Overview

When you are deeply relaxed, your analytical, critical and rational mind (the conscious part) takes a rest while you then tune into your subconscious (like when you are day dreaming). In this deeply relaxed state, your subconscious mind becomes very receptive to positive suggestions. The combination of deep relaxation (which in itself will help alleviate the symptoms of morning sickness) and giving a new set of instructions to your mind / body, begins to change the way your body reacts to the changes caused by the pregnancy. These new instructions come into effect both while listening to the CD, and more importantly after the session.

After listening to your CD I stopped being sick after meals. The nausea only comes back very occasionally, and my appetite has improved almost back to normal! I wish I'd known about it for my last pregnancy, as I suffered really badly until about 18 weeks. I'll certainly recommend the CD to my friends Mandy Shaw The CD was great. After listening to the CD a few times, I was not only sleeping really well and the nausea and vomiting just stopped Alana G, Surrey, UK The CD was really powerful. I was quite skeptical in the beginning, but after listening to it a few times I noticed a definite improvement - what a relief Melissa B, London I had tried everything with little effect. I was not sure how this would work, but I gave it a go - It was great - I felt far more relaxed, actually got my appetite back and stopped feeling sick. Janie, Michegan, US I loved the feeling of relaxation during and after. Before listening to the CD I was miserable constantly and any improvement was appreciated. It helped when nothing else did . Natesha Holley It really helped me to get to sleep. Found it relaxing. Plus it gave me an excuse to sneak off to bed early and spend some time on my own. I would recommend the CD because I really did feel less nauseous, was sick less and managed to cope with smells a lot better. I'm sure things would have got worse and not better without the CD Cheryl Aubery The CD was effective against vomiting and good for relaxation Rebecca Farrington The CD helped me to get really restful sleep... I had not realised how tired I was until I slept well. Getting decent rest was the key element in breaking the cycle. I still feel queasy a lot of the time but I can cope with that. I am back at work and able to do things with my 3 yr old. I feel so much better emotionally because I am not tired and depressed about it all. Now I can look forward to me baby Joanne Jameson The images helped me feel so much calmer and relaxed Tracey Living

Author Information

Maggie didn't set out to become a birth expert - in fact, she's an unlikely convert. She was a busy international sales executive who only reluctantly attended a self hypnosis course to help her with her first birth. But she was blown away by the mind's ability to control the body's response to pain and 3 months later, she had a peaceful, manageable birth at home without so much as a paracetamol - to the surprise of her and her NHS midwife who said: Maggie appeared to be 'sleeping' during most of her contractions, breathing slightly more deeply as they peaked. She used no pharmacological methods of pain relief and conducted her labour and delivery entirely under self-hypnosis. She appeared to experience no pain and very little discomfort. It was the turning point in her life. Inspired by her experiences, she trained to become a clinical hypnotherapist and left her job to pursue her new life goal: to teach other women the techniques which help them have a positive birth. The result was Natal Hypnotherapy(t), the UK's leading provider of hypnosis for childbirth. The philosophy is simple: to help women have a better birth. Maggie's work is revolutionising women's birth experiences by teaching them to overcome fear and work with their bodies during birth. Maggie says: In our society, fear has become the overriding emotion pregnant women feel about childbirth - something fuelled by TV depictions and horror stories other mums love to tell. We have not been brought up to see birth as a positive thing, so we've lost confidence in our own ability to give birth naturally and so go into it fearful and anxious - feelings which cause much of the pain and complications in birth. The facts speak for themselves: Natal Hypnotherapy(t) users have an average caesarean rate up to half the national average and are recommended by 97% of users. Medical research has repeatedly found that hypnosis reduces surgical intervention, use of pain medication, mum's pain perception, and labour times. Maggie says: This could revolutionise the way women give birth. If we could give every pregnant woman in the UK a Natal Hypnotherapy(t) CD to listen to we could save the NHS a fortune and change birthing culture! It may not be on prescription yet, but Maggie's work is already changing the birthing world. Thanks to Maggie, effective birth preparation is no longer only available for those with the luxury of money and time. Her range of self-hypnosis CDs for pregnancy and birth, and new book effective birth preparation - your practical guide to a better birth are accessible for everyone, and designed to fit into a hectic life. From terrified teenage mums to women planning their sixth home birth, the techniques have helped women from all walks of life have a more positive birth. Today, Maggie has personally trained over 500 midwives, has a network of practitioners who teach the techniques in comprehensive workshops all over the country, regularly appears as a birth expert across the media, and has used the techniques for the births of each of her five sons plus helping in excess of 100,000 women have a better pregnancy and birth experience!
