About HypnoBirthing ® : The Mongan Method
The HypnoBirthing® natural childbirth program is based on Marie Mongan's "dream that every woman, everywhere, will know the joy of a same, satisfying birth for both her baby and herself- one she'll not need to forget. It is this dream that creates the beautiful philosophy of HypnoBirthing®.
Moms learn how their bodies are created physically to support them with birthing. By understanding how the uterus and hormones function during birth, women can call upon this knowledge to lessen or even eliminate discomfort and/or the need for medication. Next, using the art of visualization techniques women are taught how to connect their body and mind. Understanding this connection women are free to relax, visualize and allow their body to give naturally birth as it was designed. With HypnoBirthing® you will not be in a trance or a sleep state. What you will experience is similar to that of a dream state or deep concentration. You will be aware of your bodies birthing process, but you will be able to determine what and how much you will feel. Without fear and tension; that causes pain, you will in control but profoundly relaxed.
