Fear Of Flying… Still Haunting?   by Shanat Kuphur

When a situation demands air travel in a more frequent way, fear of flying is certainly a worthy topic to be discussed. Should it be treated as an extremely intricate issue as it seems to be? No, its avoidable if dealt psychologically. The human mind is viewed as extremely complicated. The worries, anxieties and wanderings seem to fall into the category of “unavoidable attributes” of the mind. Undesirable behavioral pattern sin humans are related to unavoidable attributes. As such when Anxiety rules the roost there arises the Fear To Fly.

Fear of flying is a phobia; so critical that it can even hamper the career graph of professionals. A thorough analysis evidently points out numerous reasons, which can fuel fear of flying. It can be related to the effect of other phobias such as claustrophobia or acrophobia. The phobia at its summit can create fissures in the professional and personal responsibilities they undertake. The percentage of people affected by this seemingly negligible problem is not too noticeable but the highly portrayed importance arises from the increasing percentage of day-to-day air travel. The visible symptoms includes hesitance for a journey by flight or an acute level of mental agony during air travel. The fear at its progressive stage induces a terrific abhorrence in the individual at even a sheer reference of the word flying. A conscientious scrutiny highlights that causation for the phobia are many. A total ignorance or delusions of hi tech automated machines of aviation or an alarming episode of an air travel in the past are common reasons.

It is primarily due to the unawareness of technological advancements that makes it difficult to Overcome The Fear Of Flying. The astounding revolutions in the arena of aviation have made air travel much more safe than any other modes of transportation. The mammoth task of Overcoming Fear of flying can be initiated by educating the pragmatic mind of mere mortals, and sometimes that’s all there is to it. It’s more about preparing the self, and when meditations and therapies are roped in, it can work wonders.

Inculcating a feel of confidence before boarding the flight is all that is important. Gathering ample information to drive away all the myths accountable for the fear in your mind is one way to accomplish this. Know more and you’ll start believing that nothing will go wrong. Have faith in the system. You need to calm your nerves as well. Listening to your favorite music, reading interesting articles and mooning in your dreams will transport you to the appealing world free of worldly fears. Keep your mind busy with interesting thoughts so you don’t let the scary bug creep in, quite simply zone out.

It is just as simple as that to conclude. Let your wings of imagination catch wind. Let your positive mental status rule out every minute discomfort of yours. Be proud of flying, for you have all the reasons to be proud off, because, you have conquered the sky. Finally, A day will come, when “fear of flying” would like to send across a comment to technology, “hats off to you Mr. Technology”.

 1973 Nervous Breakdown: Watergate, Warhol, and the Birth of Post-Sixties America


1973 Nervous Breakdown: Watergate, Warhol, and the Birth of Post-Sixties America


$1.99


1973 marked the end of the 1960s and the birth of a new cultural sensibility. A year of shattering political crisis, 1973 was defined by defeat in Vietnam, Roe v. Wade, the oil crisis and the Watergate hearings. It was also a year of remarkable creative ferment. From landmark movies such as The Exorcist, Mean Streets, and American Graffiti to seminal books such as Fear of Flying and Gravity’s Rainbow, from the proto-punk band the New York Dolls to the first ever reality TV show, The American Family, the cultural artifacts of the year reveal a nation in the middle of a serious identity crisis. 1973 Nervous Breakdown offers a fever chart of a year of uncertainty and change, a year in which post-war prosperity crumbled and modernism gave way to postmodernism in a lively and revelatory analysis of one of the most important periods in the second half of the 20th century.

