Helianthe Rusken DCH DHP MBIH is an Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist, a qualified HypnoBirthing practitioner, trainer and author of the boek Bevallen met Hypnobirthing.
Helianthe has great energy and a lively manner. She teaches with passion and loves showing couples how to achieve an easier, positive and calm birth. She has over 16 years of experience as the one of the first hypnobirthing practitioners in Europe.
Helianthe:Our mindset is important with everything we do in life, especially during birth! Fear can be in the way of the natural process, whilst confidence and trust supports it.
Helianthe has used the hypnoBirthing tools and techniques with the birth of both of her sons. As she had never given birth before and was affected by friends and families’ negative birth stories, she was still somewhat sceptical and still not 100% sure whether birth could be somewhat different than what you see in most movies.
By practising the relaxation and breathing techniques, listening to the hypnobirthing audio sessions and following the program, her first son was born in hospital without drugs or intervention, a natural birth that took only just under 4 hours. The second time she was pregnant she decided to give birth at home and gave birth naturally to her youngest son in a record-time of 1,5 hours.
Helianthe is the founder of Mucha Mama
I am passionate about empowering women in their experience of birth.
I’m a mom of two lovely girls. The transformation I have made during this process and becoming a mother is the best thing that ever happened to me.
With both births I imagined the most ideal pictures in my mind. Unfortunately with both it ended up with unplanned medical intervention in the hospital. What was very apparent though, is that even though things might not always be plain sailing, you can experience this in the most powerful, loving and beautiful way.
Also, your mind-set can make a big difference in how you experience this. Both of my birth experiences were beautiful, loving and very relaxing and even with the intervention I managed to follow my own intuition and use the hypnobirthing techniques.
How you can do this for yourself, during your birth, I will teach you during one of the 1-day courses in Amsterdam which I would love for you to attend with your partner.
The course includes relaxation- and breathing techniques, visualisations, fear release, affirmations and much much more.
Come and join us and empower yourself in the journey of birth.
I look forward to sharing these tools with you during one of my enjoyable courses. Enjoy your pregnancy and looking forward to hopefully meeting you soon!
During my pregnancy I was scared of giving birth. Different thoughts went through my mind such as, that the baby was not going to fit, that it would be very painful and eventually interventions would be necessary. It felt like a bad idea to go into labour for the first time whilst fears and negative thoughts filled my mind. Luckily Helianthe (founder of Mucha Mama) was there to help me.
At 30 weeks pregnancy I booked a private Mucha Mama Hypnobirthing Course. The exercises were easy to do and very effective and enjoyable. By doing the course I gained the confidence that giving birth could be easy, that I could be relaxed and that it could be a beautiful experience. I also gained trust in myself and in my body.
The birth of my beautiful son went very smoothly. The time it took from the first contraction until I was able to hold my baby was only 4 hours in total. It was a wonderful birth and people were very surprised about how quickly it went. No doubt that this became the most beautiful day in my life. I look back on it with a lot of joyful feelings.
As a Mucha Mama Hypnobirthing Teacher with her own positive experience, I love to share hypnobirthing with you. I can help you towards your own positive and beautiful birthing experience.
During the hypnobirthing course I will take you though all the techniques and information you need to stay relaxed and feeling in control during your birth. We will practise with deep relaxation, positive affirmations/visualisations, breathing techniques, calming massage and releasing fears and negative thoughts. The course is very practical and the exercises are very relaxing, even for the daddy-to-be.
I hope to meet you in one of my courses.
Evelinn is a very nice and down to earth teacher. We surely enjoyed this day with her and will go home feeling more confident, positive and in control about giving birth.
Thank you!

Hi, I am Krist’l D’haene from Belgium. I am a holistic birth worker, a midwife/doula at first and now offering a variety of services so that you can experience pregnancy and parenthood at fullest thanks to mindful support for your body, heart and soul.
I teach floor/water yoga, hypnobirthing, childbirth education, baby swimming and offer Thai/Ayurveda/baby massage, craniosacral therapy and Ayurveda food and lifestyle support.
I am currently based in Bangkok. I live in SE Asia since 1996 in Laos, Thailand and Cambodia, mostly working as a midwife with different organizations. I manage to speak the languages and get insight in the culture and the birth/postpartum traditions. I gave birth to my son in Bangkok in 2002.
As an expat mom, far away from family and friends, I deeply missed support. Therefore I set up a private practice in Phnom Penh/Cambodia, providing holistic support to pregnant couples from conception into parenting between 2011-2015. The recent 3 years in Belgium allowed me to take more training. I am 59 now and I am very interested in menopause/andropause and how we can manage this time at best with Ayurveda and hormone yoga therapy.
Feel free to contact me and find out how I can help you. I might speak your language!
