| the Mongan Method |
This is the authentic course affiliated with the HypnoBirthing® Mongan Method Institute.
Why choose a 5 session course?
Self-hypnosis and deep relaxation are very effective tools. For you to be able to use them when you are in labour is an acquired skill, that needs to be learned gradually in stages and practised in between sessions. This ensures that you have the time to develop the conditioned responses that make HypnoBirthing the Mongan Method so successful. There is no short cut, and this why we teach our course over 5 sessions.
This course also allows the time to explore your feelings, relax with your partner and to resolve and release any anxieties that may arise. We like to work with you personally and to follow your progress, so that we can ensure that you are fully ready, relaxed and confident as you approach the birth of your baby.
