Straight from the HypnoBirthing®International Website:
HypnoBirthing® is a tried and proven technique, as well as a philosophy that guides and prepares a woman in giving birth in a peaceful and extraordinarily beautiful manner. It is a program that considers the psychological, as well as the physical, well-being of the mother, her birth partner, and the newborn, independent of context, whether that be in the quiet of a home, a hospital, or a birth center.
The HypnoBirthing® program is built around an educational process that includes special breathing, relaxation, visualization, meditative practice, attention to nutrition, and positive body toning. Most importantly it fosters an air of mutual respect for the birthing family, as well as the healthcare provider in a traditional healthcare system or an alternative setting.
We know you have many choices and many decisions to make for your birthing experience. You have choices in selecting your care provider; you have choices in selecting the environment in which you will bring your baby into the world. Another important choice is that of the childbirth education classes you will choose to prepare for the birth of your baby. We know you will be happy with your choice of HypnoBirthing®, a premium childbirth education program.
Hack My Patent: Pregnancy Sleep System
LEARN HOW YOU CAN HAVE THE BEST SLEEP WHILE PREGNANT!
45 MINUTE ZOOM CLASS WITH THE WELL FOR WOMEN
How The Pregnancy Sleep System Idea Was Born
As soon as I began hearing from clients about their struggles with discomfort at night and the limited solutions available on the market, I knew I had to take action. That's why, in 2011, I set out to create a pregnancy sleep system that would address all of the concerns I was hearing. Something that is fully customizable to each individual's body type and trimester.
After much research and development, I successfully designed and patented an ergonomic pregnancy sleep system that has since revolutionized the way expectant mothers sleep. With a focus on optimal comfort and support, this system is specifically tailored to meet the needs of pregnant bodies and ensure a restful night's sleep.
Making A Difference, One Pregnancy Sleep System At A Time
I'm proud to have created a solution that truly addresses the concerns of my clients during this special time in their life. We had over 200 pregnant beta testers rave about the game-changing impact this pregnancy sleep system has had on their comfort and sleep quality, and now you can experience it for yourself! We're excited to offer an open-source version of our design so that you can build your own personalized sleep system.
Take Our Class And Learn How to Sleep When Pregnant
Join our 45-minute class to learn the basics of sleep ergonomics and receive step-by-step guidance on assembling your perfect sleep system. We'll help you choose the right components to address any musculoskeletal issues you may be experiencing and ensure a comfortable, restful night's sleep. Plus, we'll answer all your questions during our Q&A session at the end of the class.
To get started, simply order the components you need based on your preferences and budget. We offer both cost-effective and upgraded versions, so you can mix and match to create your ideal sleep setup. So don't miss out on the opportunity to finally get the great sleep you deserve during this special time in your life!
From a HypnoBirthing® student at The Well:
"It was content-rich, both in the methods of HypnoBirthing and general birthing education. As an anxious mom, anything to help me release tension is so needed! The hypnosis techniques are great. We loved how Julie quickly seemed to get to know us and personalize her teaching to our circumstances. I feel like I have very useful tools to make me comfortable and relaxed, no matter what labor brings my way." ---Amy N.
