How can I reduce my anxiety when flying?

There are several techniques you can try! Have you considered deep breathing exercises or mindfulness?

I haven't tried those. Can you explain how to do them?

Sure! For deep breathing, inhale slowly through your nose for 4 seconds, hold for 4, then exhale through your mouth for 4.

That sounds simple enough. What about mindfulness?

Mindfulness involves focusing on the present moment. You can try to observe your surroundings or listen to calming music.

Thanks! Any other tips for distractions during the flight?

Absolutely! You could bring a book, download movies, or even play games on your device to keep your mind occupied.
