Flying soon? ✈️ If traveling makes your anxiety spike you’re not alone. Even seasoned Travelers have been feeling that pre-flight tension. Here are a few simple ways to ease those nerves and protect your peace in the air 🩷 1. Arrive early – Give yourself plenty of time!! Rushing fuels anxiety, move slow, grab a snack, breathe, and let your body know: “We’re safe.” PRO TIP: check your airport’s website to see if they offer real time updates of TSA wait times. Many do! 2. Create a calming playlist or download a podcast – Distract your thoughts with familiar sounds. A good playlist or podcast can help you relax before and during takeoff. 3. Bring a good book or journal – Keep your mind engaged. Reading or journaling redirects focus away from anxiety and helps time pass faster. 4. Ground yourself – Hold something comforting like a stone, a fidget, or anything that fits in your hand. Engaging your senses helps keep you calm and present. You deserve a peaceful flight, body, mind, and soul. Safe travels 💛 #travelanxiety #tsa #therapisttips #anxiety #travelling #airport #htx #therapist #government #calm

Put yourself in new spaces, because growth doesn’t happen in comfort zones. 🎬⚠️ Life‘s a stage, and sometimes growth means showing up for a performance you didn’t script. Step into new rooms, new energies and new experiences. You never know what moment will move you. 🎭✨ #trysomethingnew #personalgrowth #therapythoughts #theater #play @alleytheatre
