Welcome to...
Imagine ...
... a world in which pregnancy and birth are respected as a natural process, a wonderful time in a
woman's life when she begins to transform from individual to mother, nurturing a brand new life inside
of her. Imagine a world in which women enjoy this journey feeling confident in their ability to grow,
birth, and protect this new life, empowered throughout this process and surrounded by only joy, love,
and encouragement as she becomes a mother, whether for the first time or the tenth time. This is my
wish for every mother and the gift Hypnobabies offers.

Hypnobabies® Course Specifics
Hypnobabies® is a 6-week complete childbirth education course and a course in self-hypnosis forchildbirth, based on Gerald Kein's Painless Childbirth techniques. Classes are divided into one 3.5-hour
class per week, totaling 21 in-class hours of childbirth and self-hypnosis preparation for your beautiful
birth!
Hypnobabies® focuses on educating mothers on how to stay healthy and low risk during pregnancy, the
physiology and process of birth, and teaches self-hypnosis techniques that will retrain the inner mind to
experience the sensations of labor and birth as only pressure and tightening.
One of the key components of Hypnobabies® is our use of hypno-anesthesia, the same hypnosis
techniques used by people who are allergic to or otherwise unable to use medical anesthesia.
Hypnobabies® has the most rigorous standards for instructors and takes pride in our ability to offer you
a successful and caring experience. All Certified Hypnobabies® Instructors have been training in both
Hypnosis and Childbirth Education and have a passion for working with expectant mothers and couples
who want to give their precious babies the best start in life with a gentle and easy birth.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q) Should I take a Hypnobabies® class or do the home study course?
A) Our Hypnobabies® Home Study Course for Expectant Mothers is being used with great success by
mothers all over the world right now, and it contains the same basic curriculum, hypnosis scripts and
cues, but we suggest that anyone who is near a Hypnobabies® Instructor take our Hypnobabies® Class
with a Certified Hypnobabies® Instructor (HCHI certified). The benefits of attending a Hypnobabies®
Class include:
Our Birthing Rehearsal in Class #6, which is invaluable for helping each Hypno-Mom fully understand
and experience their Hypnobabies® techniques in a birthing scenario, complete with Birth Balls,
changing positions, walking etc. It is also great practice for the Birth Partner to use his deepening cues
and techniques that help the mom so wonderfully during labor. This helps build the confidence level of
Mom and the Birth Partner tremendously.
And……from our VP Carole Thorpe:
“I would add FUN!!! A lot of kidding and just plain silliness happens in my Hypnobabies® classes.
Camaraderie is not to be underestimated. Generally, I have noticed that some of the birth partners show
up to Class One and exhibit the body language/attitude of "OHMIGOSH!...what has my wife gotten me
into now?!" The classroom setting with other couples helps them to see that they are not alone in this
"different" way to help their wife have their baby. It is helpful to hypno-dads/birth partners to see that
Hypnobabies® can be beautiful and effective, and also enjoyable.”
If you find that you are not close enough to take one of my live classes, or that your schedule will not
allow you to take a course, the Home Study option might work well for you.
Q) What is the difference between Hypnobabies® and a regular hypno-birthing class?
A) Please see our Hypnobabies® Difference (on this page) for information on this very important
question. You can also click here for a first hand perspective on Hypnobabies vs. another hypnosis for
childbirth program.
Q) When should I start Hypnobabies® Classes?
A) Anytime! Some women take classes early in their pregnancy, and practicing Hypnobabies® helps
them to be relaxed, comfortable and confident for the rest of their pregnancies. Others start later, at 6 or
7 months, when they know they can devote 30-40 minutes daily to practicing.
Q) Can my Birth Partner come to Hypnobabies® Class with me?
A) Yes! We teach the Birth Partner right along with our Hypno-Moms - what hypnosis is, (they
experience it in class and get their own Birth Partner’s hypnosis CD, to keep them calm and relaxed
about pregnancy and childbirth!) and how to support and help our Hypno-moms during pregnancy the
birthing itself and after the baby comes. They participate fully in each class, and with each hypnosis
script.
Q) Will I be able to move around and be awake, and aware of my body and my baby during my
labor, using hypnosis?
A) Absolutely! Being in Hypnobabies’ “Eyes Open Childbirth Hypnosis" is not like being asleep or
detached from the sensations of your baby’s birth. You are awake and aware of everything going on
around you, and you experience baby’s every movement. You remain deeply in hypnosis, confident and
calm, even while moving and changing positions. Your Hypnobabies® hypno-anesthesia allows you to
experience all the power of childbirth without the discomfort.
Q) How does hypnosis for childbirth work?
A) Short version: Like computer data entry. If you want to create a document to use later, you open one,
enter the text and save the contents in a “file”, then give the file a name. Later, when you want to edit
that document, you find the file name and open it, add to the document text and save it again. When
you are completely finished with your document, you find the file by its name, complete and ready, and
print it out for your use.
In Hypnobabies® , our “files” are our medical hypno-anesthesia “scripts” in the form of CD tracks and
paper scripts, and all you have to do is *listen* to them. In doing so, you train your inner mind, just like
entering text, what to accept. Each week, you add a little bit of training, just like the text in your
document, and your inner mind creates a new belief system about childbirth. It accepts that the normal
birthing sensations that you will have when you give birth; pushing, pulling, stretching, pressure
sensations, will indeed be there, but without discomfort attached to them. You train it to accept cues and
techniques to bring you deeper into relaxation and hypnosis, and when you use them on your birthing
day, just like printing out your document, they are there for you automatically! Your mind is very
powerful and is capable of creating the deepest physical relaxation possible as well as a very comfortable
birthing experience. Use it!
A) Long version: You can listen to the Introduction to Hypnobabies® track (link above), with a 20
minute explanation of what hypnosis and Hypnobabies® are, and a the wonderful “Relax Me” hypnosis
session (link above), which allows you to actually experience deep relaxation and a hypnotic state, as
well as learn a special cue that trains you to become calm and relaxed in any situation, which you can
use for the rest of your life! You may also contact me for a free copy of these two tracks on CD.

Mother Using Hypnobabies
Quote from the Family - "Our first child was born at home, posterior and acynclitic (she came sunnyside
up and head cocked to the side---usually results in long labors and c-section in hospital). Thanks to
Hypnobabies (and lots of practice before hand) the birth was easy and fast.
Alicia is getting close to transition in this video but you can see how calm she feels and how focused she
is...she's just riding the birthing wave (contraction) out. The whole birth was like this."
Hypnobabies Birth
Quote from the HypnoMom - "I'm using hypnobabies hypnosis techniques to stay completely comfortable
during birthing. Also, my baby is posterior and I'm using the belly lift technique which reduced the
intensity of my surges tremendously."

Temple Olson sings while having pressure waves (contractions) during the home birth of her 10-lb. son.
The song she is singing is Psalm 23, written by her husband Michael Olson. Temple is using

Quote from HypnoMom and Hypnobabies Instructor, Sheridan - "I used hypnosis while having Bryson.
He was my 3rd baby and 2nd VBAC. I wanted a natural childbirth, but was nervous about the pain. I
used Hypnobabies www.hypnobabies.com and had a completely unmedicated AND comfortable birth. It
was so empowering." (www.pregnancybirthandbabies.com)
