00:00:00.119 --> 00:00:03.907
Hello, today I have with me Jennifer Schlute.

00:00:03.907 --> 00:00:10.446
Jennifer is a certified hypnotherapist and is teaching spiritual hypnosis as well.

00:00:10.446 --> 00:00:14.820
She helps her clients feel their best and create a light they love.

00:00:14.820 --> 00:00:23.245
She works with individuals as well as groups and is the founder and host of the Mind your Subconscious podcast.

00:00:23.245 --> 00:00:30.109
Today we are going to talk about how she helps women feel safe with their birthing process and to get pregnant.

00:00:30.109 --> 00:00:32.939
Jennifer, welcome and thank you for joining me.

00:00:33.179 --> 00:00:34.884
Hi Kelly, thank you so much for having me.

00:00:35.045 --> 00:00:45.101
Well, I was so intrigued when you reached out about the things that you do to help moms get ready to get pregnant and help with fertility and all of that stuff.

00:00:45.101 --> 00:00:51.962
I've always been fascinated by hypnosis, so I'm really excited to hear about how that whole thing works.

00:00:52.423 --> 00:01:03.052
So how it works is basically you know, let's say you are trying to get pregnant or you are pregnant you have to feel safe in your body, right, your womb has to feel safe.

00:01:03.052 --> 00:01:07.718
You as a whole being have to feel safe physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

00:01:07.718 --> 00:01:08.781
You just have to feel safe.

00:01:08.781 --> 00:01:13.692
You have to feel good for your baby to have the ideal conditions to grow.

00:01:13.692 --> 00:01:31.153
And when you don't feel safe whether that is because you have been sexually assaulted in the past, whether it is because you've had miscarriages or you've had an abortion, or whether that is because you've had difficult births, these are all kinds of factors that may not make you feel safe.

00:01:31.153 --> 00:01:50.034
And if you work not only with your body because you know some women, they try to be more fertile with food that they take or they try to get into ideal conditions with their pregnancy, with food but when you leave out the mind, you leave out the whole feeling side of things.

00:01:50.034 --> 00:02:04.192
And so when you want a birth that is safe and that's the mom feel safe in her mind and in her body then you work with hypnosis to help people achieve that.

00:02:04.192 --> 00:02:10.395
If you've been through something in the past that doesn't make you feel safe, you work with hypnosis to achieve that.

00:02:10.395 --> 00:02:25.328
Because what we can do in hypnosis I'm going to give a few examples is when somebody has had a miscarriage or an abortion, we can actually, in hypnosis, go and talk to that soul of the baby, like, why didn't you choose to come this time around?

00:02:25.328 --> 00:02:27.276
Are you going to choose to come back?

00:02:27.276 --> 00:02:29.162
What was my lesson here for me?

00:02:29.162 --> 00:02:31.086
What is it that you want me to know?

00:02:31.086 --> 00:02:33.211
How can I feel safe in my next pregnancy?

00:02:33.211 --> 00:02:33.860
Like?

00:02:33.881 --> 00:02:36.471
These are all kinds of things that we can do in hypnosis.

00:02:36.471 --> 00:02:47.105
When you've had that or, for example, when you've been sexually assaulted or harassed in the past, when your womb doesn't feel safe or when your body doesn't feel safe, we can also work on that.

00:02:47.105 --> 00:02:50.401
We will go back to that point in time if we need to.

00:02:50.401 --> 00:02:53.909
If we don't need to, we won't, but it's more beneficial.

00:02:53.909 --> 00:02:57.786
And then we work around it and we also we extract the lessons for you.

00:02:57.786 --> 00:03:02.644
We extract everything that is important for you to feel safe now in your body.

00:03:02.644 --> 00:03:17.003
And if you had, like, a difficult birthing process, we will also go back to that and see how you can now make your body feel safe, because our soul knows, like everything that I just talked about.

00:03:17.003 --> 00:03:20.597
Your soul knows Everything you need to do.

00:03:20.597 --> 00:03:24.806
Your soul knows and this is what we get down to in hypnosis that is so amazing.

00:03:25.307 --> 00:03:39.490
So I'm not sure that everyone, especially over here in the US, knows necessarily what all goes into hypnosis I think we have, especially if we grew up watching cartoons as a kid.

00:03:39.490 --> 00:03:43.804
We think of someone being hypnotized and then they walk around clicking like a chicken.

00:03:43.804 --> 00:04:02.987
So can you walk me through a little bit of how it might look when we do a process to help a woman feel safe in her body for maybe getting ready for the birthing process, Like if she's already pregnant and moving towards the birth process and trying to feel safe in her body to have a positive childbirth?

00:04:03.188 --> 00:04:04.674
Absolutely so.

00:04:04.674 --> 00:04:10.257
What we do is basically so, first of all, the hypnosis that you see on cartoons and everything, we leave that out.

00:04:10.257 --> 00:04:16.343
Okay, like, just don't think about that at all, and what we're doing now is hypno therapy, so let's call that hypno therapy is a little bit different.

00:04:16.343 --> 00:04:23.747
So in hypno therapy, what I do with people, basically we take people into relaxation.

00:04:23.747 --> 00:04:36.812
First we have them close their eyes, then we have them breathe a certain way, and then we relax their body and then we relax their mind and we, as hypno therapists, we do that with our voice, only with a voice.

00:04:36.812 --> 00:04:39.283
So basically it's like a guided meditation.

00:04:39.283 --> 00:04:51.423
You can imagine a guided meditation I'm sure you've listened to one on YouTube or something, or on an app or whatever, and it's very similar to that, except you'll be taken into a very, very deep point of relaxation.

00:04:51.423 --> 00:04:57.529
And then, let's say, when the woman is pregnant, we can go into her room.

00:04:57.529 --> 00:05:10.083
So we will give you a visualization and, like, just like a guided meditation, we will give you a visualization in which you will go into your womb and check, okay, like, where does my womb feel safe?

00:05:10.083 --> 00:05:17.891
Are there any emotions or trauma stored in my womb that do not need to be there right now and then I can actually release that I can let go of.

00:05:17.891 --> 00:05:21.322
Then we let that go and we extract the lessons.

00:05:21.322 --> 00:05:30.663
So we have that, because with everything that's happened is always, it's always important to really extract the lessons and to really understand why that happened and how is it benefiting us.

00:05:30.663 --> 00:05:33.572
And once we understand that, then we can go into.

