In this step-by-step guide, we will explore what causes your fear of flying, why hypnotherapy is an excellent option, how to prepare for your hypnotherapy session, what happens during the process and what steps to take after your therapy session.


Let's explore how you can overcome your fear and fly with confidence, freedom and ease.

Understanding the Fear of Flying

For individuals who experience fear of flying, also known as aviophobia or aerophobia, anxiety and panic attacks can be debilitating. This fear may stem from a traumatic event related to air travel or simply a lack of control over your surroundings while in flight. Regardless of the cause, this phobia can impact many aspects of your daily life.


Behavioural patterns such as avoiding travel altogether or experiencing intense physical symptoms before and during flights become common occurrences. The frustration and disappointment at not being to enjoy time with family and friends can become depressing and controlling. It can prevent you from enjoying things like weddings, holidays, work opportunities and so much more.


However, hypnotherapy offers a natural solution that gets to the root cause of these anxious feelings rather than just masking them with temporary solutions like medication. By working with an experienced hypnotherapist and addressing underlying subconscious beliefs about air travel, individuals can overcome their fear of flying for good in just one session.

What Causes Fear of Flying?

Past traumatic experiences, lack of control and fear of heights or closed spaces are common causes of aerophobia or aviophobia — the fear of flying.


A negative experience in the past such as turbulence, a bumpy ride or even hearing about an aviation accident can trigger anxiety and panic attacks during flights.


The feeling of not being in control, especially when taking off or landing, can also lead to behaviours like avoidance and excessive worrying.

Additionally, fear of heights or claustrophobia can exacerbate anxieties related to flying.

Over the last decade helping many clients overcome their fears and phobias, the root cause of your flying fear can also seem random and strange. People are often surprised by what has caused their crippling fear.


While these fears may seem overwhelming at first glance, hypnotherapy offers a natural solution that allows individuals to tap into their inner resources and calm their nerves before boarding a flight.


By addressing the root cause through this approach rather than simply masking symptoms with medication or other techniques, individuals can overcome their fears for good and fly with confidence again.

The Impact of Fear of Flying on Your Life

The impact of fear of flying can be significant, with limitations on travel and work opportunities being one of the most common consequences. Many individuals who suffer from aviophobia or aerophobia may avoid travelling altogether, which can severely limit their career prospects or personal relationships.


Increased stress and anxiety levels are also a common result, as even the thought of boarding an aircraft can trigger negative emotions. These feelings often lead to changes in behaviour, such as avoiding situations that involve air travel.


Moreover, fear of flying can have long-term negative effects on mental health.


Anxiety caused by this phobia may seep into other areas of life leading to generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) if not dealt with properly.


Hypnotherapy for fear of flying has been found to be a powerful, effective and transformative way for patients struggling with flying anxiety symptoms without having any side-effects like medication-based treatments.

Traditional Methods vs Hypnotherapy

Traditional methods such as medication, breathing techniques positive thinking, affirmations, visualisation and counselling can only provide temporary relief from the fear of flying. These methods may help manage symptoms but they do not address the root cause of the phobia. In contrast, hypnotherapy is a natural and effective way to overcome this fear by accessing and reprogramming your subconscious mind.

How Hypnotherapy Works

Hypnotherapy is a natural and effective way to overcome your fear of flying. It works by accessing the subconscious mind and rewiring negative thought patterns that trigger anxiety. Here's how it works:

  • The hypnotherapist induces a state of deeper consciousness.

  • While in this relaxed state, the therapist facilitates you to recognise the root cause of your fear of flying.

  • By accessing the root cause of your fear, you can release past traumas or limiting beliefs that contribute to your anxiety.

Hypnotherapy provides long-lasting results because it addresses the underlying issue rather than just treating symptoms. With just one session, you can conquer your fear of flying and enjoy stress-free travel for years to come.

Preparing for Your Hypnotherapy Session

Before your hypnotherapy session, it's important to have a clear understanding of what you want to achieve. Take some time to identify the specific fears and triggers that are causing your fear of flying. This will help your hypnotherapist tailor their approach specifically to your needs.


Apart from that, all you need is an open mind and willingness to change. I like to make sure all my clients will respond powerfully and quickly and so I always offer a free consultation to everyone. I don’t work with everyone, and I like to assess if you will respond well. 


