HypnoBirthing® the ORIGINAL and the BEST “Birth with Hypnosis” program in the world
When having your baby with HypnoBirthing®, what you will experience is similar to the daydreaming or focusing that occurs when you are engrossed in a book or staring at a fire. You will be able to talk and move about-totally relaxed, but fully in control. You will experience your birthing in an atmosphere of calm and relaxation, without fear and tension that can cause pain. Your body’s natural anaesthesia (endorphins) will replace the stress hormones that cause pain. When its time for your baby to be born, you will be fully awake and involved. Not convinced?

Whether it is your first baby or you want a more positive birth experience than previously experienced, HypnoBirthing® has an amazing effect on the way couples feel about birth and the birth itself. Preparation is the key to a calmer, easy, more comfortable birth, some women even state that they have pain free births! HypnoBirthing® births are safer, the need for intervention is greatly reduced and the experience by mother, baby and birthing partner is a wonderful positive birth.
"My dream is that every woman, everywhere, will know the joy of a safe, satisfying birth for both her baby and herself-one that she will not forget"
Marie Mongan, 1999, Director of the HypnoBirthing® Institute and author of the HypnoBirthing® book.

Danielle Cook-teaching HypnoBirthing® since 2002
People sometimes ask how I know that HypnoBirthing® works-simple, I've done it myself. I was taught by Marie Mongan, founder of the HypnoBirthing® Institute in 2002, since then I have used the techniques for the births of my two sons, through this I have learnt more about the HypnoBirthing® techniques and how to use them more effectively. Most women that I teach successfully use the HypnoBirthing® techniques and have the birth they plan, however sometimes women do face special circumstances that need medical intervention, but even those who do say that they still felt relaxed, calm and in control.
