Hypnobirthing 101: Simple Tools to Make Your Birth Better That's Helpful with Ed Stott
-
- Self-Improvement
Before I fell pregnant, I honestly couldn’t have taken less interest in pregnancy, birth or babies & for the first two thirds of my pregnancy my attitude remained the same. Until I read a book & that book sparked an obsession and sent me deep down the rabbit hole and I am now utterly obsessed with the science & magic of birth. The book I read was about hypnobirthing.
If you like me, before I read the book, think that means I’ll have to invite a man with a pendulum and a shiny black cape to my birth. You couldn’t be more wrong. Learning about hypnobirthing and reimagining the possibilities for birth has left me feeling empowered and dare I say it - excited for this huge life event.
So if you have a pregnant person in your life - please send them this conversation, they are going to be eternally grateful to you.
The woman responsible for my new obsession is Siobhan Miller, she’s the Founder of the Positive Birth Company.
In this episode, we’re going to give you an introduction to hypnobirthing & teach you some practical tools that will absolutely make your birth better.-
