Hypnobirthing Seminar

Interested in learning more about Hypnobirthing?

HypnoBirthing® - The Mongan Method - is a unique method of relaxed, natural childbirth education, enhanced by self-hypnosis techniques. HypnoBirthing® provides the missing link that allows women to use their natural instincts to bring about a safer, easier, more comfortable birthing. Emphasis is placed on pregnancy and childbirth, as well as on pre-birth parenting and the consciousness of the pre-born baby.

You will learn how to trust your body and work with it using your own natural birthing instincts. 

Come and see if Hypnobirthing is the right choice for you by attending this FREE seminar.

July 23rd and August 30th at 7:00pm **Pre-registration is required
