A practical Top 10 list of hypnotherapy-informed tools to reduce claustrophobia, build nervous system safety, and practise confidently between therapy sessions.

Fear of flying often begins long before take-off, driven as much by uncertainty and loss of control as by the aircraft itself.

It offers practical grounding strategies that restore small moments of choice and outlines how hypnotherapy can help you rehearse steadiness and build confidence in coping, one moment at a time.
