Your Health is Your Choice with Sara Troy and her guest Kerry Tuschhoff, on air from September 19th I was working at a stock brokerage firm as a sales assistant, but then, due to my own very painful birth experiences, I created a super successful childbirth program (Hypnobabies Hypnobirthing). To help other people, I became a hypnotherapist and put hypno-anesthesia in my childbirth program as…

Concept: an approach to childbirth that utilizes the underlying concept of hypnobirthing/hypnobabies (which is basically that the brain is so powerful it can be used to trick the body into experiencing reality differently) but without being hokey. Can someone make this?

I had panic attacks when I was a teenager that involved me noticing some objectively innocuous sensation in my body (minor pains or unusual sensations) and then my brain taking that and running with it and deciding I was dying, which would give me actual real (but not caused by anything but my own brain) symptoms like dizzyness/faintness. Over time I learned to use that same power of my brain against itself. For instance, when I would have chest pains and my brain would go ��OMG YOU’RE HAVING A HEART ATTACK YOU’RE DYING” which would in turn make the pains worse and bring on faintness, I eventually learned to convince myself that the pain was caused by air trapped in my chest, and if I burped, it would go away. Neither of these things were in any way true - I wasn’t having a heart attack/dying, and there was no air trapped in my chest (I was swallowing it for the purposes of this coping mechanism and then burping it back up). But my brain was able to convince my body to believe either one of them and actually experience the results.

So I’m not opposed to the notion that one could essentially trick one’s brain into experiencing labor pain as more pressure than pain, which is what I understand to be the overall idea of hypnobirthing/hypnobabies. But literally everything I’ve seen from those programs is so hokey and ridiculous that I can’t take it seriously, and don’t see how I could ever actually use it to trick my brain, because the language/tone/background music are all ridiculous to me and don’t allow me to get into it.
