What is HypnoBirthing - The Mongan Method
The Gold Standard of Childbirth Education HypnoBirthing® is a rewarding, relaxing, stress‐free method of birthing that is based on the belief that when a mother is properly prepared for birthing physically, mentally, and spiritually, she can experience the achievement of birthing her baby in an easier, more positive and comfortable way. HypnoBirthing® is as much a philosophy as it is a technique that introduces hypnosis, a naturally induced state of relaxed concentration in which we communicate suggestions to our subconscious mind. This part of our mind influences what we think, how we feel and the choices we make. Almost anyone who chooses to can reach deep relaxation and redirect their focus. Birthing becomes a calm, relaxed experience, without the fear and tension that cause pain. The body’s natural anaesthesia (endorphins) will replace the stress hormones that create pain, and when it’s time for the baby to be born, the mother is empowered, confident and peaceful.
Marie “Mickey” Mongan, founder of HypnoBirthing® is a woman who has devoted her entire life to working with women of all ages, and in all walks of life. Through her book and the HybnoBirthing method, she shares the conviction of her own personal birthing experience and her sensitivity to the emotional and spiritual needs of birthing women.
