HypnoBirthing®
The Mongan Method
"When you change the way you view birth, the way you birth will change."
- Marie Mongan
What is HypnoBirthing?
​
The HypnoBirthing® program is a comprehensive educational process that includes special breathing, relaxation, visualization, meditative practice, attention to nutrition and positive body toning.
​
HypnoBirthing® – The Mongan Method, will teach you how to access your inner birthing instincts and trust in your bodies ability to birth. You will learn HypnoBirthing techniques, including affirmation, massage, visualization, breathing, deep relaxation, and self-hypnosis in five, 2.5-hour sessions.
​
​
“HypnoBirthing® is a tried and proven method that guides and prepares a woman in giving birth in a peaceful and extraordinarily beautiful manner. It is a program that considers the psychological, as well as the physical, well-being of the mother, her birth partner, and the newborn, independent of context, whether that be in the quiet of a home, a hospital, or a birth center.”

"Birth is vast and multifaceted; radiant and mysterious. Birth contains multitudes, and through her we birth our multitudes. We give birth to our hopes and our fears, to our ecstasies and our agonies, to our joy and our disappointments. We give birth to our babies, each one perfect and radiant. We give birth through our instincts, and we give birth to our instincts. We give birth to our capacity for instincts, which will match us perfectly with our babies, who are, and always will be, instinctive creatures. May we all be blessed through instinctive birth."
-Sarah Buckley
