The Premise of HypnoBirthing® is that in the absence of special circumstance, you are perfectly created by nature to conceive, to nurture the development of your baby and to birth the baby safely and normal. Birthing persons and their babies should be treated according to the status of their own health, not what could, or has, possibly happened to others. Birth has its own time frame. It may rest, or it may accelerate. It need no manipulation or intervention, save for special circumstances. Babies will be born in their own time. This program includes education in special breathing techniques, self-hypnosis, relaxation, affirmation, visualization and bonding—all designed to assist you to become empowered and confident, as you learn to trust the innate wisdom of your body to know how to birth your baby intuitively(1).
