In this comprehensive class you will learn relaxation and self-hypnosis techniques to eliminate the fear and tension that causes long labor and discomfort. You learn the creation and control of the body's own natural endorphins, how the mother's body is designed to work in neuromuscular harmony with nature throughout labor and other techniques to produce a shorter, more comfortable labor.

You will also learn the source of the myth that pain is "natural" to childbirth and why women of other cultures have birthings almost entirely free of discomfort.

Mom's to be need to enroll in classes between their 4th and 7th months of pregnancy. Self-hypnosis is not difficult to learn but you need ample time to practice the many different exercises. The complete program consists of four 2 and 1/2 hour sessions. Please call to set up an appointment early as class size is limited and you may need to be scheduled for a later class. There are both group and private session available.
