HypnoBirthing Breathing Instructions for EACH Stage of Birth and 9 awesome benefits.
Focused Hypnobirthing breathing promotes the release of pain relieving endorphins for a more calm birth.
HypnoBirthing breathing instructions are frequently overlooked as a vital part of the birthing preparation.
The Hypnobirthing course teaches you the correct breathing techniques for each stage of childbirth.
Essential element of your breathing is obvious. You realise that you can live without food or water for quite some time, yet you can’t live more than a few minutes without taking a breath.
Research also suggests that focused breathing promotes the release of pain relieving endorphins. These hormones are necessary for a more calm and comfortable childbirth.
Focused breathing helps to create a safe space for a pregnant mum to calmly participate in the wonderful experience of childbirth.
As the birth unfolds, your breath can reconnect you with the natural ebb and flow of your body and surrender to the natural process.
1)Overcoming tension and resistance during birth
2)Surrendering rather than resisting contractions
3)Breathing down rather than pushing
4)A steady release of opiates/endorphins, the natural pain relieving hormones and chemistry
5)Enriched experience of being in the present moment
6)More peace and calm, less stress as you move through each stage of birth
7)Empowerment to create the kind of birth you want
8)Enhanced physical well-being and quick recovery
9)Loving participation in bringing your baby into the world
The breath is a vital part of our existence and a major source of energy. Eastern cultures have always understood the power of the breath and call it ‘chi’ or ‘prana’. The natural state of breathing is relaxed, rhythmic, flowing, and open.
Poor breathing habits are characterised by short, shallow irregular breaths. Shallow breathing creates internal stress, confusion, tension and lack of energy.
Learning how to breathe correctly during pregnancy and birth increases the flow of oxygen and ‘feel good’ hormones in your body. The importance of the breath is very rarely contemplated in the Western world.
Unless we are made aware of our breathing, we go through life breathing unconsciously not even fully filling the lungs.
HypnoBirthing breathing takes practice, because many of us have never done it this way before. It’s important to spend time being aware of your Hypnobirthing Breathing and realising just how much air you are taking in, as well as the importance of fully breathing out.
Research suggests that focused breathing promotes the release of hormones necessary for a far more comfortable childbirth.
When a mother is properly prepared mentally, physically and spiritually she can give birth to her baby in a way that is calm, nurturing and empowering.
