BREATHE “it just makes you feel INVINCIBLE. And it's something that I really wanted to teach the children: When things feel too much, too painful, too uncomfortable, too overwhelming, you can stop and breathe. It's free. You can do it anywhere and everyone can do it. So I think this HypnoBirthing knowledge has been such a powerful tool to open that side of things for me"
~ Lauren Dollimore 💛
One of my favourite parts of this conversation was hearing how the breathing tools Lauren learned through HypnoBirthing became so much more than birth preparation 🙏
From pregnancy blood tests to her three births, cold water swimming in winter, grief, stress and anxiety, breath became the tool she could always return to.
And now, it’s something she’s passing on to her children too (and I do too 😍 even when my 4yo daughter goes to the toilet to never push 💩😅🤗)
A beautiful reminder that sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause…
and breathe ✨
