Natal Hypnotherapy for pregnancy, birth and beyond
Relaxation and visualizations CDs Voted 'Pregnancy product of the year'
Maggie Howell - a British Hypnotherapist and mother to 5 sons, has created the Natal Hypnotherapy range of CDs and book to enhance your pregnancy and birth experience, by using your natural skills and inner resources. The CDs use a combination of self hypnosis techniques, deep relaxation and guided visualization to help you overcome fears, create a state of calm and relaxation, maintain your health, increase bonding with your baby and maximise your bodies potential.
By rehearsing the way you would like things to be, for example a comfortable, natural birth, over and over again in your mind, it becomes more and more familiar to you and so effectively you remove the fear of the unknown.
The term hypnobirthing has become a very generic term in the UK for any hypnosis for birth. The hypnobirthing approach that you will hear on these samples are the Natal hypnotherapy techniques which is one of the UKs longest standing approaches to hypnois for birth.
"One of the main keys to a successful labour is being calm, relaxed and feeling in control. From my observations, hypnotherapy certainly helps to promote relaxation. Some of our clients that have used hypnosis ante natally, have reported that they have been able to "self hypnotise" during labour making it an easier and enjoyable experience. One client was so relaxed after using your CD that it hardly seemed as though she was labouring". Laura Abbott, Midwife
97% of mothers who have used the CDs would recommend them to others. For more details on the post natal research on the effectiveness of the CDs go to research or to feedback from mothers

The Natal Hypnotherapy™ Programme £ 40
The Natal Programme has been designed to be easy to use, to fit in around your busy schedule and to be extremely powerful in helping you have a positive pregnancy and birth experience.
By using the full programme, you are giving yourself the best chance to practice and experience using these powerful techniques without having to go on a course or to see an individual hypnotherapist.
The four step programme comes with a complete guide to effective birth preparation (this will be found inside the birth preparation CD). Give yourself the opportunity to prepare for a wonderful pregnancy, birth and post natal experience by building on your natural skills, abilities and confidence in your body.
Step 1. At any time during pregnancy. The Pregnancy Relaxation CD is a wonderful introduction to using self Hypnosis and teaches you relaxation and breathing techniques.
Step 2. From 32 weeks onwards begin listening to the Birth preparation CD (either the home or hospital version). This builds on the relaxation and breathing techniques learned in step 1 and leads you into preparing for the birth
Step 3. During the birth It is Ok to use the birth preparation CD during the very early stages of labour. However, once the sensations become more "serious" then use the relaxing birth music CD. This has the same background music as the above CDs. The music itself acts as a powerful trigger for relaxation, as subconsciously, every time you have heard the music before you would have entered a deeply relaxed state.
Step 4. After the baby has been born, the Fast Post Natal recovery CD can be listened to in the last week of pregnancy and then as often as possible in the first few weeks after the birth.
