Hypnobirthing Workshop
· Natural Birth ·
Evidence shows that births where Hypnobirthing is practiced tend to be shorter and easier, with all the positive consequences this has for you and your baby.
This course helps you relax your body and mind to better cope with contractions and pushing. You will learn the most effective techniques for natural childbirth preparation. We primarily use hypnobirthing techniques that result in a controlled and less painful birth, helping to create a positive and empowering experience for you on the most important day.
You will need to put the learned techniques into practice, so we recommend doing it between weeks 27 and 36 of pregnancy. This course is designed to be done as a couple, but it will be equally beneficial for you if you prefer to do it alone.

Want to know more about Hypnobirthing?
It’s normal to have questions about what hypnobirthing is and if it’s right for you, so we’ve tried to compile the most frequent ones. We hope this FAQ answers all your questions:
What exactly is hypnobirthing?
When we talk about hypnobirthing, we are referring to a natural childbirth preparation technique, whose main objective is to help you relax your mind and body during labor.
You might ask, “Will I be hypnotized?” Of course not! Don’t worry. No one is hypnotized, but hypnosis principles are used to achieve a more positive outlook on your birth.
In hypnobirthing courses, we teach you relaxation techniques that you can use during labor to manage the situation as best as possible.
Additionally, during pregnancy, you listen to relaxation audios that you will also listen to during labor in their adapted version, so that the situation feels familiar and you can stay relaxed and in control.
This technique is continuously used abroad, in countries highly developed in natural childbirth, such as England, Australia, Holland, etc., where this type of birth is the most chosen by expectant mothers.
You only need to attend a good hypnobirthing course around week 30 of pregnancy and practice daily to be prepared for your birth.
If you wish to take this hypnobirthing course in Madrid, BelMums is the right place. We place great importance on this technique, and if you decide to do it, we want to always offer you the best service you can find.
Are there benefits to having a natural birth?
To the question of whether there are benefits to having a natural birth, the answer is Yes!
As I mentioned previously, natural birth is less harmful for mothers and babies. There is less fetal distress and fewer birth injuries for mothers, which means greater well-being for both, which is truly important.
Additionally, being less harmful for both mother and baby, postpartum recovery is faster and better. Mothers who have a natural birth often have a greater feeling of mother-child bonding and fewer postpartum depressions. Furthermore, there is a great feeling of empowerment for the woman, who after achieving this feels she can do anything.
How does hypnobirthing help during labor?
Hypnobirthing offers a unique tool by teaching women to channel positive energy and manage the stress associated with childbirth. By reducing the perception of pain and anxiety, a more relaxed environment is fostered, thus facilitating the progress of labor smoothly and calmly.
Are there risks associated with hypnobirthing?
When learned and practiced properly, hypnobirthing is safe and carries no significant risks. On the contrary, it can offer a more positive birth experience by reducing the need for medical interventions and promoting the mother’s emotional well-being.
Is hypnobirthing suitable for all women?
Although there is no single approach that works for everyone, hypnobirthing has proven effective for women of various ages and physical, and even medical, conditions. Its focus on relaxation and the mind allows it to adapt to each woman’s individual needs.
Can I practice hypnobirthing techniques on my own?
Resources exist for individual practice, such as our meditation audios, books, etc. However, it is highly recommended to learn the techniques with a trained midwife. This ensures that you master the necessary skills for a successful birth and make the most of the power of hypnobirthing.
When should I start practicing hypnobirthing?
Starting to learn and practice hypnobirthing techniques in mid to late pregnancy provides adequate time to familiarize yourself with the tools and build the necessary confidence for your birth day. That’s why we recommend starting around week 30.

How can partners participate in hypnobirthing?
Partner participation is not essential in hypnobirthing, but it is highly recommended. Learning relaxation techniques together and providing emotional support during labor not only strengthens the bond between the couple but also contributes to the relaxed and positive environment characteristic of hypnobirthing.
Are there contraindications for hypnobirthing?
Overall, hypnobirthing has proven to be a viable and beneficial option for all women.
