NEWS FROM THE OFFICE! July 2022

by | Jul 27, 2022

Thanks for the reminder that we need to let you all know what we are working on. Here are some of the latest updates:

We are excited to have launched our new website. We are so happy to report an increase in traffic and referrals to our educators. Don’t forget that you may post blogs, and your students can post reviews.

For those who would like to have their classes listed, the upgrade is proving to be a good investment. One student referred from the site can more than cover the cost of the upgrade for the year.

Online Orders

The online ordering system has been smooth. Thank you, George, for your continued excellence in always getting it done quickly and efficiently! Thank you, Mary Ann, for keeping the N.H. office running smoothly! We couldn’t do it without the two of you!

We no longer are using the download cards. The Mp3s are sent with a link and code. This has resulted in fewer problems for students downloading the recordings. They will also now have a choice of voices including Mickey’s original, UK accent, AU accent, or a Black American voice.

A reminder about the digital spiral option- it is not printable. It can be viewed only.

The US spiral has been updated for inclusive language, and it has a new cover. We are hoping that this will make everyone feel welcome.

As discussed previously, the rebozo and acupuncture pages have been removed. They are available in the dropbox as an optional handout that could be explored. The updated spiral will be printed in the next order.

“Fear and Now “ HypnoBirthing Documentary is now undergoing its final edits. The film makers say that it will be finished soon. They are hoping it will be in time for the fall film festivals. I can’t wait to see it! It is sure to bring some new awareness to HypnoBirthing.

Welcome Serene Gato. As many of you know, Serene played a huge role in the creation of our new website. We loved working with her so much that we’ve hired her to come aboard to help us continue to improve our organization.

Big News! A New Textbook is in the works. We are working on an updated version that the HypnoBirthing Institute will own. This will allow us to have more control over copyrights, use, and updated content. Is there something you think is important to include in the new book? Send me your ideas at vkeeler@hypnobirthing.com. Title your email-“Book Ideas”

We now have a BIPOC scholarship available for HBCE training. We have trained dozens of new HBCEs! Many are now working on certification and are bringing HypnoBirthing to previously underserved communities. Check out the new version of the rainbow relaxation in a Black American voice, voiced by our own Ciarra Hodges. So much gratitude to Ciarra and Ebony Banks who made this happen!

We’d love to expand our faculty. If you are a fabulous educator, have been certified for 5 years and have been actively teaching and upholding our code of ethics, please take a look at the following link for the faculty appointment blueprint. https://hypnobirthing.com/wp-content/uploads/securepdfs/2022/07/Faculty-Appointment-Blueprint.pdf   We are planning to hold auditions in 2023. Stay tuned for more information.
