Personally, I'm only a certain amount woo, so the idea that you can think your birth in a particular direction doesn't sit well. However, having visual and verbal cues that can help you feel confident, calm, embodied and tuned-into your self, your partner and your birth can be a great, practical help. You can use these visuals as screensavers on your phone to serve as a reminder to feel into the state you'd like to create for your birth and to make it easier to find your calm inner power.
These can be great combined with hypnobirthing or embodied coaching for birth.
Are there any words you used in labour that helped you in those moments?
