We are absolutely thrilled to share that Pip is now be offering EFT Tapping as part of our services!

For quite some time, we have understood and taught the importance of not making decisions while in our sympathetic nervous system.

However, Pip has been studying Polyvagal Theory to understand of how our current nervous state—there are actually three, not just two—affects our stories and choices.
Tapping serves as a simple and effective method to reduce cortisol levels and align your nervous system for making decisions that resonate with your unique needs.

During Pip’s Fear Release sessions, you'll work together with her to explore and address your fears, starting with a vagus nerve toning tapping technique to promote a calm nervous system.

You will then brainstorm practical solutions for these fears (because often this is what is needed to release fears), followed by tapping to release any remaining fears(usually hypothetical and/or out of your control) and filling that space with confidence in your innate wisdom and intuition.

It is so important for you to include your "breastfeeding plan" with your "birth plan".... and the best way to organise that is to book in with Pip so she can guide you through that process. So many of our hypnobirthing clients are booking in with her after they have done their birth classes to feel so much more confident about their breastfeeding journey as well as their birth.

Have you written a Birth and Breastfeeding Plan?

Just as it is important to let your care provider know what you want around your birth it is also important to write down how you want them to support optimal breastfeeding.

Don't assume your care providers will automatically do this as hospital policies and guidelines that can get in the way of the birth you want can also get in the way of breastfeeding.

If you create a birth plan, I strongly advise incorporating more than just "an uninterrupted first hour after birth" when it comes to breastfeeding.

Then when you write your Plan B or Plan C think about how deviating from Plan A might impact your breastfeeding journey and what you would like to happen to support breastfeeding in these incidences.

Even in the case of a caesarean section, there are things your care providers can do that will support instead of hinder your breastfeeding journey.

Unfortunately, these are not common practices in most hospitals so you need to do your research and add them to your "Birth and Breastfeeding Plan" (or Map if you are doing Birth Mapping).

MONDAY, 14TH AUGUST - BAYSWATER
It's that time again when we need volunteers who are preferably 38 weeks pregnant or more to be models for our training doulas, however, if we are short of numbers then we will consider from 36 weeks.

We have 6 training doulas this time around, so you need to get in quick to book your place. Our doulas will be practicing breathing, massage techniques, acupressure, stretching, and sharing with you some helpful ways to be comfortable during labour.

It's a great way for women to prepare and have a bit of a pamper, and then to be able to practice on a pregnant woman.

If you are interested, please EMAIL VICKI at vicki@vickihobbs.com so she can send you all the details and the volunteer registration form.

This 🙌🏻

I always send the article linked to my clients and explain why posterior births have become so pathologised in my workshops.

You’ve got this!

It is the expectations and the timeframes that are the problem. Not the position.
