FEARLESS CHILDBIRTH
Fearless Childbirth is an original online course designed to help pregnant women reduce fear of the birthing process. The online forum allows for self-paced access to five modules of information, articles, exercises, audio recordings, homework assignments, and further resources to prepare you for one of the most incredible experiences of your life – and beyond!
The $375 fee includes access to the course plus three in-person sessions for bodywork and dialoguing to facilitate reduction in stress and anxiety.
Mental preparation is crucial for an optimal labor and birth! No matter where you choose to give birth and what interventions you may or may not want, learning these skills will vastly improve your experience:
-
RELAXATION:
Reducing tension and fear reduces pain. Learn many different techniques to relax your mind and body and elicit the parasympathetic nervous system response – essential for optimal reproductive functioning.
-
VISUALIZATION:
You get what you focus on. Find out how to use your imagination to create changes in your body. Practice ego-strengthening skills as well as pain management techniques and mental rehearsal.
-
OVERCOMING OBSTACLES:
Reducing inner conflict makes external circumstances that much easier to navigate. Discover and overcome obstacles before your labor, using techniques such as Parts Therapy, Regression, and Gestalt Therapy to improve your sense of strength and confidence.
LEARN HOW TO GET YOUR BODY AND MIND TO WORK FOR YOU!
Meditative strategies have proven to reduce the length of labor and hospital stay, the need for pain medication and interventions, and the rates of postpartum depression.
I gave birth to my own babies at home in 2002 and 2004, and they were transformational and empowering experiences. I am grateful to be able to help others on their own birthing journey!