00:05:33.694 --> 00:05:33.915
Okay.

00:05:33.915 --> 00:05:35.882
So what, what do you need right now?

00:05:35.882 --> 00:05:37.430
Well, what do you want me to do?

00:05:37.430 --> 00:05:38.435
What do you want me to eat?

00:05:38.435 --> 00:05:39.982
What do you want me to do for you?

00:05:39.982 --> 00:05:41.670
What do you not want me to do?

00:05:41.670 --> 00:05:43.478
Like, do you want me to start doing yoga?

00:05:43.478 --> 00:05:46.586
Do you want me to stop lifting weights, like all these kinds of things?

00:05:46.586 --> 00:05:53.785
Right, and it's like we let our womb speak through us and you will hear that.

00:05:53.785 --> 00:05:57.533
And then, when you actually do that, you will feel you.

00:05:57.533 --> 00:06:04.233
You you think like, oh, I knew this, but I needed to hear it, basically in order to believe it.

00:06:04.233 --> 00:06:06.783
Right, Because we know already, we know.

00:06:06.802 --> 00:06:14.807
Yeah, I agree, I really work to promote emotional preparation for childbirth especially.

00:06:14.807 --> 00:06:40.024
I don't necessarily work on the pregnancy side, but as a labor and delivery nurse I see so many people coming in with past trauma or maybe not necessarily past trauma, although I think a lot of it probably has to do with that but just coming in and being afraid of the space, afraid of what's going to happen to them, and so afraid that they don't prepare mentally or emotionally so they don't know what's going to happen to them and they're also afraid and they haven't worked through any of those fears.

00:06:40.024 --> 00:06:49.019
So I love that this is another way to do that and to get in touch with that internal knowing that you have about what is right for you and for your body.

00:06:49.019 --> 00:07:04.514
I think this is kind of along the lines of we store trauma in our body and it's important to find those places that you're feeling that trauma, because I don't think everybody's necessarily in touch with that.

00:07:04.605 --> 00:07:06.591
I know definitely I wasn't.

00:07:06.591 --> 00:07:15.512
But then when I go back and I think about things in my life that have had a big impact on me and that cause negative feelings, I can feel.

00:07:15.512 --> 00:07:20.093
If I'm quiet and I listen to my body, I can feel where I feel, that when I have that emotion.

00:07:20.093 --> 00:07:29.935
I don't know that in, at least over here in the US, I don't know that our society really teaches how to find those emotions in your body and release them.

00:07:29.935 --> 00:07:36.192
So I just I love that you have a way of doing that and I'm curious how did this become your passion?

00:07:36.685 --> 00:07:45.031
So for me, how I got involved into hypnosis was because when I did my first hypnosis session, I also had a lot going on in life.

00:07:45.031 --> 00:07:49.125
I didn't really fulfilled in my I feel, fulfilled in my job and it.

00:07:49.125 --> 00:07:55.288
So it happened so that I actually had some really bad things happen in my private life then as well.

00:07:55.288 --> 00:07:58.492
And so my friend was like, hey, why don't you try hypnosis?

00:07:58.492 --> 00:08:03.274
And I said, okay, I guess I will try it because I trust you.

00:08:03.274 --> 00:08:08.095
And then that first hypnosis session made me quit my job and travel the world.

00:08:08.095 --> 00:08:11.173
And this is how I started with hypnosis.

00:08:11.173 --> 00:08:14.654
And then, like, hypnosis helped me really fix the relationship with my mom.

00:08:14.654 --> 00:08:22.673
It helped me build my own business and completely transform my relationship to money, it helped me manifest my dream partner and it helped me with so many things.

00:08:22.673 --> 00:08:26.093
And so that's why I became a sort of hypotherapist myself.

00:08:26.365 --> 00:08:36.926
And then it so happened that I had clients who were pregnant, friends who were pregnant, and we would always just also, you know, have sessions where we spoke to the souls of the children.

00:08:36.926 --> 00:08:38.650
You know, like, oh, what is it going to be?

00:08:38.650 --> 00:08:39.312
What does it mean?

00:08:39.312 --> 00:08:43.448
Like, what is it going to teach mom, what is it going to teach dad and it was for me.

00:08:43.448 --> 00:08:52.173
This is one of the things that I'm really passionate about, because I think our children are our future, and it is just also for me, for a selfish reason.

00:08:52.173 --> 00:09:04.491
It is just so much fun, like it is beautiful to see a mom becoming a mom or, you know, a second mom or whatever, and it's beautiful to to to to help people really feel safe within themselves, whether it's with birth or whether it's with something else.

00:09:04.491 --> 00:09:07.111
But that's just that's what I love doing.

00:09:08.205 --> 00:09:26.316
I feel like with any type of therapy or mindset work or meditation, anything like that, there is a need to figure out how to slow down and actually achieve that deep state of relaxation, and some people maybe all people have difficulty with that.

00:09:26.316 --> 00:09:37.889
I'm wondering if you have any advice for people that think that they don't have time to do the emotional work or the mindset work or maybe feel like they can't actually slow down and get in that relaxed state.

00:09:38.191 --> 00:09:43.556
Absolutely so that you cannot do it in the line, because all of us can slow down and relax.

00:09:43.556 --> 00:09:44.466
And I want to.

00:09:44.466 --> 00:09:45.350
I want to show you why.

00:09:45.350 --> 00:10:08.495
Because imagine, when you do something that you love, that isn't your work, that's a hobby, whether that's drawing, whether that's dancing, whether that's I don't know, like whatever it is that you love doing, right, you forget time and space, you relax, you don't think of anything else, you just do the thing because you love it and because you enjoy it, and it's just fun.

00:10:08.495 --> 00:10:11.352
And so the fact that you can't relax is not true.

00:10:12.044 --> 00:10:16.775
However, relaxation is a constant, constant practice.

00:10:16.775 --> 00:10:20.092
Even me, I've done this for years, almost a decade now.

00:10:20.092 --> 00:10:30.288
Even we I will still have to sit down, take the time and get myself into a relaxed space of light, right, sometimes it's easier, sometimes it's not easy.

00:10:30.288 --> 00:10:44.111
But what I want people to start with like if they, let's say they want to start, you know, with meditating or relaxation or whatever I would say start with something simple as okay, I'm going to meditate every day for one minute, then I'm going to increase the duration.

00:10:44.111 --> 00:10:48.807
I'm going to meditate every day for three minutes, then increase the duration every day for 10 minutes.

