7. Guided Relaxation - Affirmations to Build Self Trust

Never tried a guided relaxation before? The short tracks on this podcast are a great place to start. This affirmation track is designed to be used in the evenings as you're getting yourself settled down, ready for bed. Don't worry if you fall asleep. Your brain is still listening and relaxation is what we're after, and asleep usually means relaxed, so the track is doing it's job!

The intention of this practice is for you to connect with your body & baby, recognising any worries that may be cropping up for you and to begin to work on letting them go. Most of the affirmations are themed around building trust in yourself and your decisions. This track is appropriate for all pregnancies and birth plans - whether you are considering a home or hospital birth, vaginal or caesarean birth.

Your feedback is super important to me - it not only tells the podcast gods & goddesses that you are enjoying the show but it helps me to reach more people, spreading the good word of birth far & wide!
