If you can remain calm and relaxed during labour it will give your body the opportunity to release the beneficial endorphins , which act as the body's natural analgesia. It will also prevent the body from releasing adrenaline, which can have the opposite effect and inhibit labour. Natal hypnotherapy is also a wonderful tool to practice as it takes you to a far deeper level of relaxation. If you start early in pregnancy, you'll have a good length of time to train your body to naturally and easily drop into a deep state of relaxation.
