Tranceforming Childbirth with Tina Taylor (2 cds)

The tracks on these CDs are based on Tina's childbirth classes, teaching women how to utilities their own inner resources – their instincts whilst having their babies. Based on the work of Dr Grantly Dick Read an English doctor from the 1920's who noticed that woman who had easy births appeared to be in a trance like state, he said that this was due to extreme relaxation. It has long been accepted that the use of self-hypnosis in childbirth reduces the length of labour; this is due to the deep relaxed states that hypnosis can help you to achieve a level of relaxation that can influence your physiological experience. By practicing the techniques on these CDs when it is time for your baby to be born you will be able to achieve a deeply relaxed state. These techniques will also be invaluable to you throughout your life, teaching you have to relax and reduce stress levels. Hypnosis has also proved to be effective in reducing blood pressure. One of Tina's clients who had problems with her blood pressure during pregnancy wrote ''I've just come back from my third antenatal appointment and my blood pressure has lowered each time by using the techniques you taught me. Our mid-wife was astonished and made a note of how relaxed I am now in her notes''.