00:10:49.205 --> 00:10:56.909
So, really, start slowly, and when you miss a day, you're going to do it the next day again and you're going to do it again and, again, and again, and really keep practicing.

00:10:56.909 --> 00:11:06.976
Because, as with everything else in life, relaxation is simply just practice, and I know this world isn't meant for us to relax and we're not taught to relax.

00:11:06.976 --> 00:11:09.032
We're not taught to be silent with ourselves.

00:11:09.032 --> 00:11:11.913
We're not taught to feel our emotions in our body.

00:11:11.913 --> 00:11:13.571
We're not taught that, unfortunately.

00:11:13.571 --> 00:11:22.010
But that's why it's even more important to really really take the time to relax and make the time.

00:11:22.010 --> 00:11:23.352
Everybody has 10 minutes in a day.

00:11:23.605 --> 00:11:24.828
You cannot give me an excuse.

00:11:24.828 --> 00:11:27.389
Let's hold everyone accountable.

00:11:27.389 --> 00:11:29.208
Give yourself 10 minutes.

00:11:29.208 --> 00:11:33.855
So then I talk about this a lot, but I would love to hear your take on it.

00:11:33.855 --> 00:11:47.249
Why is it important for people that are becoming parents to explore those emotions, to get in touch with their body, to go through this process that you described in hypnotherapy, doing that mindset work?

00:11:47.249 --> 00:11:51.554
Why is that important when you're becoming a parent and going to childbirth?

00:11:52.184 --> 00:11:57.739
So it is important because you obviously all parents like most parents, right?

00:11:57.739 --> 00:12:00.933
They want their child to have a better life than they had.

00:12:00.933 --> 00:12:03.251
They want to be better parents than their parents.

00:12:03.251 --> 00:12:10.136
And in order for us to be the best versions of ourselves, we have to understand ourselves better.

00:12:10.136 --> 00:12:33.684
For example, if I understand what makes me angry, what makes me frustrated, what makes me, you know, just any kind of what we call negative emotions then I will know that when I'm with a child as well and it's the other way around too, like whatever gives me positive emotions and I will know that with a child as well and the child will repeat the patterns that you haven't worked on.

00:12:33.684 --> 00:12:37.164
The child will repeat the patterns that you have not solved.

00:12:37.164 --> 00:12:45.163
If you have a shitty relationship with your mom or your dad, or if you have not resolved any trauma or something like that, then your child will emulate you.

00:12:45.163 --> 00:12:46.440
They will do the same.

00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:48.501
They will just be that.

00:12:48.501 --> 00:12:49.224
They will feel that.

00:12:49.224 --> 00:13:01.322
And also, what is really interesting is that everything that you have stored in your body, every trauma that you have, your child will have that too in their body, because it's in the genetics, right?

00:13:01.322 --> 00:13:19.086
So there was an experiment done on rats, where they had rats in cages and they sprayed cherry blossom spray and then they taste them or they hurt them, and so whenever they smell the cherry blossom spray they would anticipate being hurt, and that lasted for generations.

00:13:19.086 --> 00:13:22.605
That lasted for generations At least two.

00:13:22.605 --> 00:13:22.916
I think.

00:13:22.916 --> 00:13:26.024
They did at least two experiments and then it's still going.

00:13:26.024 --> 00:13:33.842
So whatever you haven't worked and released from your body, your child will have that in your genes, the genes they can get turned on and off.

00:13:33.842 --> 00:13:37.962
So if you provide a good environment for your child, it doesn't necessarily need to be turned on.

00:13:37.962 --> 00:13:40.884
That gene that they have, that trauma gene doesn't need to be turned on.

00:13:41.254 --> 00:13:43.222
So I'm going to give you examples with humans, right?

00:13:43.222 --> 00:13:49.283
My grandparents one of them has lived through both wars, both world wars, like World War I and World War II, in Germany.

00:13:49.283 --> 00:13:54.583
I'm German, I was going to raise there and my other grandparents they have been raised through World War II.

00:13:54.583 --> 00:14:07.100
So for me there have been certain moments when most of the time I realize it, when I want to stop eating, like they would never have enough food.

00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:12.226
So whenever my plate is not empty, I would be like, oh my God, I need to eat, I need to eat.

00:14:12.226 --> 00:14:13.620
I cannot leave any food on the table.

00:14:13.620 --> 00:14:14.860
I cannot leave any food on the table.

00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:23.062
So these little things with money, right, like, oh, there's not enough money, like you know, we have to save for a bad day, or whatever.

00:14:23.062 --> 00:14:34.961
It is Like these little tiny things, if you don't work on them, your children will carry them on, and that's why it is so important for us to work on ourselves and keep that going and work with our parents as well.

00:14:35.095 --> 00:14:41.341
If, if you know, we have a good relationship or we want one with them, yeah, and then I how does that translate?

00:14:41.341 --> 00:14:42.264
Going into childbirth?

00:14:42.264 --> 00:14:51.144
Because I feel like that's probably one of the most momentous days of your life, and what kills me is when patients are so so.

00:14:51.144 --> 00:15:03.106
You know, in the hospital as a nurse, when I see patients that have come in and haven't done the mindset and emotional work and that experience that's supposed to be so happy and wonderful is a big cause of stress.

00:15:03.106 --> 00:15:06.924
So how, how do you help moms get ready for that?

00:15:07.215 --> 00:15:15.464
So I have not personally have I've not had death case, but I've had, like where where there was stress around them before birth, right?

00:15:15.464 --> 00:15:21.554
So the stress before birth, you know, with your parents and with everyone trying to know like, oh, is it there yet, is it there yet?

00:15:21.554 --> 00:15:23.500
It's like, oh, that's stress.

00:15:23.562 --> 00:15:23.883
Yeah.

00:15:23.903 --> 00:15:26.559
Right and the preparation body and your mind.

00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.519
What you do is it's it's a simple way, but you talk to people you.

00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:34.937
You talk about like what are your expectations, what do you want, what do you need?

00:15:34.937 --> 00:15:36.841
And you have to set boundaries.

00:15:36.841 --> 00:15:39.523
You cannot allow your birth as your experience.

00:15:39.523 --> 00:15:42.375
This is not your mom's experience or your dad's experience.

00:15:42.375 --> 00:15:45.764
It's your experience and you're meant to have the most beautiful birth, like you say.

