How a newborn baby’s innate instincts for survival are able to kick in when we provide the time and space for them to do so 💜 💕

There’s something unspeakably beautiful and life affirming about giving birth with confidence and a deep sense of trust in your body, your baby and in the present moment as it unfolds.
This was my experience of birthing the second time around.

I credit HypnoBirthing 💯 with helping me have a totally different experience from my first experience of giving birth. Back then I was caught up in uncertainty and had no clue of how perfectly my body and baby were designed to birth gently and easily and that actually I could let go and trust in this design.
The second time around, my mind was quiet, my central nervous system was settled and I knew that I had everything I needed to support me throughout. It was truly a magical experience that myself and my husband will be forever grateful for 💕🤰🏻💕

I know my experience is totally possible for you too. That is why I’m so passionate about every woman getting to experience the birth that they were meant to.

So, you’d like to know more about

💜 The proven benefits and unrivalled content of the original internationally acclaimed HypnoBirthing course
💜 How using HypnoBirthing can help you to bring your baby into the world confidently, calmly and gently (whether it’s your first pregnancy or your fifth! )

I’d love to hear from you.

You can DM me privately or via my website for a free no obligation chat or an online taster session to find out more 🥰

A beautiful book about childbirth by Ina May Gaskin that I recommend that my HypnoBirthing Mums & Dads read alongside the official HypnoBirthing book by Marie Mongan. The latter is provided as part of the course materials for my hypnobirthing classes 😊💜

Based on the female-centered Midwifery Model of Care and drawing upon her decades of experience, Ina May Gaskin gives expectant mothers comprehensive information on everything from the all-important mind-body connection to how to give birth without technological intervention. Filled wi...

My HypnoBirthing Experience

I gave birth to my two sons within 3 years of one another. The first time, I experienced uncertainty and anxiety throughout and this made it a very painful and stressful experience. Despite my husband’s best efforts to help me and the midwives’ words of encouragement, I was so not relaxed at all 😵‍💫
I was so excited to become a mum and fell completely in love with my baby son as soon as I laid eyes on him❤️but to be honest I felt completely exhausted. He meanwhile was very unsettled after the birth and it look a few weeks for him to fully settle🥹 I just assumed at the time that this was normal.

My second birth experience 3 years later came after I had had the good fortune to discover HypnoBirthing. My experience was complete the opposite - I overcame my fears, I felt calm and at ease because I knew exactly how to work with my body. My husband knew how best to support me and we made a great team.
The result?
A much more comfortable, empowering experience and the gentlest of arrivals into the world of our second baby boy who was such a laid back, calm baby right from the start. ✨💞

Zachary’s was the first HypnoBirth at Rotherham Hospital and none of the midwives who witnessed it could believe their eyes. They were excitedly discussing it for weeks afterwards according to a good friend of mine who worked within the Maternity service at the hospital at that time.

HypnoBirthing had such a life changing impact on me that I became determined to share its magic with others. So, I qualified as a HypnoBirthing practitioner during my maternity leave and I am honoured to have taught the course in South Yorkshire and online to hundreds of couples both in groups and privately.

I invite anyone who would like to consider HypnoBirthing for their baby’s birth to a FREE introductory taster session on Zoom.
The next Taster is coming up next Thursday at 19:30hrs so if you’d like to find out more please DM me to reserve your spot. You’ll be so glad you did, I promise 💫 💜💫
If you can’t make this taster let me know and we can arrange a future date that suits you better✨
HypnoBirthing is a game changer.

I was so moved today to receive this beautiful testimonial from Lotta & Sam from Lancashire who attended my HypnoBirthing classes late last year🥹

They very recently welcomed their gorgeous baby son Finnley into the world ✨🩵✨

They describe how well the classes not only prepared them for labour and birth but how the positive ripples from their experience continue to extend out into their relationship with one another and with their baby after the birth 🥰
💫Hypnobirthing really is a cup that keeps on giving 💫

Here’s their story, in their own words:

“ Our beautiful boy was born in October 2024 & we are so thankful to Clare for imparting to us this invaluable knowledge that is Hypnobirthing! For anyone who is in two minds about HypnoBirthinv we can now say with confidence: go for it because it will give you the tools to manage any emotions that arise before and during your birth experience.
Moreover, you will be with someone who also has learned and experienced HypnoBiryhing herself and will be there holding that space with you.

I had had a good pregnancy so I was confident in my ability to birth a child safely, however.. as the time approached and it started to feel very real I wanted to understand the physiology of birthing and prepare for every eventuality as this was my first time giving birth, at the age of 42! Also, some friends had vouched for the Marie Mongan HypnoBirthing®️ course as ‘the original, one-and-only’ HB course and this is what Clare delivers.

We had quite a drive to South Yorkshire from Lancashire. But it was all worth it as we got to know Clare and immerse ourselves in the course content.
Clare is such a warm person and very quickly made us feel at ease.
Not only will you learn about the physiology of birth, relaxation techniques and self-hypnosis but very importantly about your rights whether birthing at hospital, birth centre or home. It felt empowering arriving at the birth centre with our personal birth plan knowing that my partner and I were in control of our birth experience.

I birthed our son in the birthing pool to the point of crowning. Just in the final instance medical intervention was necessary as the little guy was discovered to be in back-to-back position so a forceps delivery was required right at the end. Thanks to the calming effects of HB, I remained completely calm and thus always felt in control of my emotions during what could otherwise have been a scary experience.

While birthing our son we listened to the Rainbow Relaxation many times as this was our favourite from the HB tool kit. We had listened to it daily during the pregnancy and its amazing how it immediately takes you to that calming, safe space. We still listen to it some nights when we are in need of a fast pass to sleepy lands! We also loved the breathing techniques that we learned together and my partner could breathe with me during labour which was a wonderful way of connecting in those moments.

Our Hypnobirthing journey didn’t end when our son came into this world. I strongly believe that because we had had such a powerful birth experience as a couple, that energy and empowerment carried on into our home environment where we continue to parent and support each other as a solid team!

We thank you Clare for such a brilliant and informative course.”

My private and group classes are ongoing and I’d love to hear from you if you’re interested in finding out more about them.

Truth vs What We Think is True

What if what we think is true about something or someone is only ever just our mind's own version of events?
What if what seems to us to be rock solid reality is simply a mind-created representation of what is actually going on based on a merger of meanings, associations and concepts innocently acquired through the course of our lives and affected in each moment by our changing moods, state of mind and the opinions and values of those around us?
What if we deeply saw that nothing we ever think is The Truth?
That in truth, we could think anything about anything in any moment?
What difference could this make to how seriously we treat our mind's dramatic storytelling, worrying and predictions about ourselves, other people, what happened yesterday, what could happen next Tuesday? Would it make sense to stay suffering in our version of events when the cause of that suffering is completely made up?

I'd love to hear from you about whether this resonates and what you see in this?
If you'd like to chat or explore the implications of this understanding further with me, please let me know :))
