Now accepting clients for Occupational Therapy and Hypnobirthing
Hypnobirthing did more for me, than peacefully bringing two lives, Earthside.
It deepened my mindfulness practice.
It showed me how to soften, be open and surrender.
It gave me the gift of self-hypnosis, as a trusted way to control my energy.
It reminded me, of my divine connection to the breath.
It allows me to be a vessel, to teach.
I'm forever grateful.
Welcome Beautiful One,
I'm Marnique, 2x Hypnobirther, wife, 2x rainbow mami, and your coach.
It gives me joy, knowing that you found your way here!
I believe that every birthing experience can be a beautiful and empowering journey, and is one of the most sacred one can experience in life.
Through gentle techniques and mindful practices, I help expectant birthers and their partners, to embrace the birth process with confidence and tranquility.
My goal is to support you in creating a birthing experience that feels natural and uniquely yours.
I’m excited to be a part of your birthing adventure and to help you connect with the strength and serenity that lies within you.
My Hypnobirth story - the short version
I first experienced the beauty of hypnobirthing, as I attended my best friend's birth. Seeing how peaceful she was, was a stark contrast from anything I'd ever seen on the trauma box - TV.
A few years later, my husband and I learned we were expecting.
Due to "advance maternal age", and a minor health concern, I was encouraged to have a hospital birth. That would have been enough to raise anyone's anxiety, but to top it off, COVID-19 was at it's peak.
Hypnobabies class was the perfect experience. I learned the science of childbirth, how to erase and reframe all the negative stories I'd heard before, and how to positively look forward to initiation to birth.
More than anything, I believed that I could have, and confidently advocate for the natural birth I wanted. An added bonus, was watching my husband become the perfect birth partner!
After our first wonderful, natural birth experience, I trained to become a certified Hypnobabies hypnobirthing coach!
Having a few coach sessions under my belt, I was able to coach myself through my second Hypnobirth.
With a repeat of best birth partner EVER, hydration, snacks, birth ball, salt lamp, essential oils, and Hypobirthing tracks playing for all to hear, the second was just as calm, and even faster than the first!
The nurses, midwives and doctors said my births seemed "meditative", "trance -like", and like nothing they'd seen before!