00:15:46.657 --> 00:15:55.687
But also what we see, what we're programmed with from TV, from books, from series, from anything, is most of the time for experiences.

00:15:55.687 --> 00:16:00.801
They cannot remember seeing a birth on TV that was, you know, flawless or whatever.

00:16:00.801 --> 00:16:06.068
And like we are programmed to have bad birth experiences in the West.

00:16:06.068 --> 00:16:09.735
We are programmed to have births and hospitals in Africa.

00:16:09.735 --> 00:16:12.182
That's not the way in Latin America.

00:16:12.182 --> 00:16:19.804
That's not the way there's, literally, and it's also not the way that we take forever to give birth, like hours and hours and hours and days and days and days.

00:16:19.804 --> 00:16:27.784
There's people that pop out of baby within 45 minutes because they're not programmed that they have to be in the hospital for hours or days on end.

00:16:27.784 --> 00:16:36.020
And so you have to really de-program yourself and you have to reprogram yourself with good birth experiences.

00:16:36.020 --> 00:16:45.501
And then also, like I said again, when it comes to other people, you have to let them know what you want, what you need and what you don't want and what you don't need.

00:16:45.501 --> 00:16:47.542
And again, this is your birth.

00:16:47.542 --> 00:16:54.186
This should be the happiest day of your life and this should be the most beautiful experience for you and not for other people.

00:16:54.206 --> 00:17:19.505
Yeah, I agree, I want to talk about how important it is when we've had miscarriages or abortions or any other birth trauma like that, where people don't think it's important to work through that sometimes, or people think they have worked through it or whatever, but at the end of the day, it is, I find, with my clients, it is crucial to work on that, even when it comes to a woman's business.

00:17:20.115 --> 00:17:20.884
We're us women.

00:17:20.884 --> 00:17:21.954
We create from the womb.

00:17:21.954 --> 00:17:27.527
The womb is our space of creation little life creation, but also business creation.

00:17:27.527 --> 00:17:33.781
So if we want to create anything, our womb needs to be healed from whatever we have experienced.

00:17:33.781 --> 00:17:43.924
And so really allow yourself to take the time and go back to this vulnerable space where you've had this experience of a miscarriage or abortion or some other womb trauma.

00:17:43.924 --> 00:17:47.483
Allow yourself to go back there, even if it's painful.

00:17:47.483 --> 00:17:56.923
But once you allow yourself to go back there with a person that can guide you into safety, that can guide your body and your mind into safety.

00:17:56.923 --> 00:18:06.080
Then you will feel so different and you can create such a safe space for yourself and for your child as well.

00:18:06.375 --> 00:18:07.882
Yeah, I think that is so important.

00:18:07.882 --> 00:18:23.846
I think that we have a tendency to stuff things down and hope that when they get buried they disappear, and I just find that when you are in such a vulnerable space as becoming pregnant or having a baby, there's so much that surfaces.

00:18:23.846 --> 00:18:25.338
I don't know if it's necessary.

00:18:25.338 --> 00:18:29.142
People over here say it's hormones, but I'm not sure if that's what it is.

00:18:29.142 --> 00:18:50.684
I think that you're kind of forced to look at yourself and look at your life and really prioritize, and that suddenly becomes so urgent when you are about to either get pregnant or deliver your baby, and I just think I agree so much that it is so important to do that work so that you can feel empowered once you become a parent.

00:18:51.075 --> 00:18:56.661
So what I also think is really important, what you just said is you said you have to prioritize yourself.

00:18:56.661 --> 00:19:01.065
As women, we are not being taught to prioritize ourselves.

00:19:01.065 --> 00:19:04.684
We're being taught, we're being conditioned, to prioritize others.

00:19:04.684 --> 00:19:10.979
We're the nurturers, we're the mothers, we're the creators, we're the people who do the things right, who makes shit happen?

00:19:10.979 --> 00:19:17.388
But when we give birth, when we prepare for birth, we need support.

00:19:17.630 --> 00:19:27.025
We need to allow support, and I see that often in clients as well, that they're like well, I think I allow myself to receive a lot of support.

00:19:27.025 --> 00:19:30.984
You know I think I'm fine, but then they're not.

00:19:30.984 --> 00:19:39.984
So I can only encourage, like every person, to really allow more support and to ask yourself where do I need more support?

00:19:39.984 --> 00:19:43.623
What can my husband handle, or my partner or whoever?

00:19:43.623 --> 00:19:45.051
It is right, what can they handle?

00:19:45.051 --> 00:19:46.078
What can my mom handle?

00:19:46.078 --> 00:19:47.045
What can my parents support me with?

00:19:47.045 --> 00:19:51.045
What can my friends support me with and really allow to receive that support?

00:19:51.045 --> 00:19:52.587
I think that's another really hard.

00:19:52.587 --> 00:19:56.576
We have a hard time as women to just receive more support.

00:19:56.576 --> 00:20:02.626
So just really get aware of that and get aware of where you are Actually.

00:20:02.626 --> 00:20:11.590
Try to dismiss the support that is being brought to you and try to get aware where you can call in for more support and where you can allow yourself that.

00:20:12.164 --> 00:20:12.685
I agree.

00:20:12.685 --> 00:20:22.045
I really encourage moms to build their village and to ask for help and to make sure that you surround yourself with people that are safe to ask for help.

00:20:22.045 --> 00:20:35.788
The other thing that I notice is that, especially once the baby's born, there's this shift of priority where you stop prioritizing yourself and you're dealing with such basic needs with your baby Eat, sleep, basically, that's it.

00:20:35.788 --> 00:20:38.516
You're just trying to get them to eat and sleep and keep them clean.

00:20:38.516 --> 00:20:53.955
And I see what happens is and I definitely did this your own physical needs get put to the wayside because it's so important that you make sure that you're able to feed your baby and help your baby get sleep and then maybe try to get sleep yourself.

00:20:54.625 --> 00:21:13.900
So it's really hard sometimes as moms to even begin to see what you need and how to get that, and I think also it's hard to take the time to explore what you might need.

00:21:13.900 --> 00:21:20.560
So there's so much just ignoring of your own personal basic needs.

00:21:20.560 --> 00:21:26.045
That happens as a mom and even sometimes as a pregnant person, especially when you're having your second.

00:21:26.045 --> 00:21:27.992
It's just really really hard.

00:21:27.992 --> 00:21:33.045
Are there any tips that you have on how to achieve that in such high stress times?

