Dr. Ohlson is also an Approved Consultant in Clinical Hypnosis, granted by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. He has been practicing hypnosis for over thirty years. Dr. Ron is also a licensed private pilot with over 1000 hours of experience. For years he has used his own float-equipped airplane to help people overcome fear of flying.

You panic just thinking about your next airplane flight.
You must get drunk before you get on the plane.
You break out in a sweat and your heart races on takeoff.
You avoid going on vacation or business trips if you have to fly.
You feel like screaming when your flight encounters turbulence.
Your knuckles are white from gripping the seat.
You get sick to your stomach when the engines start.

If you identify with any of the above you may
          have a flying phobia and help is available.


Dr. Ron Ohlson, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Hypnotist, has been helping people overcome fear of flying for over thirty years. In this brief, inexpensive program you will learn the following

[1] How to decontaminate the distortions in thinking
which are the underlying cause of the fear. You will
learn facts about the nature of fear and the basic
information about flying.

[2] Deep relaxation and self-hypnosis skills that
deal with fear and anxiety without drugs.

[3] Desensitization of fear by using guided imagery in
order to practice flying in a relaxed, confident state.

[4] Ten specific strategies which you can apply
immediately for coping with anxiety and fear.


You will receive an audiotape or a CD with three
recorded segments.

[1] The first segment will help you understand the following:
a) What is fear and why do we have it.
b) What makes an airplane fly. Facts about flight.
c) Who is flying. Facts about pilots.
d) The flying environment: turbulence, etc.
e) Inappropriate methods of coping with fear.
f) Ten strategies for flying comfortably. You can listen to this segment at anytime or place, even while driving your car. It is best to listen to it several times until thoroughly familiar with the material.

[2] The second segment uses training in self-hypnotic relaxation in order to teach your body and mind to relax deeply so that you have some direct control over your anxiety without the use of drugs. You can listen to this segment only when it is safe to do so. Not while driving a car or operating machinery or any other situation in which it would be dangerous for you to become too drowsy.

[3] The third segment requires you to close your eyes and become deeply relaxed, so the same restrictions apply as in the second segment. In this phase you will take an imaginary airplane flight, creating your own virtual reality. But you will fly relaxed rather than afraid and tense. This whole program is contained in one CD or audiotape for the price of

$29.95 + $5.00 shipping and handling.

Important note: This program is not a substitute for professional psychological or psychiatric treatment. Some fears are a result of deep-seated and complex psychological processes that need ongoing and intensive medical and psychological care. While this program has been very effective in overcoming fear of flying in most people, some may find it helpful to consult with a mental health professional in addition to using this program.

Here is what some former workshop participants have said about Dr. Ohlson's program:

"It is the first time I've had fun on a plane in twenty years."
R. Padgett, Anchorage, AK

"I used to have to drink before and during a flight. I don't need the alcohol any more."
J. Olson, Eagle River, AK

"I would just sit still, freeze and not move. Why pay all that money to get sick to your stomach? Now I enjoy flying."
M. Thompson, Wasilla, AK
