It gives me great joy to have started to see some clients for fear of flying again, after 2 years of not being able to travel.
As a lover of travel myself, helping people to eliminate anxiety about flying and enable them to enjoy holidays abroad with loved ones is one of my favourite hypnotherapy interventions. Over the years I have seen many people who would actually love to travel but a strong fear about flying holds them back. Very often they have a partner who is aching to go abroad but cannot, due to the loved one’s anxieties.
The great thing is, too, that it only usually takes a couple of sessions to eliminate the fear. I also record a personalised hypnosis download which you can use at any time, this is a valuable tool which you always have for any future flights.
Sometimes clients come to see me after having completed a fear of flying course with an airline. These can sometimes be useful but I am not sure it helps being in a large group with others who are all very anxious. One client reported feeling worse after the course as there was a woman sat behind her who could not stop screaming!
Its a much better idea to book an individualised hypnotherapy session as we are not all the same and I find that people’s fears about flying centre around all sorts of different things. Sometimes the issue is lack of control, sometimes feelings of claustrophobia, maybe linked to worries about turbulence. I always focus on the client’s individual mindset, it is certainly not a question of one size fits all.
So, if you are contemplating travelling again this year but fear of flying is holding you back, don’t hesitate to contact me. I would love to help you to look forward to enjoying a wonderful holiday.
Best wishes,