V. D. F. In Memoriam By Humbert “7OU from Givenchy, since no years can harden The beautiful dead, when holy twilight reaches The sleeping cedar and the copper beeches, Return to walk again in Wadham Garden. We, growing old, grow stranger to the College, Symbol of youth, where we were young together, But you, beyond the reach of time and weather, Of youth in death forever keep the knowledge. We hoard our youth, we hoard our youth, and fear it, But you, who freely gave what we have hoarded, Are with the final goal of youth rewarded The road to travel and the traveler’s spirit. And therefore, when for us the stars go down, Your star is steady over Oxford Town. PRAYER FOR PEACE PRAYER FOR PEACE By William Samuel Johnson “VTOW these were visions in the night of war: – ‘ I prayed for peace; God, answering my prayer, Sent down a grievous plague on humankind, A black and tumorous plague that softly slew Till nations and their armies were no more — And there was perfect peace . . . But I awoke, wroth with high God and prayer. I prayed for peace; God, answering my prayer, Decreed the Truce of Life: — Wings in the sky Fluttered and fell; the quick, bright ocean things Sank to the ooze; the footprints in the woods Vanished; the freed brute from the abattoir Starved on green pastures; and w

Warned by a Hong Kong fortune-teller not to risk flying for a whole year, Tiziano Terzani — a vastly experienced Asia correspondent — took what he called “the first step into an unknown world… . It turned out to be one of the most extraordinary years I have ever spent: I was marked for death, and instead I was reborn.”Traveling by foot, boat, bus, car, and train, he visited Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, Mongolia, Japan, Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia. Geography expanded under his feet. He consulted soothsayers, sorcerers, and shamans and received much advice — some wise, some otherwise — about his future. With time to think, he learned to understand, respect, and fear for older ways of life and beliefs now threatened by the crasser forms of Western modernity. He rediscovered a place he had been reporting on for decades. And it reinvigorated him. The result is an immensely engaging, insightful, and idiosyncratic journey, filled with unexpected delights and strange encounters. A bestseller and major prizewinner in Italy, A Fortune-Teller Told Me is a powerful warning against the new missionaries of materialism.

 Ambulance Girl


Ambulance Girl


$13.95


Five years ago Jane Stern was a walking encyclopedia of panic attacks, depression, and hypochondria. Her marriage of more than thirty years was suffering, and she was virtually immobilized by fear and anxiety. As the daughter of parents who both died before she was thirty, Stern was terrified of illness and death, and despite the fact that her acclaimed career as a food and travel writer required her to spend a great deal of time on airplanes, she suffered from a persistent fear of flying and severe claustrophobia. But a strange thing happened one day on a plane that was grounded at the Minneapolis airport for six horrible, foodless, airless hours. A young man on a trip with his classmates suddenly became dizzy and pale because he hadn’t eaten in many hours, and there was no food left on the plane. Without thinking about it, Jane gave him the candy bar that she had in her purse. A short time later the color had returned to his cheeks, the boy was laughing again with his friends, and Jane realized that this one small act of kindness–helping another person who was suffering–had provided her with comfort and a sense of well-being. It was shortly thereafter that this fifty-two-year-old writer decided to become an emergency medical technician, eventually coming to be known as Ambulance Girl. Stern tells her story with great humor and poignancy, creating a wonderful portrait of a middle-aged, Woody Allen-ish woman who was deeply and neurotically terrified of sick and dead people, but who went out into the world to save other people’s lives as a way of saving her own. Her story begins with the boot camp of EMT training: 140 hours at the hands of a dour ex-marine who took delight inpresenting a veritable parade of amputations, hideous deformities, and gross disasters. Jane–overweight and badly out of shape–had to surmount physical challenges like carrying a 250-pound man seated in a chair down a dark flight of stairs.

Fear of flying is a perennial problem among both passengers and airline crews and recent terrorist attacks have heightened the levels of anxiety when boarding a plane. In this volume, one of Britain’s leading aviation psychologists, Robert Bor, examines passenger behaviour when faced with anxiety towards flying; the mental health of pilots; and the possible treatments for people suffering from fear of flying. The main aim of Anxiety at 35,000 Feet is to introduce basic concepts of clinical aviation psychology, with a primary emphasis on psychotherapeutic and clinical psychological issues.”It is reasonable to assume that every psychotherapeutic encounter has become affected by recent world events in a number of different ways. For many people, the terrorist attacks have aroused previously palpable feelings of insecurity and unsafety that might have emerged in therapeutic work in other ways.” — Robert Bor, from the Introduction

A shadow seemed to have fallen across the sunny nature of the proceedings; for never had bride and bridegroom set forth together with lighter hearts than those carried by Charles and Desiree Darra- gon down the steps of the Marienkirche.

