HypnoBirthing® – The Mongan Method is as much a philosophy as it is a technique. The method teaches you that, in the absence of fear and tension, or special medical circumstances, severe pain does not have to be an accompaniment of labor. This method prepares your mind & body for an easy, calm birth!
In my classes, you will gain an understanding of how the birthing muscles work in perfect harmony–as they were designed to–when your body is sufficiently relaxed and you trust birth. You will learn how to achieve this kind of relaxation, free of the resistance that fear creates, and you will learn to use your natural birthing instincts for a calm, serene and comfortable birth.
Affiliated with the HypnoBirthing® Institute, this comprehensive 5-week childbirth class will teach you how to prepare your mind and body for the birth you will want to remember and celebrate.
The class is taught by Olya Morkova, a certified HypnoBirthing® childbirth educator and birth doula. The class covers:
- hormones in labor
- breathing techniques
- comfort measures & birthing positions
- HypnoBirthing practice, including relaxation, visualization, deepening
- progressive relaxation techniques
- prenatal nutrition
- prenatal fitness
- partner's role in labor
- signs of labor
- avoiding unnecessary interventions
- choosing a caregiver and birthing location
- birth plan preparation
- breastfeeding
and much more!
