My Faux-Pas
Photography by Dawn Endico
The day has begun, not with a cup a tea or an indulgence of coffee, but with a rather simple cup of hot water (warm actually). My apple fast has begun. But, in spite of this opening, this post is actually about something I meant to cover quite awhile ago.
Over the summer, I posted a few things about using hypnosis during pregnancy. I had referred to it as “hypnobirthing,” My tendency to make everything “hypno” this or “hypno” that caused me to disrespect the HypnoBirthing trademark. I was unaware of it at the time I posted, but a reader quietly sent me an email about my faux-pas.
So, my apologies to Marie Mongan for infringing on her trademarked HypnoBirthing®. If you are not familiar with the idea of using hypnosis to make the birthing process more comfortable and such, you can get an idea about it by visiting Marie’s HypnoBirthing® website.
Or if you prefer, you can check out the actual faux-pas - I did it twice:
