The "YOU-METHOD" 

With so many approaches and methods available to pregnant women, it can be overwhelming to choose a birth preparation course and doula. Using one specific approach may help some but not others. Many of these organizations use pyramid schemes and sell their "unique methods", teachers often have to pay fees to be on a list, have to sell certain books, etc.

Instead, I recognize that every expecting parent is unique, and I am committed to supporting you in finding what works best for you. I do not believe in imposing a particular method on you and blaming you if it does not work.

This course does not limit itself to a single method. Instead, it draws upon the best aspects of different approaches and guides you on a journey of self-discovery to determine what suits you best. The course is independent and will help you transform your intuition into knowledge through discovery, learning, and practicing. 

The "YOU-METHOD" means that I support you in identifying what you need.

Two widely known methods that are partly integrated are hypnobirthing and active birth.

One of the central principles of hypnobirthing is the connection between the mind and body. The practice assumes that the mind and body are intimately linked, and that the mental and emotional states of the mother can affect the physiological processes of labor and delivery. By using hypnobirthing techniques to promote relaxation and focus, women can work with their bodies during labor, rather than feeling like they are fighting against it. The most central parts that teach hypnobirthing are videos about hormones during birth (2.9.-2.11.), relaxation techniques from hypnobirthing (3.1.-3.3. & 3.5.-3.9.), the mind-body connection, and positive reinforcement (7.1., 7.2. & 7.5.-7.10.).

Active birth is an approach to childbirth that emphasizes the mother's active involvement during labor and delivery. It encourages women to move around, change positions, and use non-medical techniques to manage pain and facilitate birthing. Active birth principles are based on the idea that by working with the physiological processes of labor, women can have a more positive childbirth experience. The course also includes an explanation of how to use the techniques associated with active birth alongside medical pain relief such as an epidural. The most central chapter for active birth methods is Chapter 8. 

No, I am not affiliated with any hypnobirthing organization. However, I do believe that many parts of hypnobirthing are really amazing. I am certified in hypnobirthing, so I have incorporated many elements of it into the course.

Hypnobirthing emerged as part of the natural birth movement, which opposed the prevailing trend of medicated births where women were often unable to recall their experience, and forceps were frequently used. Understanding its historical context helps to acknowledge its legitimacy, but it is important to recognize that some aspects of hypnobirthing are outdated, but are anyway taught in many of the "original" hypnobirthing courses. The following are some problematic aspects: 

1. In older hypnobirthing books, there are statements suggesting that birth only hurts if a woman fails to follow hypnobirthing techniques correctly. This implies that any pain experienced during childbirth is the woman's fault. Such claims are not conducive to a supportive and empowering environment.

2. Some medical aspects of hypnobirthing are not evidence-based. For example, there may be claims in certain books that consuming enough leafy greens ensures sufficient vitamin K levels in breast milk to prevent Vitamin K deficiency bleeding. However, research contradicts this claim.

3. In my opinion, acknowledging and discussing pain is important. Some hypnobirthing methods completely disregard the topic of pain. While it is beneficial not to fixate solely on pain, omitting its discussion may lead to inadequate preparation, especially for first-time mothers.

4. Hypnobirthing sometimes falls short in providing practical tools like movement, use of voice, and being active, which many women find crucial during childbirth.

5. The notion that a calm birth and being quiet during birth are desirable is problematic. Some women find it helpful to vocalize and make sounds during birth, and it can be a valuable coping mechanism. Women should feel empowered to express themselves in whatever way feels right to them. The idea that women must always be quiet and conform to societal expectations of being a "good girl" should be a thing of the past.

6. Importantly, I do not appreciate that most hypnobirthing courses claim to be suitable for any type of birth but then use language in their relaxation techniques that exclusively focus on natural birth. For instance, phrases like "you will have a natural, calm, and serene birth" can induce guilt or inadequacy in individuals who prefer or require a different birth approach because of preferences or due to medical reasons.

Despite these concerns, there are numerous exceptional doulas and birth educators who teach hypnobirthing. I believe that many aspects of hypnobirthing are valuable, which is why I have integrated them into this course. One of the central principles of hypnobirthing is the connection between the mind and body. The practice assumes that the mind and body are intimately linked and that the mental and emotional states of the mother can affect the physiological processes of labor and delivery. By using hypnobirthing techniques to promote relaxation and focus, women can work with their bodies during labor, rather than feeling like they are fighting against it. The most central parts that teach hypnobirthing are videos about hormones during birth (2.9.-2.11.), relaxation techniques from hypnobirthing (3.1.-3.3. & 3.5.-3.9.), the mind-body connection, and positive reinforcement (7.1., 7.2. & 7.5.-7.10.).
