In Carolyn Shaffer's small-group, birth prep coaching program, learn to use hypnosis, intention and intuition to:

• Find your "sweet spot" of deep safety and comfort
• Tailor your birth experience to suit your authentic self
• Become more of who you are as you birth your baby

"The hypnosis training I received from Carolyn gave me the courage to have the kind of birth I wanted and the tools to go through labor relaxed and without fear."
                — Serena
