Attitudes and approaches to healing for midwives.
This article is about the types of approaches available to midwives that enable them to learn additional skills to support mothers and babies within their practice. It is a combination of theory and humanistic understanding and I believe I can share useful experiences with you. I have been an NHS midwife since 1993 and am currently on one of the last preparation for supervisors of midwives courses. In 2003 I completed hypnobirthing training, my first training specifically for birthout side the framework of the NHS. (I had already become a reflexologist and had worked with acounselling organisation, doing a short counselling course.) As a result, I have been on a continual journey of learning--some of it painful, most of it wonderful--and I have learned much about the benefits and challenges of having several sets of skills. Here I share why I have been motivated to take on additional work.
