Volcanic Ash Causes Panic Attacks

Stuck in the airport and can’t get home.  Airplanes not flying, your dream vacation is ruined.

The Volcanic ash caused so much upset for anyone traveling at the time. As I listened to the news about all the people stuck in airports because of the cloud of volcanic ash, I began to hope that none were sufferers of panic attacks.  Although being stuck in an airport is difficult for anyone, for people with panic, it can become a horror that effects them long after the planes are flying again.

I decided to write about the “tool box” of skills that can be prepared so panic doesn’t traumatize you when you are stuck somewhere.  Anyone with panic attacks would benefit by being able to use their mind in a way so they could decrease feeling of fear and panic.  With practice this “tool kit” can help to stop panic completely.  Imagine how much more comfortable and safe you would feel with a “tool box”  of skills you could choose from to stop panic symptoms.  You’d be prepared to deal with the stress of being stuck anywhere.

I know this “tool box” of skills works because ,I only received one call from a client who needed a bit of reassurance.  Many of my clients have let me know how their “tool kit” was a “life saver.”  So preparing by learning skills before talking a trip, or doing anything that causes panic symptoms makes a lot of sense.

In tomorrow post I’ll discuss some “tools” that I believe are essential for your “tool kit” for panic relief.
