What is Hypnobirthing?
HypnoBirthing® is a tried and proven technique, as well as a philosophy 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.
The HypnoBirthing® program is built around an educational process that includes special breathing, relaxation, visualization, meditative practice, attention to nutrition, and positive body toning. Most importantly it fosters an air of mutual respect for the birthing family, as well as the healthcare provider in a traditional healthcare system or an alternative setting.
Furthermore it teaches women to let go of any previous programming about birth, to trust their bodies and to work with them. It also teaches them to free themselves from limiting thoughts and emotions that lead to fear causing pain and muscle resistance. It helps women regain their natural instinct to give birth.

More about me:
I am a mother of 2 little boys of 2 and 4 years old currently working as a singer, yoga teacher and hypnobirthing educator. I am orininally from the french part of switzerland but I live currently in Berlin.
After a sweet and calm pregnancy during covid, I had a difficult first birth that shook my self-confidence entirely. For my second pregnancy, I decided to do everything I could to make this birth go as smoothly as possible and that's when I discovered Marie Mongan's HypnoBirthing method. I regained confidence in my ability to birth my baby and I experience a magnificent although intense birth that I always knew i could have. It happened in a birth center, in water, alone with my partner and my midwife, exactly as i dreamt it. I was able to experience this second birth in serenity, breathing and relaxing through the waves (contractions,) managing the pain with self-hypnosis.
Shortly after my second birth, I felt the urge to share this beautiful method with other women and their companions so that they too can experience the birth of their dreams, and the confidence that they can birth the way they want.
