She also discusses sexual expectations and how sex changes after baby and her passion for helping us all change our beliefs and expectations around this so it is a much more positive experience for everyone.

Join us as we discuss hypnosis - what it is and what it's NOT. 

We do some myth busting around this



Revival birth - how it's different from hypnobirthing classes and can be used for all births, including C-sections and medicated hospital births.



Hypnosis is clinically proven to reduce the risk of post partum depression and anxiety. 



Chyanne shares how her passion for this work developed and all she has going on for women and helping them discover the super power of being connected to themselves.

All she has going on with Ladies night - so much more than just self care nights and also starting child-led hypnosis classes.
