Why I do my Prenatal Massage Side-Lying
I know many women miss laying face down while pregnant.
I was a stomach sleeper myself before kids!
I have worked with the tables with the hole cut out and it is a nice, easy way to work on someone’s body.
But for me, I don’t feel my work is as effective.
Let Me Help You Calm Your Nervous System
Let me help you calm your nervous system.
You don’t have to do it alone!
It is good to learn breathing techniques.
It is good to have self care practices you do at home.
But we can’t expect to do it all on our own all the time…
Our muscles are like our emotions...if we are too hard on them, we will aggravate them even more!
If you have been on my massage table you know that I work slowly and gradually.
Forcing my hands through a tight muscle is not my style.
Think about when you are really mad or upset. How do you want someone to approach you?
Benefits to Learning HypnoBirthing In-Person
Before the pandemic, The HypnoBirthing Institute did not allow virtual teaching because they knew it did not offer the same quality of teaching. While it served its purpose, there is so much that is missed or lacking in a virtual setting. This is why I brought it back to in-person and will never look back.
I have taught HypnoBirthing to hundreds of couples over the last 10 years. The classroom is filled with expectant parents. Some first timers and some having their 3rd or 4th baby!
The energy in the room just cannot be beat.

Thank you so much for your class and for what you do. You are an incredible HypnoBirthing instructor. I was already a huge advocate but after our birth experience I am screaming HypnoBirthing from the mountain tops.
Why I Never Got Vaginal Exams at My Prenatal Visits Ever Again
It is routine for them to offer you to have a cervical check at 37 weeks.
Here is how my first pregnancy played out…

A HypnoBirthing Testimonial ~ A planned homebirth and the baby arrives 5 mins before the midwife!
Since the beginning of my pregnancy I've been saying I am going to have a smooth and easy pregnancy. My labor and birth is going to be quick and easy. I loved getting the recording of the birth affirmations and adding those to my daily routine. The rainbow relaxation was a perfect addition also.
That Time I Convinced Myself the Baby was Coming Early
My first baby was due May 25th.
I was working as a massage therapist and I had chosen May 1st as my stop working date.
I thought, oh I will be so relaxed the baby will just come!
How to Tune into Your Innate Power to Give Birth
Tune out the noise.
Don’t listen or watch or read about scary birth experiences. We honor what others have been through and acknowledge that they exist, but if they are creating fear, they are not serving you.
I Turn My Birthing Over To My Body and My Baby
𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸.
Our mind is filled with birth stories. The good, the bad, the scary.
Think about if you were going to do a challenging event that brought physical challenges and sparked some fear or worry or doubt in your mind.
