HYPNOSIS FOR BIRTHING Being in a profoundly relaxed state can help to shorten the labor. One of the reasons for this is the amazing amount of communication between the mind and body. When the body is instructed to flow with the birth process and open and release tightness and tension, the entire body is in harmony with the downward movement and opening that can produce a shorter birth. In many cases, the doctors and nurses observing a hypnobirthing mom don't feel she is progressing, because she is quiet and calm. There is often an element of surprise in the rapid dilation of the cervix, and the short amount of time spent in the pushing process. Because the mind is instructing the body to relax and open and there are absolutely NO FEARS, TENSION, OR NEGATIVE BELIEFS about the labor, and as a result the body can open quickly and efficiently. A recent magazine article about hypnobirthing commented on how the babies seem to "flow" out, rather than being pushed out. Very often the pushing process is smooth and efficient, with less tearing and less trauma to the baby. The body does not resist the birth process and the labor is usually shorter in duration.