00:21:33.586 --> 00:21:43.692
Yeah, it's a very simple tip that I have, because I really do see also that the happiest moms are the ones that take care of themselves, because only when they're happy themselves they can take care of their babies.

00:21:43.692 --> 00:21:49.673
It's counterintuitive that, as that may sound, sometimes right or as that may feel, but these are the happiest.

00:21:49.673 --> 00:21:54.896
And so a simple tip and this goes for everybody, actually not just moms, it goes for everybody.

00:21:54.896 --> 00:21:59.045
We don't know what we need sometimes and we don't make it a habit to ask ourselves what do we need?

00:21:59.045 --> 00:22:05.550
So a few simple questions and various ways to ask the same question would be what do I need right now?

00:22:05.550 --> 00:22:08.025
What would make me happy right now?

00:22:08.025 --> 00:22:10.045
What would make me feel good right now?

00:22:10.045 --> 00:22:12.573
What would bring me joy right now?

00:22:12.573 --> 00:22:16.045
What can I do for myself so that I feel my best?

00:22:16.045 --> 00:22:19.005
What can I do for myself so that I fill my cup?

00:22:19.645 --> 00:22:29.733
These are questions that you can literally ask yourself and then answer them and then actually go do the thing, even if it's something as small as I don't know.

00:22:29.733 --> 00:22:58.025
I just need a protein bar, or I just need something simple, right, or I just need some fresh air for like five minutes Really simple things, and believe that five minutes outside can change what it is that you're feeling, or believe that five minutes of silence when you ask your partner like, hey, take the baby for five minutes, please Just take five minutes for yourself, even if it's small as this, and then really listen to yourself and go do the thing, because we know what we need.

00:22:58.025 --> 00:23:03.005
But sometimes we're just like I'm just not going to listen to myself because I've other things to do right now.

00:23:03.005 --> 00:23:11.535
But it's again, it's the slowing down, it's the silence, it's the slowing down that we need to really know what we need.

00:23:11.535 --> 00:23:12.676
Deep inside we know.

00:23:12.676 --> 00:23:18.025
So it takes the silence and the slowing down to really allow the answer to the answer.

00:23:18.625 --> 00:23:21.894
I think what came up for me just then was, like, take that shower, mom.

00:23:21.894 --> 00:23:34.025
I just remember, yes, I really resonate with the outside, but I think that the biggest takeaway for me was it's so hard to coordinate a shower and it feels so good once you're in there.

00:23:34.025 --> 00:23:35.289
Like, make it happen.

00:23:35.289 --> 00:23:43.961
I used to bring the little tub into the shower with me and they had a little sling and I'd bring the baby in there with me and just we both shower.

00:23:43.961 --> 00:23:46.045
Because, like, where do you put the baby when you're showering?

00:23:46.045 --> 00:23:53.097
If you put the baby outside of the shower, you run the risk of the baby waking up and you have to jump out and get cold and do all those things.

00:23:53.097 --> 00:24:01.045
Yeah, and listen to what your intuition is telling you that you need and find a way to make it happen.

00:24:01.045 --> 00:24:03.412
I think that's such great advice.

00:24:03.531 --> 00:24:04.494
I love your questions.

00:24:04.494 --> 00:24:05.036
I love it.

00:24:05.036 --> 00:24:30.910
Those are amazing questions that everybody can just sit and ask and I think, especially if I encourage my clients to go into the birthing space and have a plan for how they want to feel, and if they're focusing on that plan, then they know what is right for them in the moment, because nothing goes as planned in birth.

00:24:30.910 --> 00:24:43.566
But if you are in touch with how you want to feel, then you can be authentic to yourself when you make those decisions and I think those questions really get to the point of how you want to feel.

00:24:43.566 --> 00:24:46.249
You can ask what do I need right now?

00:24:46.249 --> 00:24:47.484
What do I want right now?

00:24:47.484 --> 00:24:56.267
All of those questions that you just went over really will help ground you in that space and I think that is really, really helpful.

00:24:56.941 --> 00:25:03.788
And I think, especially if you're a breastfeeding mom, most of the time you spend in postpartum is breastfeeding your baby or feeding your baby.

00:25:04.362 --> 00:25:29.189
If you're bottle feeding and that's just time spent sitting, and if you're sitting and you're kind of going through those questions and maybe doing body scans and trying to find where some of that stress is sitting in your body and how you can talk to it and release it, I think that that would be so helpful for moms to get into the habit of doing so that they can make sure that they are taking care of their needs.

00:25:29.189 --> 00:25:45.305
And, like you said, sometimes it only takes five minutes, you know, a five minute outdoor trip or maybe a five minute call to get a pelvic floor physical therapist, or you know, or a five minute call to a chiropractor to set up that appointment and figure out how to make that happen.

00:25:45.305 --> 00:25:50.885
If you're denying yourself over and over again, the habit becomes denial.

00:25:50.885 --> 00:26:05.365
And if you're asking yourself those questions, the habit becomes solving the problems for yourself and then therefore solving the problems later for your child, who is watching you make those decisions for yourself.

00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:08.008
Exactly, and this is practice too.

00:26:08.008 --> 00:26:23.723
Yeah, I do this all the time like that and some you know there are days when I don't do this, but then there's other days when I do it, and you just have to remind yourself over and over again to ask yourself these questions and don't beat yourself up when you forgot for like a week or a month.

00:26:23.723 --> 00:26:26.865
It doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter, it's in the past, like it doesn't matter.

00:26:26.865 --> 00:26:28.164
So you just start over again.

00:26:28.164 --> 00:26:29.147
It's nothing bad.

00:26:29.147 --> 00:26:30.365
So you just start over again.

00:26:30.365 --> 00:26:40.108
And, like you said, if your habit becomes denial, it's gonna become denial for your child, but if your habit becomes asking and satisfying your needs, that's what your child will see.

00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:41.444
Yeah, that's so true.

00:26:41.660 --> 00:26:47.730
The only thing that I didn't talk about is actually giving people recordings when they're birthing.

00:26:47.809 --> 00:26:48.471
Oh, I love that.

00:26:48.471 --> 00:26:50.707
So this is what's who do the?

00:26:50.707 --> 00:26:53.204
Birthing, yeah yeah, how does that work?

00:26:53.204 --> 00:27:07.428
I see some of the most successful births that I've seen unmedicated births that I've seen have been through hypnobirthing, and I know that that's a specific brand, but I would imagine that you do something similar.