PLUNGING INTO THE JAWS OF DEATH . . . EVERY DAY After being mortared his first five nights in Vietnam during Tet, 1969, Richard D. Spalding was ready to fly Cobras with the Centaurs, Buffalo Bill Cody’s old outfit as part of D Troop, 3rd Squadron, 4th Cavalry, 25th Infantry Division. The Cobra *an AH-IG gunship helicopter armed with rockets and machine guns and cannon *was the first U.S. Army helicopter designed as an attack helicopter, and Spalding soon found himself pitched into a fierce new kind of aerial warfare. When not providing support for dicey LRRP missions, the Cobra became the killer half of hunter-killer teams. Once the enemy was spotted by a low-and-slow-flying observation helicopter, Spalding used his Cobra to turn Victor Charlie into Ground Chuck. But the VC were often ready with their deadly .51 caliber machine guns, and Spalding had plenty of wild rides in bullet-riddled gunships. This is his story–bloody, graphic, and raw *filled with all the fear and fearlessness, danger, tension, brotherhood, and sacrifice that comprised America’s heroic hell in Vietnam.

Comparative effects of virtual reality exposure and imaginal exposure therapy on reduction of fear of flying symptoms.

Using a single-subject crossover design, a treatment comparison study was conducted between imaginal and virtual reality exposure therapy for fear of flying behavior. Participants (n = 8; 6 females), aged 31 to 65, either avoided flying entirely (n = 6) or endured it with dread (n = 2). Participants completed initial assessments including a semi-structured interview, subjective anxiety measures, and pulse rate and electrodermal activity followed by seven rounds of subjective anxiety measures over the course of two weeks in an internet format as baseline. Before starting treatment, participants paid for airplane tickets.;Participants were randomly assigned to groups of virtual reality followed by imaginal exposure (VRIM), or the reverse order (IMVR). Measures were taken during four time periods (pretreatment, posttreatment one, posttreatment two, and follow up assessment). Imaginal exposure stimuli were yoked to the stimuli in virtual reality (visual, auditory, tactile and vestibular). Four, 100-minute massed exposure sessions were conducted during which real-time subjective anxiety (SUDS), physiological responses, and behavioral observations were obtained. Massed exposure sessions had a 10-minute intermission between halves. Two massed sessions of the first exposure mode were followed by two massed sessions of the other exposure mode.;All participants flew in the two months following treatment, either with the therapist from New York to Maryland (n = 4), or using their own business or vacation trips, which included transcontinental flights to Italy and Fiji (n = 4). During treatment, SUDS, physiological measures and observed behavior did not uniformly indicate reduced anxiety toward flying. Over the course of both exposure modes, small reductions in within session skin conductance, SUDS, and verbalized anxiety decreased. Within the course of virtual reality exposure, within session SUDS, total anxiety-related behavior, and breathing decreased. Within the course of

 Conversations with Erica Jong


Conversations with Erica Jong


$1.03


In Conversations with Erica Jong one of the most popular and controversial of contemporary writers has her say. She was already an established poet when she published Fear of Flying (1973), but the novel’s sensational reception came to overshadow all her work. In interviews from 1973 to 2001, Jong relates the extra-ordinary experience she gained as a pioneer of sexual writing from a female point of view. With equal attention to the art of fiction and poetry, she yields her views on the literary scene and on the place of poetry in American society. Among the highlights of the book is Jong’s account of the publication of Fear of Flying and its remarkable, best-seller rise. Cast into the role of spokesperson for feminism in the seventies, she has continued to represent her generation of women. In several conversations, she talks about the tensions within feminism over the decades. Jong’s fame has been deeply branded by the notoriety associated with sex. She speaks for all women writers who have addressed sexual topics and who have suffered retaliation. She tells the story of the struggle to keep writing honestly when the public’s perception of one’s work has made one a target. She describes the difficulty of escaping categories created by the media and the critical community and the frustration of living in the shadow of one notorious best-seller. In Jong’s writing, humor is a constant, and one of the pleasures of reading these conversations is her abundant wit. Conversations with Erica Jong reveals the writer to be funny, articulate, and passionately committed to her art.

