HypnoBirthing promotes a calm, peaceful and natural birth. Local Mum Leila Gardiner, founder of Inspiring Births, explains how using it for her second birth made her a dedicated follower.
Having had one traumatic birth without any tools to help in pregnancy and labour Leila Gardiner was keen to have a better experience with baby number two and went on to have an amazing water birth at home.
"I am absolutely passionate about a woman’s amazing ability to perform the miracle of birth," explains Leila, who has founded Inspiring Births based on the principles of HypnoBirthing. "My second birth was one of my proudest, most joyful achievements, it was so inspiring. I was so moved by my second birth that I set up Inspiring Births in 2008."
Leila works as an Obstetrics and Gynaecology Sonographer as well as being a part-time hypnotherapist and HypnoBirthing antenatal teacher running Inspiring Births in Reigate.
"I now combine my medical knowledge with my comprehensive hypnotherapy and psychotherapy training," says Leila. "I use this knowledge and training to assist mothers in achieving a calmer birthing experience through the HypnoBirthing philosophy of childbirth."
Royal connections
HypnoBirthing is a unique method of relaxed, childbirth education, enhanced by self-hypnosis techniques and has recently been chosen by The Duchess of Cambridge as her birth preparation of choice.
"HypnoBirthing provides the missing link that allows women to bring about a safer, easier, more comfortable birthing," explains Leila. "The uplifting feeling from my job is priceless!"
HypnoBirthing requires a minimum of 12 hours of tuition, spread over five weeks for maximum benefit. Leila offers a personalised approach and offers free monthly coffee mornings and free monthly refresher sessions. She also offers on-going support if needed, via email or phone till new mothers' birthing day and beyond.
So if you are keen to experience childbirth in a natural, relaxed and enjoyable way why not give Leila a call?
