| | When to listen to the CDFrom 32 weeks 2-3 times per week, from 37 weeks daily How the Birth Preparation (Hospital / Birth Center) CD works Join the increasing number of women who listen to this safe and easy to use CD to prepare emotionally, physically and mentally for childbirth. By listening to the CD during pregnancy, you are effectively rehearsing the way you will act both physically as well as emotionally during the birthing process. The CD is divided into 3 tracks. The first gives information on how best to use the CD. The second is a 10 minute relaxation, followed by a 25 minute birth visualisation. The 35 minute audio CD takes you through deep relaxation and breathing exercises followed by a detailed guided visualisation of the birth, from the first contraction through to holding your baby in your arms.
Remember, pain in labour is predominantly the result of tension in your body, and tension is the result of fear. By rehearsing an instinctive natural birth over and over again in your mind, any fear of the birth becomes less and less as your mind and body become familiar with the instinctive process of birthing. So once you have taken away the fear, your body will be far more relaxed, so by removing the tension, you will naturally reduce the pain.
The CD teaches you deep relaxation and breathing exercises as well as powerful pain management strategies which enable you to be calm, in control and to manage the level of pain during the birth.
It gives you the opportunity to "experience" a wonderful, calm birth in your mind, from the first contraction through to holding your baby in your arms. Once you have listened to the CD many times (we recommend you listen to it at least 20 times), your mind and body become more and more comfortable with the concept of a calm birth. As the mind does not know the difference between imagination and reality, once labour actually starts your mind simply responds in the way it has rehearsed over and over again.
The suggestions on the CD put in place specific triggers so that all the way through the birthing process, you remain calm, relaxed and feeling in control. The CD contains specific suggestions based on birthing in the hospital environment. These include using the sights, smells and sounds of the hospital in a positive way to maximize your sense of calm, relaxation and being in control eg "every time a new face walks in, it is a sign for me to feel more confident in my body", " the sounds and smells of the hospital encourage me to feel even more relaxed and centered." | | |

When to listen to the Relaxing Birth Music | |
| | | Mums can benefit by listening throughout the labour and by also listening to the music at any time after the baby has been born. Many mums have reported that their babies also calm down when listening to the music. This is because the baby has heard the same music many times whilst in the womb and they find familiar sounds calming. How the Relaxing Birth Music CD works The Relaxing Birth Music CD is the same background music that is on each of the other CDs in the Natal Hypnotherapy range. This acts as an additional powerful trigger for a deep state of relaxation during the labour to support the mum with the techniques she has learned, her breathing and her visualisations.
