Hi, I'm Siobhan Miller.
2
I'm the founder of The Positive Birth Company.
3
I'm a hypnobirthing teacher and a mum of three,
4
and I am on a mission to make hypnobirthing more accessible for everyone.
5
In hypnobirthing, when it comes to giving birth,
6
we think of two stages of labour.
7
The upstage, where the uterus muscles are drawing up and the cervix is softening and dilating and opening.
8
that's usually the longer stage of labour
9
and then the down stage where the uterus muscles move in the opposite direction
10
and push downwards helping your baby move down the birth canal
11
and into the world and right now i'm going to talk about the down stage of labour
12
and down breathing so we've talked about up breathing
13
and for the up stage of labour in a previous video
14
so this is down breathing for the down stage of labour
15
see what we did there up breathing for the upstage down
16
breathing for the downstage now it's very very similar to up breathing
17
but instead of doing a nice long inhale expand we do a quicker inhale
18
and then we focus on our out breath on our exhale
19
so whereas up breathing was all about relaxation although we still
20
want to be relaxed now this is a lot more active
21
because the down stage of labor is a lot more active your body is pushing your baby out.
22
You are actually birthing your baby.
23
So it's a very focused breath with a real purpose.
24
So I often liken it to blowing out a candle.
25
If you're blowing out a candle,
26
you wouldn't do a lovely soft exhale like...
27
because the candle wouldn't blow out.
28
You would go...
29
So you're not pushing or forcing anything,
30
but you're breathing out with intent.
31
You've got to focus, and that focus is to blow the candle out.
32
And when it comes to down breathing,
33
your focus is breathing your baby out, birthing your baby.
34
So you've got a focus and an intent.
35
So you're not pushing or forcing anything.
36
I want you to work with your body.
37
So think of helping rather than hindering and using your breath to do so.
38
Okay, so when you feel that surge come on and you feel your body starting to push,
39
I want you to take a breath in through your nose.
40
But instead of counting it's just a nice quick breath in
41
and then as you breathe out I want you to try
42
and channel that breath down through your body
43
so instead of breathing out gently as before with the up
44
breathing out into the air I want you to channel that breath down through your body so
45
and I'm putting my hands here on my ribs because
46
when you exhale you'll actually feel your ribs sort of move inwards
47
and down as all your muscles contract and move downwards
48
and you know that you're helping your body so instead of tensing
49
and bracing against the sensation and pulling everything up
50
which would make it very difficult for your baby to be born you're allowing everything to to soften
51
and open but also move downwards so you're working with your body so that's another reason why there's no counting here
52
it's less sort of prescribed and it's listening to your body
53
so when you feel your body push that's when you're going to use this breath a nice quick inhale and then
54
pushing with your breath using your breath to help your body
55
push your baby out not doing this like you see on the telly
56
and just hurting your neck and breaking blood vessels in your face
57
that's not what we want to do we want to work
58
with our body using our breath to work with our muscles
59
and helping ease our baby out so
60
that your birth is more gentle for you
61
and your baby reducing the risk of any damage or tearing so it's really really helpful effective and definitely recommended
62
the best place to practice down breathing
63
because to be honest you probably don't want to do this breathing
64
when you get into bed at night because it's not particularly relaxing.
65
Whereas up breathing, absolutely.
66
Practice up breathing when you get to bed and it will help you get to sleep.
67
but down breathing is a very particular place where it's very good to practice
68
and actually quite helpful and that's when you go for a poo so
69
when you go to the toilet perhaps on your bathroom door
70
on the back of your bathroom door put a little post-it
71
note saying down breathing no one else will know what it means
72
and then when you sit on the toilet
73
when you need a poo especially if you suffer with constipation which can happen in pregnancy
74
using the down breathing will actually help you go to the toilet
75
and causing yourself less pain and less damage and make it easier
76
and then you'll start to really believe in the power of down breathing
77
and when it comes to birth it will feel familiar
78
and you can just start using it so
79
when you feel your body push you use
80
that breathing in through your nose nice quick inhale
81
and then out through your mouth but channeling your breath downwards breathing out with intent that's down breathing.

Contesto & Sfondo

Nel video, Siobhan Miller, insegnante di hypnobirthing e madre di tre bambini, discute l'importanza di utilizzare la respirazione corretta durante il processo di parto. Con un focus sull'adozione di tecniche di respirazione, Siobhan condivide la sua esperienza e le sue conoscenze per rendere l'hypnobirthing accessibile a tutti. Attraverso la respirazione "down", le donne possono lavorare in armonia con il proprio corpo, evitando la tensione e facilitando il processo di nascita. Questo approccio non solo aiuta a migliorare l'esperienza del parto, ma offre anche un'opportunità per le persone che desiderano praticare conversazione in inglese, poiché la terminologia e le tecniche discusse possono essere replicate nel linguaggio quotidiano.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