00:27:07.428 --> 00:27:08.924
So how does that work?

00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:11.407
So hypnobirthing is like you said.

00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:18.886
It's something on its own right, it's an own term and hypnobirthing works in a sense when preparing for the birth.

00:27:18.980 --> 00:27:37.304
They work to program your mind into having the best births you can have and into allowing yourself to go with the flow because that's what you have to do and to really listen to your intuition and to de-program you from all the bad birth experiences that you've seen on TV and have read about or whatever it is right.

00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:45.528
But then another part of hypnobirthing is also giving the person, either giving them a recording that the hypnotherapist makes.

00:27:45.528 --> 00:28:04.606
So basically, I can give you a guided meditation on to calm yourself down, or to listen to your intuition, or to breathe or whatever it is that you need in that moment, or you can make yourself a recording, because what happens with hypnosis and hypnotherapy is you trust your own voice the most.

00:28:04.606 --> 00:28:15.026
So when you make that recording for yourself, that is actually the best way to do it, so I can advise you on how to do the recording or the person who does hypnobirthing.

00:28:15.026 --> 00:28:19.125
They can advise you how to do the recording and what to say in the recording.

00:28:19.125 --> 00:28:34.971
But if it's made with your voice, then you will trust your voice the most and it'll calm you down the most and you will know, okay, maybe this is what I need right now, maybe I need the recording, and this is what part of hypnobirthing is about.

00:28:35.030 --> 00:28:35.351
Nice.

00:28:35.351 --> 00:28:48.882
And then you did mention like kind of or maybe my brain was just going to this like guided meditations, or I think I was thinking guided visualizations or imagery Is that?

00:28:48.882 --> 00:28:51.326
Would that be part of it, or is that something separate?

00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:53.445
This can totally be part of it.

00:28:53.445 --> 00:29:09.526
So, for example, let's say, like a guided visualization of holding your baby already, or a guided visualization of something that has happened already, that you want to happen and to really see that birth, because we manifest with our thoughts.

00:29:09.526 --> 00:29:14.307
Right, I'm not saying that any birth is going to according to plan, is literally it's not happening.

00:29:14.307 --> 00:29:20.885
But what I'm saying is, the more you rehearse in your mind of how something is going, that's how it's going to happen.

00:29:20.885 --> 00:29:28.481
And there's also science on this, because there was an experiment being done, for example, when somebody was practicing the piano in real life.

00:29:28.481 --> 00:29:45.167
They were practicing, they were playing and they were playing this one song and then it had other people practice the piano in their mind, just in their mind, with on the keys right, just in their mind, but they had almost the very same outcome as the person who practiced in real life.

00:29:45.167 --> 00:29:52.967
Same with basketball they were having people throw free throws, I think they're called yeah, that's what they're called.

00:29:52.967 --> 00:29:56.384
One group was practicing in real life and they were hitting.

00:29:56.384 --> 00:30:03.669
They were hitting, and then the other group was practicing in their minds and they almost again, almost the same quota.

00:30:03.669 --> 00:30:14.926
So what you rehearse in your mind eventually comes to happen, and so the more you rehearse the birth process in your mind, the more that's going to happen as well.

00:30:14.926 --> 00:30:19.067
And what's more important, though, for me is because, no, a birth goal is planned.

00:30:19.067 --> 00:30:27.767
What's more important for me is that you rehearse how you're going to react in a case where it doesn't work out the way you want it to, the way you plan, the way you visualize.

00:30:27.767 --> 00:30:30.387
How are you going to access your intuition?

00:30:30.387 --> 00:30:33.409
How are you practicing accessing your intuition before birth?

00:30:33.409 --> 00:30:35.680
And this is what is also done in hypno birthing.

00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:38.347
It's what is done in hypnosis and not only with birth.

00:30:39.101 --> 00:30:53.388
I am, literally I am putting so much emphasis on helping people on how to listen to their intuition, how to listen to their body you said body scans, right and also talking to the emotions that you're feeling Like hey fear, what is it that you need right now?

00:30:53.388 --> 00:30:55.708
Hey fear, how can I make you go away?

00:30:55.708 --> 00:30:57.346
What do you need for it to go away?

00:30:57.346 --> 00:31:01.364
Hey, fear, do you want to transform into a different emotion and help me really?

00:31:01.364 --> 00:31:16.902
Just, you know, not be fearful, but transform into a different emotion that I can use, and really helping people to get to know themselves, their emotions, their body, their feelings, their mind and how they react, for example.

00:31:16.902 --> 00:31:19.250
This is an example of what I can think about.

00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:27.483
But when we're women, when we're on a period, right Before we're on a period, or while on a period right, things are more annoying.

00:31:27.483 --> 00:31:29.729
Let's be real, things are more annoying.

00:31:29.729 --> 00:31:31.345
Our partners are more annoying.

00:31:31.345 --> 00:32:02.528
But being aware of that thought or of these thoughts and just saying, oh, I know, it's that time of the month, right, of course my partner is annoying me, or of course this is annoying me, or of course I just don't want to go out because I'm a time of the month, so, really coming in tune with your body, with your mind, with everything that's going on with you, getting to know yourself and taking the time to do that you are, this is the best investment that you can make in yourself.

00:32:02.528 --> 00:32:07.703
Getting it's getting to know yourself and your needs and what you want yeah, this is the best.

00:32:07.743 --> 00:32:08.165
Thing you can do.

00:32:08.165 --> 00:32:12.442
Oh, I agree no-transcript Any case, not only pregnancy, but when?

00:32:12.596 --> 00:32:19.541
Yeah, absolutely and I really love that you are talking about how you're going to react when things don't go as planned.

00:32:19.541 --> 00:32:25.205
I love walking people through what it might look like, especially like.

00:32:25.205 --> 00:32:28.623
Just take, for example, if you end up having to have a C-section.

00:32:28.623 --> 00:32:45.643
Most people, that's their I wouldn't say biggest fear, but they're trying to avoid a C-section and I don't want that to ruin the day that their baby is born and so having, and most people are afraid to even think about it.

00:32:45.643 --> 00:32:48.878
They don't want to think about it because then if they think about it, they think they're manifesting it.

00:32:49.714 --> 00:33:24.748
But imagining how you're going to react in some of these situations, visualizing the good situation, the one that you want, but also having planned out your reaction in the moment of the situation that you don't want is so important because it helps you not let that color the way that you perceive the event and it helps you come back into your body and make those decisions appropriately so that you can choose the most authentic and important way that you want to do things.

