“Calm, gentle, spirited and knowledgable are just a few of the words that come to mind to describe Karen. There are no fast passes handed out to midwives when having a baby so Karen’s course was top of my list to help me prepare to relax, let go and use my breath to its maximum capacity. I practiced the techniques to Karen’s own audio and, on the day,with a few other tools in my tool kit (TENS, pool, gas and air), I had the most beautiful birth at home. Again with number 2and 3 I topped up with breathe to a better birth in order to re-focus as a busy mum and midwife and it paid off no end. Her techniques can be used in any type of birth with massive benefit for women and their partners. Thank you Karen for really opening my eyes to the world of hypnobirthing, for joining my joinery and helping me to birth my 3 children in a calm and peaceful way” Vicky Cochrane

“It’s quite rare to find someone who is intuitive, passionate and dedicated to bringing about new ways of birthing. Karen teaches with cutting edge spirituality, professionalism, immense knowledge and is very inspirational. Her work is powerful, transformational and uplifting ; a breath of air in this day and age where birthing is full of fear. As a birth doula I teach Breathe to a Better Birth to my clients and I truly believe that this is the foundation to giving birth with joy. Not only is Karen a beautiful soul to work with but an amazing teacher and friend. She pours her love and energy into everyone she meets. I feel blessed to have her in my life and I thank you Karen for shining your light so that others can see their light too” Pamela Rogers

Testimonials

“Without a doubt we would not have had the natural birth of our choise without Hypnobirthing (R) and Karen. This was so different to my first traumatic birth. There was no fear or unmanageable pain, just hope and joy.”

“Hi Karen, another great birth which I totally put down to Hypnobirthing. Breathing is so powerful! No pain relief and I got my water birth again. Five hours from first twinge to delivery and boy is she chilled.”
