Imagine a world where every life began with a Hypnobirth

In a quantum holographic universe where we are all connected, each baby who is born in a safe calm environment full of love and wonderment at creation, will be another ripple in the wave that changes the world.

We believe all mothers have an innate ability to breathe their babies into the world with confidence and inner strength, harnessed through the power of Hypnobirthing.

Ideal Time to Attend Classes?

The most important consideration is that you have time to learn the hypnobirthing techniques before you birth so any time during your pregnancy is possible!  However, when you are anywhere from 20 to 30 weeks pregnant is the ideal time for you to complete your Hypnobirthing Course.  We recommend this time period because you are still reasonably comfortable and it will give you the most time to practice before the birth of your baby.  If you are beyond 30 you will still benefit greatly from coming along to a course so please contact us with any questions or to reserve your place in an upcoming course.