Cosmic Ships: Truth and Lies about UFOs, Other Humanities, and Our Future


$12.95


• Based on clear logic, facts, and documented events • Shatters myths about UFOs and alien visitors• Grounded in both solid science and spiritual traditionIn 1950, while discussing flying saucers with three other physicists at Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, Enrico Fermi asked, “Where is everybody?” as if to say, if there is intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, why do we have no proof? For sixty years, scientists and the public have debated the answer to this question, yet none have considered what Samael Aun Weor explains in Cosmic Ships: “We are absolutely sure that the cannibals from Africa and the Amazon also felt very annoyed when they could not capture an explorer. Regarding concrete facts about flying saucers, people want to proceed like cannibals, however, it is clear that the crews of those cosmic ships—who know human savagery very well—are not willing to let themselves be ensnared, since they know very well the fortune that awaits them—that is, the intellectual-loafers would make them prisoners, the ships would be seized and used for war, etc.”Logical analysis of the facts demonstrates not only the existence of advanced humanities, but their presence on our planet. There are thousands of documented cases of unexplained ships, hundreds of cases of governments hiding what they know, and decades of an attempt to encourage the populace to discard the facts as fantasy or foolishness. Through stories from his own experience and analysis of well-known events, Samael Aun Weor shows that much of what we believe about extraterrestrials is false, based on fear, stubborn skepticism, and outright lies. He explains how easy it is for advanced humanities to hide from us, and why they must: because we are so consumed by psychological defects like pride, greed, and envy that we are a danger to ourselves and the universe. That is why they are here: to understand why we are such savages, and how

 Divided Loyalties in a Doomed Empire


Divided Loyalties in a Doomed Empire


$57.5


The genealogy of the French-speaking members of the Lewis and Clark expedition can often be traced back to the times where the fleur-de-lys was flying over New France. The terra incognita was explored to gratify Louis XIV’s lust for the brown gold of the fur trade. By the time of the Lewis and Clark expedition, the French were well integrated into the North American population. These men were instrumental in the success of the Corps of Discovery. Observers from the Montreal North West Company spied on the expedition for fear of American encroachments. New Spain sent in vain a French adventurer to capture Meriwether Lewis. The legend of the West has both French and American heroes in common among the coureurs de bois (white Indians) and mountain men.

 Dresden and the Heavy Bombers: An RAF Navigator's Perspective


Dresden and the Heavy Bombers: An RAF Navigator’s Perspective


$17.97


This is the story of a young man’s entry into the war in 1941 and culminates in his flying on the bombing raid to Dresden in February 1945. This is not a gung-ho account of flying with Bomber Command but neither is it a breast-beating avowal of guilt. These memoirs take the form of a basic narrative of the author’s RAF career and pay particular attention to fear, morale and, as the author explains, the myth of leadership. Several raids are described in detail and illustrate the variety of experience, problems and dangers involved in such hazardous warfare. So, nearly 60 years after his dramatic experiences, how does he view the bombing of factories and cities and the inevitable grave moral issues that have slowly and insidiously crept up on him ? The answer will surprise many younger and older readers.

