Fear of Flying

Pre­pare for take-off with Hypnosis

Do you dream of Bar­ba­dos but set­tle for Bournemouth? If so, you’re not alone. Fear of fly­ing is a sur­pris­ingly com­mon prob­lem which can severely limit your hori­zons, be it for busi­ness or plea­sure. How­ever, hyp­no­sis can tackle the fear of fly­ing psy­cho­log­i­cally, and quickly and eas­ily help you over­come your fear by help­ing you to become more con­fi­dent about flying.

It is esti­mated that up to one in ten peo­ple suf­fers from a fear of fly­ing, yet air travel is increas­ingly becom­ing an every­day means of travel for many, and an essen­tial part of our work and per­sonal lives. Many peo­ple find that their chil­dren have a fear of flying.

The fear of fly­ing, also known as aero­pho­bia or avio­pho­bia, is caused by the uncon­scious part of your mind warn­ing you that it’s dan­ger­ous to get on a plane. This would be appro­pri­ate if the plane was miss­ing a wing or obvi­ously not in a con­di­tion to fly. How­ever, in the case of a fly­ing pho­bia, that pro­tec­tion mech­a­nism which is meant to keep you safe has become over-sensitive and is now a prob­lem. Many peo­ple have already used hyp­no­sis to not only over­come fear of fly­ing, but have also learnt to look for­ward to fly­ing and to enjoy it!

Of course in real­ity, sta­tis­tics show that fly­ing is in fact one of the safest things you can do. Air travel remains sta­tis­ti­cally safer than cross­ing the road, and fly­ing has been proven to be twenty five times safer than dri­ving your own car. Hyp­no­sis will help you to under­stand this at a deeper level, and to feel relaxed, pro­tected and safe when flying.

Fear of fly­ing treat­ments — Is hyp­no­sis actu­ally a cure?

One of the keys to over­com­ing your fear is relax­ation. Hyp­nother­apy will teach you relax­ation skills that can become auto­matic when prac­ticed and per­fected. And you can do this for your­self. Self-hypnosis is a skill you can learn which will help you to cre­ate your own calm, focused state of aware­ness when­ever you need to.

Hyp­nother­apy can help you to learn a new pat­tern of behav­iour. In the past, you used to dread fly­ing or even board­ing a plane — in the future you can sim­ply relax and start to enjoy the free­dom of fly­ing. Although hyp­no­sis won’t instantly cure your fear of fly­ing, many suc­cess­ful clients would agree it could be the sin­gle most suc­cess­ful step you ever take.

Now all you have to do is dream of where you want to fly to next! We hope this fear of fly­ing arti­cle has helped you on your way.
