HypnoBirthing – for fear free birth
HypnoBirthing – birth has always been best in a trance
Essay by HP Psych Franziska Olm
We have always given birth. This natural power and ability is given to us women if we are allowed to do as we please.
If we follow the body with its signals, if we read, understand and follow the body, if the atmosphere around us is as we need it: protective, loving, affirming.
We have had this gift within us for thousands of years.
Birth is a gift – devotion to life.
No matter which place a woman chooses to experience her birth, these conditions of “letting ourselves be as we women want” can be created as well as possible in the external environment. If this is not the case, we create the internal environment with self-hypnosis. The brain is magical, it can do this.
The feeling of “being protected” doesn’t care whether it really is like that or “only the imagination”.
After all, the feeling is there in the imagination.
Birth trance.
A birth requires the knowledge of a supportive birth atmosphere.
To give birth, you need to read and understand your own body.
For a birth, you need your birth partner to listen sympathetically to you during pregnancy in order to discover and understand your personal tasks and apply them during the birth.
Birth requires the energy of flowing breath.
Trust is needed for a birth.
Birth requires intuition and the wonder of allowing yourself to be surprised.
Last but not least, to close the circle, a birth needs the binding love for the baby in the belly, which is born and gives birth to itself at the same time.
Birth is teamwork.
Teamwork of all mental, physical and spiritual forces.
The aim is to allow nature to work its magic on mother and child so that interventions are not used and the mother can give birth in peace, even in a “full clinic” or with the “long journey to the birth center”.

Franziska Olm and HypnoBirthing
Your mind also receives knowledge from your emotional body memory
“I don’t impose the HypnoBirthing method on any woman or couple in a purely technical sense.
I look very closely at what she brings to the table, what we can use and
and adapt the HypnoBirthing tools to suit the pregnant woman and her
and the person accompanying her during the birth.
I favor bodytalk – a form of communication that makes for a self-determined birth.
What is the body telling me? How can I respond to the body myself? What do I need from the outside to do my body good?
A training course takes place:
“Reading – understanding – strengthening natural birth wisdom in the body” and.
“Strengthening the muscle of mental power that supports the birthing body”.
The mind receives knowledge and so does the emotional body memory.
In this way, birth is not completely unknown, but has been pre-trained with calm.”
Franziska’s specialty as a hypnosis expert and actress:
“Mental alignment and an easy way into self-hypnosis are important to me.
We practise together and I pay close attention to a harmonious relationship between body language (bodytalk), breathing and vocal sound in the chosen birth positions.”