00:33:25.394 --> 00:33:48.941
I feel like if we are so rattled by something turning out not the way you want it, then we can't quickly pivot and help get back on track and then you just feel completely derailed and what I try to do with my clients is help them course correct when things don't exactly work out the way that they want.

00:33:48.941 --> 00:34:17.248
Because what I see happen a lot is one thing doesn't quite go as planned, and so then they're rattled, and then the next thing doesn't go as planned because of that reaction, or if it isn't because of the reaction, then it's made worse because of the reaction, and then something that could have been so wonderful and beautiful and could have gone back on track just becomes this snowball effect of negativity that didn't have to happen.

00:34:17.248 --> 00:34:19.320
So I think that that's so important.

00:34:19.822 --> 00:34:21.177
Exactly, I totally agree.

00:34:21.177 --> 00:34:25.355
It's super important to really know how you would react in a situation.

00:34:25.355 --> 00:34:26.659
And you can practice that.

00:34:26.659 --> 00:34:27.963
Yeah, for sure, practice that.

00:34:28.934 --> 00:34:32.143
And the other thing I think I remembered what I was wanting to ask you about.

00:34:32.143 --> 00:34:42.757
I feel like many people don't necessarily know the history of hypnotherapy and how there have been studies that it's.

00:34:42.757 --> 00:34:55.724
Not only is it the oldest, it's one of the most effective forms of pain control, because back when there was no medicine necessarily, or we were just taking willow bark Is it willow bark?

00:34:55.724 --> 00:34:58.443
I think that's asperis, I don't know.

00:34:58.443 --> 00:35:01.362
There wasn't a whole lot else you could do.

00:35:01.362 --> 00:35:03.742
You have to use your mind to get past that.

00:35:03.742 --> 00:35:07.184
I was wondering if I'm sure you have more expertise on the subject than I do.

00:35:07.204 --> 00:35:12.905
Yeah, so, first of all, hypnosis goes back, like thousands of years ago, back to the Egyptians and everything.

00:35:12.905 --> 00:35:15.318
It goes back Hypnosis again.

00:35:15.318 --> 00:35:25.748
What we do in hypnosis is relaxation, and there have been people who have done surgery solely with hypnosis, with absolutely no anesthesia.

00:35:25.748 --> 00:35:29.925
So still to this day, there's people who don't want to go under anesthesia.

00:35:29.925 --> 00:35:33.199
Maybe it doesn't work for them, maybe they're allergic, maybe it's whatever it is.

00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:38.646
There are people who undergo surgery with simply hypnosis, with pain control.

00:35:38.646 --> 00:35:50.264
So how that works is literally, you can sort of say numb a body part or you can focus on another body part, and dentists use that a lot too.

00:35:50.264 --> 00:35:56.481
If you're dentists, if you don't want to do that, or if your clients want to do something else, then this is what they do.

00:35:56.481 --> 00:35:58.581
And people use self-hypnosis.

00:35:58.581 --> 00:36:05.083
They don't need a hypnotherapist to do that, for them to put themselves into that relaxed space of mind, but they use self-hypnosis to do that.

00:36:05.083 --> 00:36:17.827
So they will bring themselves into that relaxed state of mind where they will focus on something that is not painful, or where they will focus on numbing that body part and not feeling that body part.

00:36:18.394 --> 00:36:19.298
I think that's incredible.

00:36:19.298 --> 00:36:22.023
I have not done that myself to somebody.

00:36:22.023 --> 00:36:23.581
Well, I actually do.

00:36:23.581 --> 00:36:43.318
I do pain control, but I don't do it in a sense of oh, I'm going to hypnotize myself to not have as much pain, but again, I focus on the body part and when it hurts I'm just like, okay, let me focus on a different body part right now, or let me just breathe into the pain and imagine that with every exhale, my pain will go away more and more and more.

00:36:43.318 --> 00:36:45.621
So these are a lot of things you can do as well.

00:36:45.621 --> 00:36:49.943
Yeah, so it's studied, it's been proven, it's been successful and people are still doing that.

00:36:49.983 --> 00:36:55.407
Yeah, I mean, if you think about it when you're distracted, you don't feel the pain as much.

00:36:55.407 --> 00:37:00.867
So there is something that we can tap into in our brain that can help decrease the pain.

00:37:00.867 --> 00:37:12.186
And I know, at least from my experience with moms that have come on doing the specific hip-no-berthing process the trademarked one they talk about, how we call it pain.

00:37:12.186 --> 00:37:15.103
But true pain is an indicator that something is wrong.

00:37:15.103 --> 00:37:22.382
But the majority of the time when we're delivering a baby, that's a natural physiological process and so it doesn't mean that there's anything wrong.

00:37:22.382 --> 00:37:36.547
So if you reframe that sensation and assume that things are all going right, then you can kind of start to move yourself out of that space that you think that it's actually pain and start to work with the sensations.

00:37:37.027 --> 00:37:39.112
Now again, I have not done that myself.

00:37:39.112 --> 00:37:47.320
I Didn't even know hypnobirthing was a thing Meet, for my kids were born but I just think it's amazing and I've seen it work.

00:37:47.320 --> 00:37:47.981
I've seen it.

00:37:47.981 --> 00:37:56.730
I've seen people just have a very calm, unmedicated, physiologically normal births Without a whole lot of pain, or at least what they've reported.

00:37:56.990 --> 00:38:09.360
Yeah, and and this goes also for fitness, right If you're doing something like an exercise or whatever, and then if you start feeling pain, my boyfriend, he's a fitness expert, so he would always ask me Okay, what is the scale from the pain?

00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:10.579
Is it on a one to ten?

00:38:10.579 --> 00:38:15.159
You know if it's a two, if you can push through it, then it may go away by itself.

00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:24.657
How often has that happened to me, now that I'm aware of the scale, and then you know if it's like a nine, if it's really painful and if I need to stop, if I need to do something else.

00:38:24.978 --> 00:38:26.628
Again, I need to listen to my body.

00:38:26.628 --> 00:38:28.599
I need to see, like, what's actually what's up?

00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:29.751
What's up with that?

00:38:29.751 --> 00:38:30.619
What is the pain?

00:38:30.619 --> 00:38:31.824
Where is it coming from?

