What is HypnoBirthing?
HypnoBirthing the Mongan Method is a birth preparation program that prepares the mother to give birth in a peaceful and calm manner, full of confidence and trust in her body knowing how to give birth in the most natural and instinctive way. This unique program teaches women simple but effective self-hypnosis, relaxation and special breathing & imagery techniques for a calm, relaxed and more comfortable birth.
The main goal of HypnoBirthing is to teach the pregnant woman how to release all prior programming about birth to free herself of limiting thoughts and emotions that lead to pain, causing fear and resistant muscles. This unique program considers the psychological and emotional as well as the physical well-being of the mother, but also her birth partner and the newborn.
​
HypnoBirthing doesn’t require any particular belief system or prior experience.

​
Will I be in a trance or asleep during my birth?
No not at all. Self-hypnosis has nothing to do with the on stage magical and mystical myth of hypnosis where people seem to be made to give up control of themselves. You’ll rather be in a state of deep relaxation, awake, aware and fully in control of what is happening around you. You will be able to interact with your birth partner and the medical staff. With HypnoBirthing you can just tune out the distractions. Your focus will be on your amazing birthing body and your baby that will soon be born.
The HypnoBirthing experience is comparable with the state of mind when you are engrossed in a beautiful book or daydreaming. Have you ever asked yourself while driving the car back home from work how you got there? Or have you ever been so caught up in a film or your mobile phone that you've lost track of time?
​
Hypnosis is just simply a natural state of physical, emotional and mental relaxation along with a heightened state of awareness. This state of consciousness is extremeley comfortable and relaxing just like those moments before you fall asleep or as you start to wake up in the morning.

​
The HypnoBirthing Premise
​
Through a very simple program of self-hypnosis and education, healthy, low-risk women, as well as women who need medical assistance because of special circumstances, learn to dismiss fear-based stories, misinformation, and birthing myths; and they are helped to see birth as normal. They learn to trust that their bodies know how to bring their babies into the world in the calm and gentle way that Nature intended