With a positive mindset and readiness for change, you'll be well-prepared for an effective hypnotherapy session that will transform how you feel about flying forever. 

Choosing a Qualified Hypnotherapist

When choosing a hypnotherapist, it's important to look for certain things. You'll want to make sure they're not using old-fashioned outdated techniques. These old-fashioned ways of doing hypnotherapy feel nice because they are relaxing, but they often don't get to the root cause of your problems. So you'll leave feeling a bit better for a while.


Cutting-edge techniques like Rapid Transformational Hypnotherapy and Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy are a form of up-to-date neuroscience that creates real, long-lasting change in your brain, body and mind. 


Don't be afraid to ask questions when choosing your hypnotherapist. Ask about their approach, success rate, and background. It's important that you feel comfortable with your therapist and trust them to guide you through the process of unleashing the power of hypnotherapy in your life. 


Most therapists should offer you a free consultation to make sure it's the right fit. I don't take on every client that gets in touch with me. I assess your issues more deeply in a free consultation and then decide if I am confident I can help you. If not, I will point you in another direction. 

The Hypnotherapy Process

Hypnotherapy is a natural and effective way to conquer your fear of flying.

By accessing the subconscious mind through hypnosis, you can overcome deep-seated anxieties that have been holding you back for years. With just one session of Rapid Transformational Hypnotherapy, you can clear the anxiety that has been preventing you from enjoying air travel without relying on medication or other temporary solutions. Trust in this powerful tool to help empower you towards conquering your fears once and for all!

Identifying the Root Cause of Your Fear

Understanding triggers that cause anxiety is the first step in identifying the root cause of your fear of flying. Triggers can be anything from turbulence to being in a confined space to the most random thing you can imagine. Once identified, you can start exploring past experiences related to flying and how they may have contributed to your current fear. Recognizing irrational thoughts and beliefs is also important as they can exacerbate your anxiety and make it harder for you to overcome.

Some ways to explore these topics include:

  • Writing down specific situations or events that trigger your anxiety when flying.

  • Reflecting on any negative experiences related to air travel, such as a bumpy flight or feeling trapped on an airplane.

  • Examining any negative self-talk or limiting beliefs about yourself and flying.

By understanding these triggers, past experiences, and thought patterns, you are one step closer towards overcoming your fear of flying with hypnotherapy.

Reframing Negative Thoughts and Beliefs

Challenging negative self-talk is a powerful tool to reframe your beliefs and overcome fear. Replace limiting thoughts such as “I can’t handle flying” with positive affirmations like “I am strong and capable of handling any challenge.” By consciously choosing more empowering language, you train your mind to focus on possibilities instead of limitations.


Another effective strategy for reframing your fear of flying is creating a new perspective. Instead of viewing flight as a scary experience, see it as an opportunity for growth and adventure. Imagine yourself looking out the window at breathtaking views or feeling the excitement of visiting a new destination. With hypnotherapy, you can access the subconscious mind where these positive associations are strengthened even further.

Replacing Fear with Confidence

Cultivating a sense of control over one's thoughts and emotions while airborne is crucial for overcoming the fear of flying. Hypnotherapy teaches individuals to reframe negative beliefs by acknowledging them but then replacing them with more helpful loving ones. With this newfound sense of control, travellers can fly confidently without being held back by their fears.

Practising Self-Care and Positive Thinking

Identifying triggers that may cause your fear of flying to resurface is an essential part of practicing self-care and positive thinking. By understanding what sets off your anxiety, you can prepare yourself for potential triggers and develop coping mechanisms.

Here are some tips for developing a personalized self-care routine before, during, and after flights:

  • Practice relaxation techniques such as meditation.

  • Bring comforting items with you on the flight.

  • Listen to calming music or guided meditations.

  • Stay hydrated and nourished.

  • Take breaks from screens.

  • Engage in activities that distract you from anxious thoughts.

Remember that practicing self-care takes time and effort but it's worth investing in your mental health to get to the root cause.

If you’re ready to claim back your life, start travelling with ease and freedom and enjoy your life to the full, go ahead and book a free consultation and we can assess if Rapid Transformational Hypnotherapy is for you.
