HypnoBirthing as an audio book: Marie F. Mongan's obstetrics bestseller is published for the first time as an unabridged reading

The standard work " HypnoBirthing " by the US educator Marie F. Mongan († 2019), which has been available in German translation for many years, has now been recorded as an audio book by two experienced speakers. HypnoBirthing, which is also popular with celebrity mothers, makes it even easier to have a safe, gentle and easy birth.

Prominent followers of the Mongan method

Hollywood stars such as Angelina Jolie and Jessica Alba, as well as the British heir to the throne, Kate and William, have reported that they relied on HypnoBirthing when giving birth to their children, using special breathing, relaxation and concentration exercises to prepare for the most important event in their lives. The fear of many women having a difficult birth is still deeply rooted in our culture. The result is an extreme physical and psychological state of tension, the effects of which, such as muscle cramps, circulatory problems or the release of stress hormones, trigger the reactions that make birth so painful.

The Mongan method systematically reduces this fear using self-hypnosis techniques, including those from traumatic births. This means that many pains do not arise in the first place, the expectant mother can relax deeply and her body can do its job much better. The program described in this audio book is not manipulation, but a natural way to make birth easier and to bring a child into the world full of confidence, relaxed, gentle and peaceful.

What is HypnoBirthing?

The educator and former college director Marie F. Mongan (1933-2019) herself – after two doctor-dominated, “powerless” birth experiences – gave birth to her third and fourth child in the gentle way from which she later developed the techniques for HypnoBirthing.

Since the mid-1950s, she has been working on various methods to avoid the anxiety-tenseness-pain syndrome, but it was only her involvement in hypnotherapy that led to the decisive approach: she realized that self-hypnosis achieves the level of relaxation that enables a painless birth. From her own experiences and intensive study of the "philosophy" of birth, a program for revitalizing and using natural resources and for involving both partners in the birth experience was developed in 1989.

The natural way to a safe and easy birth has already proven itself for tens of thousands of parents, and thousands of certified course leaders from all over the world now give birth preparation courses. HypnoBirthing courses explain a stress-free birthing method that focuses entirely on how to learn the art of "letting go" in order to experience birth calmly and relaxed.

The path to a happy birth

The HypnoBirthing program helps mothers to regain their trust in nature and in themselves. The message that giving birth is completely normal is crucial for all families who want to bring their children into the world peacefully, calmly and safely. The support and bond that develops during the birth process gives the partnership a depth that cannot be expressed in words. Many couples report that this has brought them closer together than they ever thought possible. Knowing that they are supported by a loving and caring partner is one of the main factors that ensure the emotional well-being of the expectant mother and her baby.

This bestseller, now available for the first time as an audio book , shows how parents-to-be can connect with their unborn child and develop a deeper understanding of their baby as a conscious, small person who can communicate even before birth. With the help of relaxation and visualization techniques, mothers and fathers learn how to adjust their bodies and minds to make the birth experience happy and fulfilling.
