In as little as four weeks with HypBirth, you can gain confidence and comfort that your labor will be in control and generally much faster. How can this be?
Practicing daily with the HypBirth program will create the level of relaxation needed to stop the flow of catecholamines, stress hormones that are released during labor. These hormones are designed to signal the body of impending danger by creating an instant "fight-or-flight" response. Catecholamines work very well during stressful situations as when you are truly in danger, but in labor they only hinder the process.
When stopping the flow of catecholamines, the uterus functions at it's highest potential, pulling the long, lengthening muscles of the uterus over your baby's head easily and effortlessly. Catecholamines affect this process by making it difficult for the round, circular muscles of the uterus to relax, causing the long, lengthening muscles to do more work and creating longer harder contractions and a longer harder labor. Another effect of catecholamines is that the blood flow to the major organs of your body (including your uterus) is rerouted to your arms and legs. This provides less energy for your uterus and impedes its work. If you were being attacked, this "fight-or-flight" response is a great asset but during labor there is no attacker. Unfortunately, most women equate normal labor with being attacked, rather than the positive feeling of being empowered and at ease.
