Some people do not want to come out of hypnosis - enjoying the feeling or can't be bothered to open their eyes. MYTH: Deep hypnosis is necessary for good results Not true. Any level of hypnosis can bring good results. In fact if the hypnosis is too deep you may be "dreamy" and unable to differentiate between fantasy and reality. HYPNOSIS FOR CHILDBIRTHMargaret Silander can facilitate a more natural childbirth,
using hypnosis. Hypnotherapy gives a remarkable degree of
control over the mind and body, enabling a reduction in
pain, fear and anxiety while in labour, creating a calmer
experience and a less stressed baby. Only four sessions are required, including the initial consultation. The husband/partner is included in one session - to establish from both parents-to-be their needs and expectations during the birth and to give the partner the opportunity to experience hypnosis. Most of the hypnotherapy is continued by the mother-to-be with the use of CDs at home in her own time and way. ADVANTAGES OF HYPNOSIS FOR CHILDBIRTHIt is well established that hypnosis reduces the first stage of labour. Using hypnosis reduces pain during delivery and if analgesic is required, a reduced amount of the drug is effective. Glove anaesthesia is taught during the self-hypnosis sessions. Due to relaxation during the final stages of labour, there
is very little tearing as no hard anxious pushing has been
necessary. If an It is possible to convert a breech presentation to the vertex position using hypnosis. With more control over the mind and body, the mother can participate in the natural birth process and is more able to enjoy the experience of giving birth. It is more likely the mother will be calmer and happier, she will feel less mentally and physically exhausted, and there may be a reduced possibility of post natal depression. Babies have shown to cry less, sleep and feed better and generally are calmer. This is probably due to diminished trauma at birth. Lactation can be stimulated, increasing the flow, by suggestion.

Hypnosis is a lot like daydreaming. When you daydream
you alter your state of consciousness and let your mind
wander, into fantasies. All the time you are conscious
and aware yet you remain oblivious to external distractions.
In hypnosis, like daydreaming, you are conscious and aware,
yet remain oblivious to external distractions. In hypnosis
your conscious mind becomes quiet or passive and allows
access to the subconscious, a powerful part of the mind.
The Hypnotherapist is thus able to introduce positive suggestions
into the subconscious mind.
