Hypnobirthing classes using The Calm Birth School Method
What is hypnobirthing?
Hypnobirthing is a complete birth prepration course. You and your birth companion will learn tools and techniques to help you prepare for a calm and positive birth experience, unique to your own individual circumstances.
This includes learning self-hypnosis and deep relaxation techniques, preparing the mind and body for birth during pregnancy and also learn about your options and choices for labour, birth and the early post-birth period.
The course can be delivered either 1:1 in the comfort of your own home, or as part of a group course where there will be a maximum of five couples on the course with you.

At the start of the course, you will receive your own copy of The Calm Birth Method book (by Suzy Ashworth & Liz Stanford), the course workbook and access to the relaxation and self-hypnosis audio MP3s. Up to 10 hours of teaching which includes:
