Help with your Fear of Flying in Harley Street
If you need help with a fear of flying in Harley Street, The Conway Practice offers hypnotherapy services to effectively deal with the problem*. This is one of the most common phobias and can affect people of all ages at any time in their life and is believed that as many as one in ten of the population may suffer from the condition.
Fear of flying (aerophobia), may in fact be a combination of phobias, including a fear of heights (acrophobia), a fear of enclosed spaces (claustrophobia) or a fear of being away from a place of safety (agoraphobia). These are typically classified as anxiety disorders and often cause severe panic attacks with distressing physical reactions. Even the anticipation of a journey can trigger the anxiety, with negative mental images of what may occur in the terminal or while travelling. Often a fear of losing control in front of other people with no means of escape is central to the problem.
A fear of being trapped (cleithrophobia) and claustrophobia are frequently linked and are not solely attributed to a fear of flying but can be present in various forms of travel when someone is not in control of the situation, such as a journey by train or even a car when another person is in the driving seat.
With air travel we are subjected to media coverage of high-jacking or terrorist attacks and while air crashes are rare, any incident is given intense publicity. This adds fuel to the existing fears despite safety statistics reporting that the chances of air disasters are minimal. A fear of flying or of travel in general can often be traced as far back as childhood. An upsetting incident, however trivial at the time, may have remained locked in your subconscious.
Perhaps you were particularly stressed at some point in the past which coincided with a journey so that when travelling you now recall that feeling of anxiety. If you feel that your phobia is limiting your life and restricting your chance to perhaps enjoy a foreign holiday or pursue a business opportunity, through NLP and hypnotherapy sessions with Jonathan at the Conway Practice in Harley Street, the source of your problem can be identified and eliminated, setting you free to travel with a relaxed state of mind and without stress*.