 FEATHERS and the GOLDEN SPRUCE TREE


FEATHERS and the GOLDEN SPRUCE TREE


$9.99


Feathers is a Bluebird with an appetite for seeds and for flying adventures. It was the cold winter wind full of sleet and ice that flung him unexpectedly to the other end of the valley and to the Forbidden Forest. He now faces the unknown and perhaps death. He is a dedicated “responsible” family bird full of morals and purpose. He may never see his family again. His family ethics and principals are weighed and tested in this story. The Golden Spruce Tree Seed has purpose also, as he tries to dig his roots into the ground to make him the tallest tree in the forest and to make his parents, who stand above him, proud. He is facing death head-on! The words of his parents, “you are not dead until you rot” seem an aimless and distant phrase. He knows he needs heat and sunlight to fulfill his dreams of touching the clouds and the top of the sky. How these two dissimilar personalities challenge each other in the midst of mean ol’ crooked trees, raging rivers, the slicing knives, and vermin who would like to see both of our characters on their dinner plate, gives parents who like to read to their young children, and young persons already maturing into life’s challenges, a vehicle by which the lessons of patience can be taught and exemplified with fun and good story. Teachers also may find this a neat story to use in the class room leisure reading. In a present time when the challenges of leaving nest and home and family to discover one’s own destiny are met with the fear of the unknown in life’s toy store that has such overwhelming careers in each isle, in packages not yet opened . . . the hope that the author is trying to impart is that; life taken one step at a time, until the mountain is taken and defeated, is the way of all heroes and heroines. The bumps in the road are only meant as impediments if the traveler falls. They keep that person from sliding unabated to the bottom of the mountain to have to start all over again. Doors we selfishly want to open and that

Far Side Trouble Brewing (2005 Wall Calendar)


$46.83


From the Publisher: In life, some things just go together… bread and butter, pen and ink, fear and loathing… but in the land of The Far Side, these happy little combinations have a way of becoming recombinant nightmares. Falcons and teacup poodles? Errant sky divers and hungry crocodiles? Nerds and nerd-sniffing dogs? Has Gary Larson no mercy? Well, of course not – when’s the last time you laughed at something merciful? With the ominous theme of Trouble Brewing, this year’s calendar lineup presents Larson at his mischievously misanthropic best. Not to worry, terrible things aren’t quite happening in the cartoons collected here – but the table is set, and the master chef is working from a book called Recipes for Disaster. Each month, the wall calendar presents a different one-act opera of the unfortunate. Worlds colliding…fur flying…cookies crumbling… and chickens coming home to roost…. In other words, Trouble Brewing. Not always pretty, but always funny. In fact, with all the misfortune and mayhem staring down at you from this wall calendar, you just might feel better about the little trials and tribulations of your own life. And maybe, just maybe, that’s what Larson was after all along. Nah….

 Fear . . . What Is It Good For?


Fear . . . What Is It Good For?


$10


There are numerous self-help books on bookstore shelves trying to bring peace to Christians by luring them through the “Land of Oz.” In actuality, though, such books cause believers to stumble in their faith through a “mind over matter” approach strongly endorsed in our world today-a world without Jesus! Through personal trials and triumphs, I found in Jesus a better way to have peace within, even when flying high on a cloud or crashing to the ground. Through this book, you, too, will find the way to peace as you let Jesus remove your heartaches, and the bondage causing your woes, something mind over matter cannot do! The core principles used to bring this book to light-God’s Word and personal experiences guided by Romans 15:18 (NKJV): “For I will not dare to speak of any of those things, which Christ has not accomplished through me.”Although born in Shreveport, Louisiana, Ronald was reared and educated in Dallas, Texas, and has spent most of his adult life living in Alabama where he now resides with his lovely wife, Mary Ann, in Madison, Alabama. Having no direction for his life, Ronald exhausted his younger days on things of this world, creating for himself a life of self-indulgence and self-love. In the middle of this existence, however, Jesus came looking for Ronald and when He found him, He restored his life with blessings he never before knew-true love-abundant joy-sublime peace. The most succinct way to describe his life-he was born in the 1940′s, reared in the 50′s, experienced the 60′s, overdosed in the 70′s, found Jesus in the 80′s and has evermore been blessed, joyfully loving and serving Jesus with his life.

Originally published in 1973, this uninhibited story of Isadora Wing was a national sensation: fueling fantasies, igniting debates, and even introducing a notorious new phrase to the English language. In The New York Times, Henry Miller compared it to his own classic Tropic of Cancer, predicting, “This book will make literary history, that because of it women are going to find their own voice and give us great sagas of sex, life, joy, and adventure.” It went on to sell more than twelve million copies. Today, Fear of Flying is a classic—a timeless tale of self-discovery, liberation, and womanhood.
