Shadowing Practice: Why HYPNOBIRTHING Won't Work For You - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creando lección...
1
Hypnobirthing is a method of managing the intense sensations of labor,
2
using meditation, breathing techniques, and visualization to fall into a deep relaxation throughout the birthing process.
3
It's becoming more trendy and more popular for parents to use this tool in labor,
4
and if you haven't used it,
5
you might be wondering, will hypnobirthing work for me and my birth?
6
So let's talk about it.
7
I'm Bridget Tyler, a birth doula,
8
childbirth educator, and mama, And if you're new to this channel,
9
make sure you subscribe so you never miss out on any videos that equip you for an empowering and informed birthing experience.
10
In this video, I'm talking about some ways that hypnobirthing might not work for you in your birth.
11
Number one, if you're not practicing it enough,
12
you won't naturally use hypnobirthing in labor.
13
Hypnobirthing is all about connecting to your breath
14
and using the power of your mind to lead your body in the direction
15
that you want it to go using visualization and meditation.
16
In order for hypnobirthing to work for you in your birth,
17
you need to make it a daily practice starting early on in pregnancy as early as you can.
18
The second reason hypnobirthing may not work for you is
19
if you're putting all your eggs into one basket and hypnobirthing is the only way you're preparing to to cope in birth.
20
Labor is intense and having multiple tools to bring out as you need them is
21
so valuable to help you during different times in labor.
22
Hypnobirthing is a powerful foundation to build on.
23
Then you can add in labor positions depending on where baby is in your pelvis,
24
counter pressure, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, etc. All of these things work together to help you stay in control of your birth,
25
but one alone may not be effective or work for the entirety of labor.
26
3. You're using only your trust and belief in birth to guide your experience in a system
27
that doesn't always trust in birth and is prone to using interventions.
28
Listen, your intuition and belief in yourself is one of the most powerful tools that you can bring into your birth.
29
However, you might feel unprepared and ill-equipped if your basis of decision-making to avoid the interventions being suggested by your providers,
30
such as induction, augmentation to help speed up labor,
31
an epidural, et cetera, is only your belief in birth and yourself.
32
Is your intuition and that belief enough?
33
It should be.
34
You shouldn't have to explain anything,
35
but you may feel you need to,
36
and you may make decisions you're uncomfortable with if you don't have the information or knowledge to help you navigate them.
37
Having information along with your deep beliefs
38
and philosophy of birth helps you feel confident to strive towards the type of birth
39
that you want and are working so hard for.
40
So to help make hypnobirthing work for you and your birth,
41
you need to be practicing your breath work and meditations daily.
42
You need to build out your toolbox to support labor progress,
43
and you need to be informed so you can confidently navigate labor equipped with knowledge
44
and your belief to feel empowered in any situation.
45
Now, if you want all of these things,
46
I really encourage you to check out the Built to Birth Premium membership.
47
It includes a hypnobirthing course and meditation albums that accompany it.
48
The birth course teaches you breathing strategies,
49
counter pressure, acupressure points, birthing positions,
50
and way more, to fill your toolbox with strategies to help you labor smarter, not harder.
51
And it teaches you how to support normal natural physiologic labor,
52
as well as common interventions,
53
and how they may impact the birthing process,
54
and how to navigate them if they become necessary.
55
So check out that full Built to Birth course link down below
56
that includes the hypnobirthing course or take the free mini birth or VBAC class today.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
