In this episode I take you through the science behind hypnobirthing, exploring how our nervous system works to try and keep us safe and the impact that can have on birth.

I also share my favourite every-day breathing technique to help with regulating the nervous system.

This episode is relevant for everyone, pregnant or not. We all have an autonomic nervous system and I really believe that appreciating why it gets triggered, as well as the signs that it has been, is important for everyone.

Keep up to date with all the goings on by following me on instagram.
