FEAR OF FLYING (continued)
For some, the noises of the aircraft, the announcements, the dread of turbulence during the flight, the worry that something might happen mid-flight can play so many spiralling tricks on the mind that the whole experience becomes a living nightmare. Also extremely unhelpful, is the language used at airports and on aircraft. Is it any wonder people get nervous with announcements using “doom words” going on around them, both on the ground and during the flight?

Here are a few examples:

🔹Terminal
🔹Departure
🔹Last and final call
🔹In the event of an emergency, oxygen masks…
🔹Emergency landing
🔹Brace position
🔹Take nothing with you

Anxiety levels start to rise and escalate simply because of the dread of anticipated events. Events which could happen, but realistically, not that often.

Aerophobia, or fear of flying, is an intense fear or dread of being in an airborne carrier, such as an aeroplane, helicopter or glider, whilst it is in flight. People who have this fear may also have a debilitating dread of simply going to an airport. Factor in parking, check-in, security, passport control, boarding and you still haven’t taken your seat! If this is something you are already dreading this year, Hypnotherapy can help!

According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the airline industry has improved its overall safety performance over the last ten years by 61%, with an accident rate in 2023 of 0.80 accidents per million sectors, compared to 2.06 in 2014 (IATA, 2023). If you're still putting off flying, despite this statistic, perhaps Hypnotherapy is for you?

Benefits of Hypnotherapy for social media addiction

What if social media had absolutely no relevance in your life?

🔹Imagine you are free of the desire to pick up your phone to check your notifications.

🔹Imagine that posting your status and waiting for the likes to trickle in has no meaning to you.

🔹Imagine having absolutely no interest in anyone else’s social media status.

🔹What if you only used your mobile phone for its original intention – to make and receive calls.

Would that be of interest to you?

Social media has taken over my life... How do I change?

There are a few things you can implement now:

🔹Acknowledge and Accept - the first thing is acknowledging you might have a problem and accepting you need to do something about it.

🔹Reflect – what’s your daily or hourly usage? How does social media leave you feeling – up or down?

🔹Limit yourself and take breaks – set times and give yourself boundaries. Stick to them. Taking breaks from social media can give you a clearer perspective on the situation.

🔹Do something different – go out for a walk, reconnect with family and friends, resume or start a non-digital hobby.

🔹Switch off notifications – this reduces the compulsive urge to look or check immediately.

🔹Awareness – having an awareness of your situation and taking proactive steps can help you regain control of your social media habits.

🔹Take action – if none of the above prove effective, consider Hypnotherapy for social media addiction.

“Just like using drugs and alcohol to numb the pain can — and does — lead to addiction, using social media to fill the void of relationships, or other needs, often leads to addiction, as well.” - Mandy J. Hoffman

What is social media addiction?

Did you know that social media was designed to constantly engage you by tapping into your brain’s reward system? Every time you receive a notification, a ‘like’ or a comment, dopamine is released. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward. It is known as the ‘feel good’ hormone because it is released after you have done something enjoyable. Naturally, you want more and more of the same feeling, because there’s everything to love about feeling good!

With the anticipation of likes, notifications or comments, your brain starts seeking more and more stimulation; a slippery slope which can lead to compulsive behaviour. This is further exacerbated by:

🔹intermittent reinforcement (the delivery of rewards at irregular intervals such as likes and comments)
🔹social comparison (comparing our own lives to online lives to evaluate ourselves and seek validation, eventually leading to feelings of inadequacy and insecurity)
🔹fear of missing out (what have I missed whilst I was in a meeting, feeding my child, having dinner with my partner, at a family gathering?)

There are several other ways that Hypnotherapy can help with weight loss:
⭐Appetite control and cravings – it can lower your overall appetite, or your appetite for certain foods
⭐Directing you to make healthy food choices, including those foods you don’t really like, but know to be good for you
⭐Influencing your metabolism through direction
⭐Alter your view on exercise – you suddenly find yourself enjoying exercise because you know it is helping you towards your perfect weight goals
⭐Reduces stress – cortisol is released from your adrenal glands when you are stressed which can lead to an increase in appetite and cravings, and it can slow down your metabolism. Would you like to know more? Please call or WhatsApp me on 07468611869 for an informal, no-obligation chat. You can also email me at i.am@hexagonwellbeing.com
