BREATH WORK FOR TRAVELING ON PLANES

I’ve had a few people reach out and ask me About how to control their stress levels when they need to prepare to get on a plane!

During the holidays, many of us will go through this stressor and most of the time it will not only affect us emotionally but more so physiologically!

The anxiety of navigating airports, the confinement of airplane seats, and the unpredictability of travel often lead to feelings of unease or panic. The pressure changes, crowded spaces, and the fear of flying can amplify these feelings, making it difficult to relax.

Breathwork offers a practical solution to combat this stress. By focusing on your breath, you can activate the body's relaxation response, reducing anxiety and promoting a sense of calm. Techniques such as deep belly breathing (diaphragmatic) or the 4-7-8 method can be particularly effective. These practices encourage slower, deeper breaths, which help lower heart rates and decrease feelings of tension.

Incorporating breathwork into your pre-flight routine or during the flight itself can transform your travel experience. Whether you’re in the airport or cruising at 30,000 feet, taking a few moments to breathe mindfully can ground you, alleviate stress, and enhance your overall sense of well-being. So next time you fly, remember to breathe deeply and embrace the journey.

4-7-8 technique

4 seconds inhale

7 seconds hold

8 seconds exhale

Fly safe and remember that “You are stronger than your spiral”
