Update the subconscious mind to overcome your fear

The human mind is composed of two parts: the conscious mind, which makes decisions about everyday matters such as what to wear, where to go, and what to eat, giving you a sense of control over your life; and the subconscious mind, which orchestrates all your bodily functions, such as swallowing, breathing, and blinking. The subconscious mind also holds beliefs about yourself and the world around you, which significantly influence your feelings and emotions. In reality, it is the subconscious mind that truly governs your experiences. It is the subconscious mind that is really running the show and it can be changed for the better using Cognitive Hypnotherapy and PSYCH-K.

Your fear of flying is your minds way of protecting you

The subconscious mind's primary function is to protect you and ensure your survival, a role it has been fulfilling since the days of our hunter-gatherer ancestors when humans needed to fight or flee to escape predators.

When you experience fear or discomfort, it is your subconscious mind that is triggering these emotions. It perceives a threat and generates a physical and emotional response designed to make you run away or fight to escape the situation. When you experience fear around flying it is because your subconscious mind believes that this activities pose a danger to your safety and that you need to avoid them. It is attempting to protect you and keep you alive by making you steer clear of these situations. However, with our modern understanding of travel, we know that it is safe, and we have a conscious desire to experience it in the same way that others do.

By employing a unique combination of talking therapies, we can update the subconscious mind from all angles:

  • Past – There may be one or more experiences from your past where your mind has derived an inaccurate, unhelpful, or outdated meaning. We can reframe this meaning to better serve you.

  • Present – It is likely that your current perception of travel causes significant stress to your subconscious whenever you think about it. We can transform this perception into one of peace and comfort.

  • Future – If your mind believes that travel is unsafe, we can replace this belief with a new, empowering one, such as 'It is easy and enjoyable for me to travel.'
