Therapies to help fear of flying

This information should not be considered as an accurate or complete description of NLP. It is a very basic description solely for the benefit of people who have a fear of flying and want to know something about the various forms of therapy available.

The Human Brain can learn to overcome a fear of flying
Neuro Linguistic Programming started when Richard Bandler and John Grinder combined their areas of expertise in mathematics and linguistics and produced a system of modelling behaviours based on templates of ‘expert’ performances. They reasoned that if you want to excel at something you need to compare what you do, with what the experts do and construct a model of behaviour and performance that bridges the gap.
Fundamental to that process is the way individuals ‘see’ things. Our constructions and perceptions of the world we see can be done in many ways, Our ‘coding’ (interpretation) of the world in words, pictures or emotions has a bearing on how we behave. Linking back directly to the fear of flying we at FlyingwithoutFear.com actively discourage the use of emotive language…all it does is to strengthen the prejudice that causes it.
 

THE FUNDAMENTALS OF NLP ARE

What do you want to achieve or what outcome do you want?

How sensitive are you to what goes on around you?

How well can you adjust your behaviour to achieve what you want

How well can you get on with other people

 

Whilst overcoming a fear of flying is personal fear, you’ll need to have effective interaction with other people, so although number four, getting on with people, is not quite so obvious a feature it has some bearing on success. This is why we promote joining the fear of flying community.

One of the things that the NLP therapists say is that the map is not the same as the territory in the same way that a cast list is not the play. A menu not the meal.

Our perceptions and mind provide the cast list and the menu meal we eat is enjoyed differently by each person eating it. Whilst that may seem a million miles from the fear of flying, the similarity is striking. Your fears are not the flight, your anxieties are not the reality and if you can make your perception of flying align more with our ’model’ than your own. Remember, it’s highly likely that you will find a strategy to deal with your fear of flying.

If you feel that NLP will help you to overcome your fear, don’t forget to have your questions and queries about flying answered first. Facts are vital…do not build your strategy on misunderstandings.
