HypnoBirthing® “The Mongan Method” – 5 Sessions – 2.5 hrs

The HypnoBirthing childbirth method is as much a philosophy of birth as it is a technique for achieving a satisfying, relaxing, and stress-free method of birthing. Runs each Wednesday from Feb 6 – March 6, 2019.

Course Includes Five Sessions (2.5 hour evening classes) for you and your birthing partner, one copy of HypnoBirthing® Book – “The Mongan Method” & CD.

HypnoBirthing teaches you, along with your birthing companion, the art and joy of experiencing birth in a more comfortable manner. You will learn how to call upon your body’s own natural epidural and thus lessen or even eliminate discomfort and the need for medication. When a woman is properly prepared for childbirth and when mind and body are in harmony, nature is free to function in the same well-designed manner that it does naturally.

You will be fascinated as you view HypnoBirthing films showing labouring mothers, awake, alert and in good humour as they experience the kind of gentle birth that you, too, can know when you are free of the Fear-Tension-Pain Syndrome. HypnoBirthing teaches you to release all prior programming about birth, how to trust your body and work with it, as well as how to free yourself of harmful emotions that lead to pain-causing fear and unyielding muscles.

HypnoBirthing will teach you the art of using your own natural birthing instincts. You will be aware and fully in control, but profoundly relaxed.

Enrolment in this course is an investment in yourself and your baby and is a life-changing event.

You will learn:

How to use self-hypnosis
To stop negative programming and fears
Relaxation and self-hypnosis techniques to eliminate the fear and tension that causes long labour and pain, replacing it with confidence, calm and comfort
Techniques to produce a shorter, more comfortable labour
To release negative experiences from the past and present that could interfere with your calm, and comfortable birth
To control your body’s own natural relaxant
Why women in other cultures have birthing almost entirely free of discomfort
Special breathing techniques for the different stages of labour that work with the body to promote relaxation
To create your own effective birth plan
Ways your birth companion can participate throughout the birth
Natural techniques for induction of labour, once beyond your “Estimated due date”
Natural techniques to re-stimulate a “stalled labour”
The importance of prenatal and perinatal bonding
HypnoBirthing Advantages:

Eliminates the Fear-Tension-Pain Syndrome before, during and after birthing
Reduces the need for chemical anesthesia
Eliminates fatigue during labour, leaving the mother fresh, awake and with the energy needed to bring her baby into the world
Shortens the first stage of labour by several hours and often eliminates the need to push to bring the baby to the crowning stage
The birthing companion is an integral part of the birthing, not an onlooker
Postnatal recovery is rapid and easier
Babies are better adjusted and happier
Mothers do not run the risk of hyperventilating from shallow breathing
Promotes special bonding of mother, baby and birthing companion
Fewer interventions and complications during labour
Returns birthing to the beautiful, peaceful experience nature intended

Reiki is a Japanese energy healing technique for relaxation, stress reduction and inner balance that can also promote healing on many levels including physical, mental and emotional. It works with Universal Life Force Energy to clear and balance the energy fields of your body bringing calm to body/mind and clarity to your thinking. Reiki increases a person’s own supply of life force energy and provides a deep relaxation to the mind/body which can add to the healing process.

Usui/Holy Fire III Reiki is a new Reiki for today’s stressful times. This newer system of Reiki combines the original system of Usui Reiki with a newer, more refined Reiki that is of a higher, vibrational energy. It heals through purification, healing, empowerment and guidance. The complete system includes the four Reiki symbols from the Usui tradition as well as the Holy Fire master symbol. Enlightenment and powerful transformation can be two side effects of learning to channel this beautiful, gentle yet powerful energy!

The use of the word holy in the name Holy Fire II is not intended to have a religious meaning. The word holy has as its root meaning to be whole and complete and this is how it is used in Holy Fire III. Therefore, Holy Fire III is a spiritual energy that creates wholeness through purification, healing, empowerment and guidance.

Some Reiki Benefits can include:

• More calm to the body and mind
• Increased clarity
• Improved decision-making
• Reduction of overwhelm and anxiety
• Reduction of stress and pain
• Opening to more love & compassion
• Shifting of old perceptions
