Now, I’m no financial expert, but it looks like tough times are ahead… and we already know how financially stretching it can be when you are preparing to give birth (even when times are good!)

So, we’ve decided to do our bit to help out by bringing back our popular ‘Pay What You Like’ promotion.

Yes, that’s right – we’ve listed our regular selling prices as a guide, but it really is up to you to decide what you can afford to pay for our Self Hypnosis for Childbirth MP3 programme and our Standard Self Hypnosis and Relaxation Birth Programme.

We’ll try keep this promotion running as long as we can, but reserve the right to withdraw it at any time without notice, so please order asap.

You can pay whatever you can afford, from one penny to full price (or more if you are feeling particularly flush – we won’t mind!)

Oh, and of course you still get our unconditional 30 day money back guarantee too.

Bye for now,
Heidi

Ps – You really can just pay whatever you can afford, because we would rather that you get benefit from the programme and then tell all your friends than miss out because things are tough right now. So choose the programme that is right for you and order now.

[Edit: Sorry, this promotion has now ended!]

To celebrate, we have decided to ‘do a Radiohead’ – in other words, from now until the end of June, you can pay what you want for our programmes.

Yes, that’s right – we’ve listed our regular selling prices as a guide, but it really is up to you to decide what our programme is worth to you.

But hurry, because we only have 50 copies of our Deluxe home study programme available this month. After that, you will only be able to get the Standard programme or Self Hypnosis MP3.

Find out more about our Blissful Birth programmes here.

Bye for now,
Heidi

Ps – Full programme goes back on public sale at 18:00 GMT on 20th June 2008…

[Edit: Sorry, this promotion has now ended!]

There were first-time mums, women planning their last baby, women planning to get pregnant, women due any day now, midwives and doulas wanting to better help their clients, people wanting to help pregnant friends or family members and more.

As we went through all the entries and read why so many people want our programme, we were really touched.

But at the same time, we came to the realisation that we made a mistake in setting that competition question, because to choose winners would be like saying one person’s need was greater than someone else’s.

So, we decided… to make everyone who entered a winner.

(I can just imagine our accountant choking on his coffee right about now…)

Winners will shortly receive an email with the details you need to download our programme. If you entered, but don’t get an email within the next 24 hours, please contact us.

We hope that all you winners will enjoy using our programme and we look forward to hearing back from you with your experiences and birth stories. And if our programme helps you, please “pay it forward” by telling others about us too.

Your feedback and personal recommendations help us spread the Blissful Birth message faster so that we can help even more women give birth feeling confident, relaxed and in control.

Bye for now,
Heidi

-> Your programme sounds very very like hypnobirthing mixed around……??

Well, it’s true that we have the same underlying philosophy as HypnoBirthing(R) – i.e. that childbirth need not be painful. We also believe that it is fear and tension which interfere with birth, causing longer labour and labour pain.

But then, this idea was not invented by HypnoBirthing(R) either. It was British obstetrician, Dr Grantly Dick-Read (1890–1959, and first president of the National Childbirth Trust here in the UK), who first proposed the idea in his 1933 book “Childbirth Without Fear”.

Now, we’re not going to knock HypnoBirthing(R), because it works, and has a lot of supporters worldwide. It is undoubtedly the best known of the hypnosis for birthing approaches using Dr Dick-Read’s philosophy.

And as Hypnotherapists ourselves, we could have saved ourselves the bother of going up against the mighty HypnoBirthing(R) empire and just paid to attend a practitioner course. That way, we could have used their name and helped mothers prepare for childbirth the “HypnoBirthing(R) way”.

But we are Cognitive Hypnotherapists by trade. And whilst traditional hypnosis techniques work well for lots of people, the cognitive approaches to hypnotherapy are being scientifically proven to work even better.

So, rather than just blindly following the herd (and wanting the best approach for our own births!), we decided to see if we could do it our way. Especially the fear removal side of things, which is at the core of the philosophy of natural birth.

Now, because of our similar philosophy, we’re pretty sure our programme would fit someone who has done HypnoBirthing(R) before, or heard good things about it.

So why would someone choose little old us instead?

Well, for starters, you can download our programme and learn at your own pace at home. With HypnoBirthing(R) you have to pay out for a HypnoBirthing(R) class to get all the fear removal stuff.

You also get personal support from experienced Cognitive Hypnotherapists (that’s us!), whereas your HypnoBirthing(R) practitioner does not even have to be a qualified hypnotherapist.

You also get a 30 day, no hassle and no quibble money back guarantee from us. Try asking your HypnoBirthing(R) practitioner for that!

Bye for now,
Heidi

Ps – our programme is now open again for May. Remember, we only have around 50 spots available each month, so if you would like to become a Blissful Birther this month, now is the best time to do it.
