How can I manage my anxiety during flights?

There are several strategies you can use to manage anxiety while flying. Would you like tips on relaxation techniques or distraction methods?

I think relaxation techniques would be helpful.

Great choice! Deep breathing exercises can be very effective. Try inhaling deeply for four counts, holding for four, and exhaling for four. Would you like to learn more techniques?

Yes, what else can I do?

You can also try progressive muscle relaxation, where you tense and then relax each muscle group. Listening to calming music or guided meditations can help too.

That sounds helpful! Any tips for before the flight?

Absolutely! Preparing ahead can ease anxiety. Consider visiting the airport in advance, packing comforting items, and planning your travel day to minimize stress.