00:38:31.824 --> 00:38:33.110
Does it start somewhere else?

00:38:33.110 --> 00:39:13.893
And to really be aware of that and, like you said, is it the physiological pain or is it just a pain that's like a muscle soreness, or maybe the muscle is like oh, I don't like this movement, or something you know, and this can be translated into into birth as well, because obviously we're using a muscle boy, are we quite a workout, Well is there anything that we haven't touched on that you wanted to talk about what I want to talk about is Also that it can be really helpful and really soothing for moms to get in touch with the soul of their unborn baby before it's even born, and it's such a beautiful process because it's not very known about or people are not doing it.

00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:21.869
And also, what I want people to know is that everything that happens to the child While it's in your womb, your child will know.

00:39:21.869 --> 00:39:27.827
If you're fearful During your pregnancy, your child will know and it will subconsciously know.

00:39:27.827 --> 00:39:42.485
And if I were to take somebody who was, you know, like a grown-up person right now, maybe like a 38 year old, if I were to take them back to the womb during pregnancy and then they could tell me hey, how was in my mom's womb?

00:39:42.485 --> 00:39:44.251
And actually it felt quite unsafe.

00:39:44.251 --> 00:39:45.615
My mom was worried all the time.

00:39:45.615 --> 00:39:46.277
My mom was this.

00:39:46.277 --> 00:39:51.550
My mom was that, like Babies know, grown-ups know whether it is that they subconsciously know.

00:39:51.550 --> 00:39:55.947
That means like they unknowingly know that there was happening.

00:39:56.166 --> 00:40:02.557
It is so important to already during pregnancy, be safe, not only after for the child, but while the child is in there.

00:40:02.557 --> 00:40:09.313
Already it is so important and then just to communicate with the child whether it is through the soul communication.

00:40:09.313 --> 00:40:32.132
So what I reckon I can give you guys the process here as well, what you can do is you can literally imagine yourself as a, as a light I call it the light of love and peace and wisdom, which is your soul and you can imagine your baby as the light of love and peace and wisdom, as well as a light in your womb, and then you can take a golden thread and Make the connection, build the connection and then just talk to your baby soul.

00:40:32.132 --> 00:40:34.280
Talk to your baby soul, talk to it.

00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:39.523
You know, like, even out loud, you can do that, you can do that in relaxation, you can do that whenever.

00:40:39.523 --> 00:40:47.005
But the more you talk to them, the more they will also know like, hey, I'm safe, mama feel safe, mama feels good, she feels safe and all of that.

00:40:47.365 --> 00:41:12.666
And I have a process on my tick-tock and on my Instagram account for that, like a guided meditation that you can try it as well, and I actually have one on on YouTube as well where you can speak to the unborn soul of your when you've had like a miscarriage or a pregnancy loss, when you've had that, and Speaking with the soul of the baby is such a wonderful process for moms, how I can see it, because you can also find out like, hey, what is this soul going to teach me?

00:41:12.666 --> 00:41:16.284
Because less beyond, his children are Teach our teachers.

00:41:16.284 --> 00:41:17.309
It's not the other way around.

00:41:17.309 --> 00:41:20.085
We choose to balance their mind.

00:41:20.085 --> 00:41:22.771
They are teaching us the actual lessons, right?

00:41:22.771 --> 00:41:24.764
So just really finding out.

00:41:24.764 --> 00:41:25.626
Okay, why did you?

00:41:25.626 --> 00:41:27.371
Why did you choose me as your mom?

00:41:27.371 --> 00:41:29.304
Why don't you choose your dad as your dad?

00:41:29.304 --> 00:41:34.054
And and getting that conversation started already while your child is in the womb was the soul.

00:41:34.054 --> 00:41:37.530
It can be a really beautiful process for parents as well.

00:41:37.913 --> 00:41:38.916
Yeah, absolutely.

00:41:38.916 --> 00:41:39.197
That is.

00:41:39.197 --> 00:41:39.940
That's really amazing.

00:41:39.940 --> 00:41:50.485
I feel like I knew my kids when the second I got pregnant with them, and like I knew their names and their Personalities, I just I totally resonate with that.

00:41:50.485 --> 00:41:53.512
That's really, and I feel like they came out being those people.

00:41:53.512 --> 00:41:57.590
So I feel I definitely, I definitely think that's possible.

00:41:58.061 --> 00:42:08.780
The other thing that I was thinking about, just from the scientific aspect, is we know that when you have stress, you secrete the hormone cortisol, so that goes in your bloodstream and that affects your baby.

00:42:08.780 --> 00:42:15.052
So, yes, absolutely, if you're stressed out, your baby is stressed out, your baby is getting that jolt of cortisol.

00:42:15.052 --> 00:42:19.152
It's the same thing as if you've ever taken steroid medication.

00:42:19.152 --> 00:42:22.804
If you've gotten sick, you report feeling that Rhoid rage.

00:42:22.804 --> 00:42:27.884
You start to feel like just this pent up Negative energy.

00:42:27.884 --> 00:42:28.507
It's that.

00:42:28.507 --> 00:42:31.719
It's that it's a stress hormone and that's the way that it makes you feel.

00:42:31.719 --> 00:42:36.514
So if you're secreting that stress hormone, then your baby is feeling it because it's in the bloodstream.

00:42:36.735 --> 00:42:48.532
With a stress hormone, for instance, in war zones and they've gone to, you know, retrospective studies when they've looked at babies that were born in War areas that were just really high stress.

00:42:48.532 --> 00:43:18.635
They had much higher incidence of negative health effects to the babies that were born in those areas and the hypothesis is that it comes from that stress hormone, then the same negative effects that you receive from that stress hormone as An adult when you're stressed out and they say you know the cardiology aspects, all the other things that can go Negatively wrong, like the effects of high blood sugar on your body, all of those things, those are the same things that can happen to your baby while you're stressed out.

00:43:18.635 --> 00:43:25.210
So the importance of managing those emotions and that stress cannot be over emphasized.

00:43:25.210 --> 00:43:32.039
So how can, how can my audience work with you or how can they find you in your podcast and your programs?

00:43:32.179 --> 00:43:36.644
So they can find me on Instagram, tiktok, facebook, youtube.

00:43:36.644 --> 00:43:45.360
I have loads of guided meditations and a lot of him, lots of hypnosis Free ones on every social media platform and, like I said, I have one specifically for pregnancy loss.

00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:56.324
