A fear of flying isn’t uncommon. To be honest, I think it should be normal. I mean, when you consider you are being hurtled through the upper layers of the atmosphere at enormous speed, in a tin cylinder – who wouldn’t be frightened?

But flying has become so common, that now it’s considered unusual to have a fear of flying. You’re told to snap out of it and given other unhelpful ‘advice’. Advice that you have already considered, but it fails to work for you.

How can you overcome this fear? Taking medication may dull you enough to be able to fly without blind panic, but does nothing to overcome the deep rooted fear.

And being dulled doesn’t help you stay in touch with your intuition. And this, largely ignored emotion, can be your guide, if only you would listen to it.

Meditation can go a long way to help calm you and melt away irrational fears, while keeping you alert and open to your inner feelings. And I encourage everyone to meditate regularly. It doesn’t have to mean sitting in a lotus position and chanting for half an hour. It can be as simple as sitting quietly, closing your eyes, and allowing your mind to drift.

Just a few minutes of this on a regular basis, throughout every day, can do wonders for your overall peace of mind. And you can do it anywhere – in the airport lounge, sitting in the park, on the train, in a taxi, even when you are stuck at traffic lights.

Another great way to help you with any anxiety or fear is to take the Bach flower remedy Rescue Remedy. This is a deep, but gentle way to overcome any fear. And you can’t overdose on Rescue Remedy.

If you are a bit embarrassed by frequently taking a dose, you can put a couple of drops in your water bottle. Them each time you take a sip of water, you also get the remedy.

Over time, your fear of flying will diminish and may disappear altogether.

There’s nothing like an aromatherapy massage to cure what ails you. Or at least make the bad stuff go away for awhile. Life is so challenging these days, we all need to take time out to de-stress both mentally and physically.

Massage is one of the best ways to relieve stress because it promotes deep relaxation while at the same time satisfying our need for caring, nurturing touch. Research shows that massage reduces anxiety, tension, depression and pain. And it increases relaxation, healthy mental alertness, creativity and general well-being. It even strengthens your immune system!

When you combine massage with aromatherapy, you radically increase its effect. Essential oils are powerful substances that promote healing on many levels – immune-boosting, nerve-calming, muscle-relaxing and hormone-balancing to name just a few… the list goes on.

Just for fun, try this experiment: Get a massage using an unscented massage oil, either professionally or from a partner. Then get an aromatherapy massage using one of the recipes below. Note: If you buy massage oil, make sure it’s made with pure, natural essential oils – not synthetic fragrance oil. See which type of massage is more relaxing.

With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make your own aromatherapy massage oil blend. And with these easy aromatherapy massage recipes, you can have (or give) a massage any time you like, in the comfort and privacy of your own home.

Here are a few quick, easy-to-make aromatherapy massage recipes to get you started. Don’t be afraid to use essential oils you really love – often, if you’re especially drawn to a scent it’s because your body needs something it provides (hormone balancing, for instance!)

One note of caution: Before using any essential oils, do your research! Essential oils are powerful substances and should be treated with respect. Pregnant women need to be especially careful about using essential oils in aromatherapy massage; in fact, it’s recommended that they not apply essential oils to the skin at all during the first trimester.

That said, on to the recipes… Here we go!

Relaxing Lavender Aromatherapy Massage Oil Blend

This floral lavender aromatherapy massage oil blend relaxes you inside and out. It works on your nerves, muscles and hormones to soothe, calm and sedate. A perfect night-time massage, especially if you have insomnia! Note: Omit the chamomile if you’re allergic to ragweed.

24 drops Lavender essential oil
4 drops Rosewood essential oil
1 drop Rose Geranium essential oil
1 drop Chamomile essential oil
4 tablespoons (60ml) Apricot Kernel or Grapeseed oil

Sensual Sandalwood Aromatherapy Massage Oil Blend

This spicy, sensual aromatherapy massage oil blend warms you up in the very best way! Its soothing yet spicy scent lifts your mood while at the same time easing your tight, stressed-out nerves. You’re left feeling warm, relaxed and receptive. Enjoy!

22 drops Sandalwood essential oil
5 drops Sweet Orange essential oil
1 drop Patchouli essential oil
1 drop Ylang Ylang essential oil
1 drop Ginger essential oil
4 tablespoons (60ml) Apricot Kernel or Grapeseed oil

Caution: Sweet Orange essential oil can cause photo-sensitivity and sunburn. Do not use before sun exposure. Ginger may irritate sensitive skin, which is why it’s at such a low concentration. If you’re exceptionally sensitive, leave it out.

Sweet Citrus Aromatherapy Massage Oil Blend

This happy aromatherapy massage oil blend has a sweet-tart, fruity citrus scent that’s sure to cheer you up. Citrus oils are especially good for lifting your spirits while at the same time taking the edge off your raw, buzzing nerves. Use it when you’re cranky or miserably stressed – the combination of oil and touch is magical!

14 drops Bergamot essential oil
10 drops Grapefruit essential oil
5 drops Palmarosa essential oil
1 drop Ylang Ylang essential oil
4 tablespoons (60ml) Apricot Kernel or Grapeseed oil

Caution: Bergamot and grapefruit essential oils can cause photo-sensitivity and sunburn. Do not use before sun exposure.

Method:

Combine all ingredients in a dark glass or PET plastic bottle. (I suggest using one with an oil or lotion dispenser cap to prevent spillage.)

Wait at least 24 hours after blending to let the aromas ‘cure’. Remember to keep the bottle in a cool, dark place. Use within three months.

That’s it – it’s that simple! You’ll spend about five minutes preparing your blend… and much longer enjoying it!
