HypnoBirthing®, the Mongan Method, is so much more than a birthing class. The support you receive with Inland HypnoBirthing is a comprehensive approach to childbirth. Emphasis is placed on pregnancy and childbirth, as well as on pre-birth parenting and the consciousness of the pre-born baby. If your desire is an all natural birth, a medically managed birth, or something in between, HypnoBirthing will give you the tools you need to birth with confidence.
For most of their lives, women have been inundated with negative stories of other women’s birth experiences. Even strangers want to tell us the horrors of giving birth. We’ve been conditioned to believe that unbearable pain is associated with labor. It doesn’t need to be that way! Women’s bodies are designed to birth babies.
You and your birthing companion will gain an understanding of how the birthing muscles work perfectly when the body is relaxed. You learn how to achieve this kind of relaxation and use your own natural birthing instincts for a calm, peaceful, comfortable, and often unmedicated birth.
With this very simple program of self-hypnosis and education, healthy, low-risk women, as well as women who need medical assistance because of special circumstances, learn to dismiss the fear-based stories, the misinformation, and birthing myths. They are helped to see birth as normal and learn to trust that their bodies know how to bring their babies into the world.
