Stop Being a Nervous Passenger

We're all nervous passengers occasionally. Most of us have stamped on an imaginary brake when being driven by someone else.

But if you often feel highly anxious when a passenger in someone else's car then it's time to take action. Fears tend to get worse with avoidance, and you don't want to become completely unable to travel when someone else is at the wheel.

Make sure your fear isn't a rational one

If you have good reason to believe that someone is a dangerous driver then sure, you shouldn't get into a car with them. Someone who, at age 22, has already written off three cars is sending a message about their competence as a driver, and it's not a positive one.

But if the fear is based on nothing but your runaway imagination then it is irrational and unnecessary.

What caused your fear?

A fear of being a passenger can develop for no seeming reason, and the good news about hypnotherapy is that you don't need to know the cause.

Perhaps you had a bad experience in a car before and that has 'taught' you brain to associate being a passenger in a car with anxiety. Maybe you feel as if you like to 'be in control' and being a passenger in a car makes you nervous because of feelings of loss of control in the situation.

The fact is that the more emotional you are the less able you are to make good, clear decisions. So you may be even more at risk in a car as a nervous passenger than as a calm one. Your nerves may get in the way of you making good decisions about who to let drive you.

How hypnosis can help

The fundamental state of therapeutic hypnotherapy is deep relaxation. Using the imagination, this state can then be paired with the feared situation, retraining the brain that it is not dangerous.

This session will teach your instincts to settle down and relax as a passenger in a car by reassociating being a passenger with feelings of calmness.

This will have the added benefit of your being able to make good decisions about who you allow to drive you, instead of decisions that are based on irrational fear.
