Birth without fear; fill yourself with all the knowledge, tools and techniques that will help you create your own positive and empowering birth story.
The first unit focuses on foundational concepts. What is self-hypnosis, and how will we use it for birthing? You will learn just how incredible our mind and body is and how we are very much wired to give birth.
Unit 1 will have you learning a little birth anatomy and physiology 101 to help you foster that mind/body connection. You will learn how to create & maintain a positive mindset through a variety of techniques so that you can create that positive and empowering birth experience you truly deserve. We’ll also explore the critical role of the caregiver (your support partner) so that you feel truly supported throughout your pregnancy, birth and postpartum period. Unit 1 also includes:
This part of the course will equip you with the tools and skills to become a hypnobirthing expert and birthing goddess! We’ll cover all the meditation and self-hypnosis tracks and scripts, birth music and scents to help you drop into a more calm and relaxed state. You will learn how to handle hypnotic anchors and triggers and teach your birthing partner how to utilise massage, touch and acupressure techniques to help you to surrender to the sensations of your labouring body and release all the endorphins (your body’s natural pain relief- 20-40 times stronger than morphine when released in abundance!!!). We will then spend a lot of time focusing on one of the primary skills at the core of hypnobirthing: proper breathing.

This is where we bring everything we’ve learnt all together. Melissa has helped hundreds of expecting parents experience empowered birth with hypnobirthing, so she knows what to expect in the weeks and days leading up to your baby’s birthday! You’ll learn how to spot the signs that labour is starting and what to expect when your waters break. You’ll be confident at the moment labour begins because you’ll have this belief and trust in your body like no other. Melissa will also talk about signs of when to head to hospital and when to call your midwife. We’ll even prepare you for the unlikely situation where you have an accidental home or car birth. Melissa will also talk about what to expect after the birth of your baby, she will talk about the delivery of the placenta, aftercare and a little about the first few days of breastfeeding and what to expect. We then send you off with a little practice routine so that you can continue to prepare your mind and body for your labour and birth at home.
