Hypnobirthing Classes

We cannot control our births, but we can control our preparation, planning and emotional world. I offer group classes, private classes and online classes to guide you towards feeling knowledgeable and empowered and to help you feel calm and confident for your positive birth, no matter the circumstances.

What is hypnobirthing ?

Class outline

My classes are based on the Hypnobirthing Australia™ Program. I teach this contemporary, inclusive and evidenced-based program providing mamas and partners with in-depth knowledge of birth and the medical system, as well as a set of tools and techniques to have an empowered and positive birth. As a Certified Hypnotherapist I enjoy sharing tools to remain calm and feel confident throughout birth.

The ‘hypno’ in ‘hypnobirthing’

The Hypnobirthing aspect of the program is where true power lies for each woman. 

  • As a Certified Hypnotherapist, you will learn from me a set of powerful techniques for you and your birth partner to use throughout pregnancy and into labour and birth, to stay centred, calm and focused.

  • Learning and familiarising yourself with these techniques throughout pregnancy will enable you to enter a more relaxed state during labour and birth.

  • You will learn techniques to release any fear and therefore physical tension.

  • I offer a free powerful hypnosis session to any one who does a course with me.

  • For those wanting to explore Hypnosis further - please visit Esther’s hypnotherapy website: Your Power - Your Mind.

 

Your brain and your body

  • You will also gain insights into the physiology of the brain and the power your brain has on your body.

  • You will learn to work with your body at such an intense time and will understand the integral role of the brain in this process.

  • Learning the physiology of the body during labour and birth will help you have more trust in what is happening for you physically.

  • You will be able to learn how to gain maximum benefit from the natural processes occurring in your system, such as hormone release.
