Hypnotherapy for the Fear of Flying

Article by Paul and Denise Douglass

Using hypnotherapy to treat the fear of flying (flying phobia).

Fear of flying (or aerophobia / aviophobia / aviaphobia / aviatophobia) affects roughly 1 in 5 people, and can be a real nuisance. 

It might just mean that family holidays abroad are impossible, or it might make a desired career impossible if it involves flying during business trips.

The effect that a fear of flying will have on a person can vary greatly. At one end of the scale, it might simply be anxiety during certain parts of a flight. 

At the other end, it might manifest itself as a full blown panic attack, which might even preclude them from just picking someone up from an airport.

Statistically, of course, flying is one of the safest modes of transport ... but to someone with a fear of flying, knowing this at a conscious level, is not enough, and they remain afraid, controlled by their fear of flying.

To the sufferer, it's their imagination that drives their fear, and no amount of 'rationalisation' can help this. 

Most nervous flyers simply avoid flying entirely if they can, and this avoidance serves to reinforce the fear of flying phobia.

The Fear of Flying CAN Be Helped!

There is a type of hypnotherapy that can REALLY help with the fear of flying (flying phobia).

Pure Hypnoanalysis has helped countless people over the years. The aim of Pure Hypnoanalysis is not to 'control', or 'manage' the problem, the aim is to resolve it completely.

Suggestion Therapy for the Fear of Flying

Another way that many people like to stop biting their nails, is using 'suggestion therapy'.

Suggestion therapy is a nice, relaxing form of therapy that can really help you to stop you biting your nails. Suggestion therapy can either be done as a one-to-one session (see our find-a-therapist service to find a hypnotherapist in your area), or via our hypnosis download, Confident Flying with Hypnosis. Read more about Confident Flying with Hypnosis. I've enjoyed my 3 times with the mp3 so far. I think it might be working as when I think of the flight on Saturday I don't feel as anxious.
