- This Calm Birth Preparation Hypnobirthing workshop shows you how to increase your chances for a more natural birth.

- Also, learn solutions when labour seems long or has a stall!!
- Learn to trigger your body's natural endorphins (pain relief) for comfort.

This Calm Confident Birth workshop is suitable for all birth choices and is available to anyone who desires to create a more calm and confident birthing experience.
The size of the group's classes varies, depending on the time of year. It can be lovely to do hypnobirthing in a group because you can meet other like-minded expectant couples, exchange ideas, and learn from their questions. The groups are kept small enough to be personal and large enough to be friendly.
When to take this workshop
The bottom line is any time before you go into labour is a good time to take this workshop, but enrolling after months 6 or 7 of your pregnancy is recommended.
Even if it’s not your first pregnancy, you may want to consider attending as every labour and delivery is different, so even seasoned pros can benefit from a refresh.
Keep in mind that the sooner you register, the more likely you are to ensure you have secured a place.
I'm incredibly grateful and honoured to be an inspiration for everyone who chooses to practice for the birth they want. If you are considering this, do take a moment to read some of our beautiful Birth Stories.

Feeling Anxious about Childbirth?
Access Bars® can assist you in releasing the build-up of fear and anxiety that can often occur during pregnancy. Each Bars session clears the emotional overwhelm allowing a sense of peace and calm in your mind and body. Highly recommended during pregnancy as this will dissipate the build-up of thoughts, feelings and emotions about childbirth.
In addition, other benefits include feeling happier, a dramatic reduction in stress, a greater sense of peace and improved confidence. Especially relevant is the contribution to your baby being less programmed and more conscious.
