In honour of International Women’s Day, I’m celebrating the efforts of a woman who has been instrumental in helping thousands of other women feel more comfortable standing in their own power and reclaiming their ability to have an easier, more comfortable birth. I’m also highlighting inequities still to be redressed – a woman’s right to give birth where she chooses and the right for a midwife to attend and assist at a home birth.
Last year, I lost 40 lbs working with Carolyn Arnold and I’ve kept it off… It’s been 15 months since we worked together, and in that entire time, I haven’t done any emotional eating. I enjoy my food, but it isn’t required to comfort me. I don’t find myself standing in front of the cupboard wanting to eat something to make the anxiety go away… Carolyn’s hypnosis broke the link between comfort and eating. I highly recommend her.
This family of 3 have just completed 4 weeks of HypnoSlimmer, reducing by 77cm between them in a month. In a few months, I’ll post an update so you can see how they’re getting on.

I’d love to encourage other mums-to-be to use hypnobirthing if I can! I saw a different midwife again today and apparently I’m the talk of the community because of how relaxed I was during the home part!!
I just wanted to let you know how well the birth went and to say THANK YOU for taking us through the hypnobirthing course as it played a huge part in our successful birth.
ps – Michael used the breathing techniques to help him relax just before his driving test and passed first time!
I am absolutely positive that the hypnobirthing helped hugely. It was really not that painful at all, I had no desire for any other form of pain relief and was cool as a cucumber
Been a month now! Feel so much healthier!
Thank you so much for your help. My children are very pleased I quit!
Thank you for the support you gave us on the Hypnobirthing course – I truly feel that although my birth experience was not necessarily what I planned I have no regrets and feel that I used many of the techniques we learned to experience E’s birth in a much more calm and positive way than I might have done otherwise.
Last week saw some intense media coverage of HypnoBirthing, thanks to the start of clinical trials into hypnosis for childbirth in the NHS in Northwest England.
The trials are aiming to teach pregnant women self hypnosis techniques over 2 60-90…

I am a woman who has had a candy drawer filled with all kinds of candy my entire adult life. Now the drawer is used for pens, and pencils. Carolyn I do believe the hypnosis is working, each and everyday.
I’m sure that you can all reel off the most common suggestions for getting labour to start when you’re either under threat of being induced, or (not so common with HypnoBirthing mums) just a bit fed up with being pregnant.…
If your aim is to have as natural a childbirth experience as possible, then being induced is something best avoided unless medically necessary. For some mums-to-be, there may be no effect on the pace of labour, but for many,the onset…
Late December and early January is peak time for everyone to bombard you with adverts and offers about jumping on the diet bandwagon…slimming clubs know those new year resolutions will have crowds lining up time and time again.
