After nearly two decades of helping fearful flyers, we know that eliminating your fear of flying is not only feasible, but certain. The Fearless FlightKit is your first step.

"In my role helping fearful flyers since 1987, I understand the desperation of those who suffer. As a professional pilot, counselor, and self-help enthusiast, I was intrigued when I first experienced Jack Canfield's Self-Esteem and Peak Performance audiocassette program back in 1997. Included in the program is a CD utilizing a specially developed process called Tri-Sync Integration™. When I first listened to it, I instantly imagined using this technology to create a similar product that fearful flyers could take along with them when they flew."

—Captain Ron Nielsen

As for a fear of flying pill or medication for fear of flying, there is nothing on the market specifically developed to "cure" the fear of flying. However, there are medications prescribed by physicians to help ease one's anxiety. One of the medications widely prescribed that is associated with flying and anxiety is Xanax. Of course, the best medication (or pill) for a fear of flying is a better understanding of the operations of a modern day airliner. Knowledge is powerful especially when achieved for the purpose of a stronger understanding of such a wonder as a passenger airplane.

Although there's not a fear of flying pill out there, Chicken Soup for the Soul's Fearless FlightKit™ is a readily available alternative.  The Flight Harmonizer CD™ inside the FlightKit works wonders for many fearful flyers as this fearful flyer stated in her September 07 email:

Dear Capt Ron & Diane: 

I thoroughly enjoyed the tape and book. It made me much more relaxed. I never filled the prescription for Xanax. It was a lifesaver. I will not fly without my CD. I listened to it at home, at the airport and on the plane.

Going, I was totally relaxed. On the flight home I was more nervous because I only slept for 3 hours. I played the CD about 4 times during the flight.

It really calmed me down.

Thank you so much....for helping me with this flight....I'm already recommending it to my friends that are anxious when flying.
