HypnoBirthing®: A Celebration of Life - with Birth Exercise CD Included!
Childbirth is not something to be feared; it is a natural expression of life. With HypnoBirthing, your pregnancy and childbirth will become the gentle, life-affirming process it was meant to be.
In this easy-to-understand guide, HypnoBirthing founder Marie Mongan explodes the myth of pain as a natural accompaniment to birth. She proves through sound medical information that it is not our bodies but our culture that has made childbirth a moment of anguish, and that when we release the fear of birth, a fear that is keeping our bodies tense and closed, we will also release the pain.
HypnoBirthing is nature, not manipulation. It relaxes the mind in order to let the body work as it is designed. The HypnoBirthing exercises—positive thinking, relaxation, visualization, breathing and physical preparation—will lead to a happy and comfortable pregnancy, even if you are currently unsure of an intervention-free birth. Your confidence, trust and happy anticipation will in turn lead to the peaceful, fulfilling and bonding birth that is your right as a mother.
More than 10,000 happy couples have had their lives changed for the better by HypnoBirthing. More than 500 news organizations—including Good Morning America, The Today Show, Dateline, The Richard & Judy Show, Time, Newsweek, Parenting and Better Homes & Gardens—have joined the movement for better birthing.
Why is HypnoBirthing changing the way the world gives birth? That's simple. Because it works.

Rating:  - Only Somewhat Helpful
I found this book pretty late into my pregnancy (around 7 months). Don't get me wrong, the book has alot of great information and even some exercises you can try yourself. But my opinion is that to really benefit from hypnobirthing, you would need to take the actual classes to have an instructor teaching you and walking you through it. Many of the exercises described in the book were vague and I wouldn't have been sure if I was doing them correctly.
I loved the general information the book ... Read More
Rating: - Learn to use the strong mind-body connection to achieve a comfortable birth.
I have trained in clinical hypnosis at my medical school and seen first hand what amazing things can be accomplished. For anyone not sold on the Mongan method of Hypnobirthing my recommendation is to get a consultation with a Hypnobirthing provider before writing it off.
The efficacy of hypnosis in medicine has been established for over 50 yrs. The hypnotic language in the book is perfect and well communicated. However, I can see how those who haven't witnessed the effects of hypnosis might ... Read More
Rating: - Got me through an induction without epidural!
I was originally very skeptical of natural childbirth, but after doing a lot of research during pregnancy, and seeing the real statistics of less interventions = better outcomes for mom and baby, I became interested in Hypnobirthing. I recommend also reading "Childbirth Without Fear" by Grantley Dick-Reade, upon which all forms of hypnosis for childbirth are based.
I did not take the HB class, only a general childbirth education class provided by my hospital which covered the biology/mechanics, ... Read More
Rating: - Great Book!
