You can overcome a fear of flying with hypnosis, even if you’ve struggled with flying for a while. Humans don’t have wings, after all. Because of this, being in the air doesn’t come natural to us. In addition, riding in an enclosed metal tube can bring other fears of germs and personal space into play.
What Causes a Fear of Flying?
Despite the fact that flying has improved in overall safety throughout the years, flying remains a common fear. The fear of flying can keep someone from having their dream vacation. It can even keep people from seeing their loved ones. The fear of flying can limit a person’s horizons.
Interestingly, the fear of flying isn’t always caused by flying. People who have anxiety might feel claustrophobic in an airplane. A panic attack may occur because of the flurry of activity associated with getting on a flight or going on a trip. Sometimes, it’s stressors from other areas of life that turn up when they’re on an airplane.
Whatever the reason, it’s important to find out what the root cause is. To conquer a fear of flying, the cause needs to be uncovered. Hypnosis can reveal the start of a fear of flying and help the mind manage that fear.
Overcome a Fear of Flying with Hypnosis
The Root Causes
We may think we have control of our emotions. However, our subconscious often sparks that first reaction without our knowledge. By accessing the subconscious through hypnotherapy, you can take control of those initial reactions.
A certified hypnotist can free you from the fear of flying. Because the root causes can be hidden in the subconscious, a hypnotist can place you in a relaxed state to access this area of your mind. You may find an old event or memory may have caused a fear of flying. The memory can spark anxiety each time you’re in the air.
Developing a New Approach
Fortunately, once these triggers are found, they can be managed through hypnotherapy. By identifying what triggers your fear of flying, your mind addresses these causes. Training the mind to respond to triggers in a more helpful way through hypnotherapy can make all the difference. Instead of becoming anxious when the trigger occurs, your mind can disregard or reframe it instead.
Hypnotherapy can also change how your subconscious deals with bad memories about flying. Instead of seeing these memories as frightening, a hypnotist can program your mind to find a different approach. Instead of causing stress, your mind remembers the event without anxiety. Finding a new approach can improve how your subconscious manages emotions and memories. Through programming, you can overcome a fear of flying through hypnosis.
Finding Your Wings
A fear of flying can clip your wings, keeping you from some of life’s most valuable experiences. Through hypnotherapy, you can identify what’s causing your fear and manage it. By empowering your mind and conquering your emotions, you can overcome a fear of flying through hypnosis.
