; the pevis and optimum positioning, partner pack and support role, writing a birth and postnatal plan.
- Optional: previous birth reflection
