Hypnotherapy and Infertility

 

 

 Can hypnotherapy get you pregnant?


Hypnotherapy can help with many things. It can't get you pregnant, but hypnotherapy can really help with letting go of any unwanted thought patterns that are holding you back.

Old Beliefs

Many girls have spent years trying not to get pregnant, telling themselves 'It's not the right time' or 'They will be in trouble', so by the time they decide to conceive their mind is already in a muddle.

The Subconscious

The subconscious holds on to everything we learn and doesn't have a concept of time. So if you learnt at 15 years old that you shouldn't get pregnant, the subconscious mind may still be holding on to these thoughts.  25 years later and your subconscious will remember this thought as if it were yesterday. Hypnotherapy can help re-program old beliefs and thought patterns.

You need to relax - ha!

How many times do you hear people say, 'Just relax and it will happen'. Easy to say. Each month that goes by creates more stress and more worry. You are already in a stressful cycle. The demands on modern life mean that time out is a rarity and stress is prevalent in many peoples lives.

Like anything in life there is no guarantee of success,
but it might be worth a try before going down more medicalised routes?


Read Leah Elliotts (Age 40)  Full story "After enduring the pain of going through five miscarriages and feeling like they would never have their own child, Leah decided that it was time to start saving up their money for IVF. But one day, Leah happened to stumble across a magazine article about hypnotherapy that changed everything."

Hypnotherapy can really help you to relax, help with wellbeing and lifestyle choices and put you in the best frame of mind to become pregnant. For more information see www.calmandcontentedhypnotherapy.co.uk

Proud to be a 'Natal Hypnotherapy Mum'


I am so proud to be a Natal Hypnotherapy™ Mum for many reasons. 

Countless Natal Hypnotherapy™ Mums will understand exactly what I mean when I say that Natal Hypnotherapy™ truly gave me the confidence to birth in a way that was completely and instinctively right for me. 

It is plain speaking - there is nothing complicated about this natural process. Natal Hypnotherapy™ simply gave me the tools and techniques to have a calm pregnancy and empowering birth.

Giving birth is such a major life event and birth preparation is invaluable:
  • The importance of relaxation can not be under-estimated
  • Understanding the impact of the birth environment
  • Remaining active
  • Ensuring the birth space is protected from those who say what is and isn't 'allowed'
  • Receiving practical support from your birth partner
  • Understanding of the emotional side of birth 
  • By taking control, but also relinquishing control

I am proud to have birthed my way. There was no prescriptive do's and don't or must's and must not's. 

I am lucky that I really did have amazing support and a fantastic birth experience. No-one can tell you exactly what birth will be like for you: as each women is different. Even for the same woman, no two experiences are ever exactly the same and as a practitioner I am always careful about managing expectations.

When you experience birth for yourself, you will recognise that Natal Hypnotherapy™ is excellent in it's approach to antenatal care.

 Everyone births in their own unique way


Nothing in life is certain, but no matter how birth unfolds, Natal Hypnotherapy™ instills a perspective for confidence and calmness at every turn. Indeed, many couples comment how Natal Hypnotherapy™ teaches skills for life - I wonder how many Mums and Dads are out there still using '321 relax' to cope with toddler tantrums long after their baby's birth day...

I truly enjoy supporting new parents-to-be by providing a first rate antenatal programme and delight in hearing baby news and positive birth stories.

As you can probably see: not only am I a proud Natal Hypnotherapy Mum, but I am also very proud to be a Natal Hypnotherapy Practitioner.
