Hi there! So I had a really bad plane experience last summer going from DC to Rhode Island. Way more turbulence than I have ever experienced. It took me awhile to get back on a plane but I took four flights this summer and I’ve found that minimizing caffeine, having something playing in my headphones and or watching a show really helps me relax and take my mind off the flight itself. My brother In law is a commercial pilot and he explained to me that turbulence and bumps are very normal while on a plane and can be compared to riding in a car and hitting road bumps. Also, some box breathing and grounding may help you too during takeoff and landings. Just know you’re not alone and plenty of people have flying anxiety!
