"Everything that was presented throughout the entire course was well thought out in delivering a shift of thought patterns so deeply embedded in the sub conscious that I began to feel the walls of my own mind breaking them down, fears replaced with understanding the mechanics of airplanes (something I actually thought I knew much of prior too) and the staff who work diligently behind the scenes every day to ensure travelling by air is as safe as can be, (stuff I told myself over and over also prior to the course), it was all now fully computing in a way I did not know was possible, I just embraced it and ran with it and went home to meditate to ensure I was bringing my fears to a gentle state of calmness. The day we got to go through the Terminal and walk onto a stationary plane, I knew would be a huge test for me personally, I prayed the night before that I would be calm and welcome the experience and that was precisely how I felt, the scent on the plane brought back childhood memories and the tears welled of the fondness and instant feeling of why I loved flying, I was so very happy to walk around the plane and even get a peak in the Captains seat! Going up to the Airport Tower was another moment where I was completely embraced in the experience of feeling the honor of being able to do such."
