SOPHROLOGY AS A PREPARATION FOR CHILDBIRTH

Created in 1960 by a Colombian neuropsychiatrist, Alfonso Caycedo, the goal of sophrology is to help you visualize your childbirth in a positive way, by imagining it in advance. For that, I would explain to you how to become aware of your body mentally and physically. By concentrating, you will be able to better control your emotions, so as not to have the childbirth, but to live it fully. Thanks to relaxation exercises, you will gain self-confidence, overcome your fears and better control pain. More serene, you will be able to relax at the time of childbirth, because in a way, you will have the impression of having already lived this moment.

You can start preparing for childbirth from the fourth or fifth month of pregnancy, when your tummy begins to round. During group lessons, given by a sophrologist, you will learn to breathe while controlling your breath, to relax and release all tensions to reach a state of semi-sleep.
Sitting or lying down, you listen to the voice of the sophrologist while closing your eyes. You enter a state of semi-sleep where you learn to breathe, relax and release all your tensions.
Exercises that help you visualize your childbirth and play down this event by making it positive. To do well, record the lessons and play back the tapes at home to practice!
