[quote=Anonymous]If you're already worried about turbulence several weeks/months before your flight, then you're already psyching yourself out over something people all over the world do all day, every day without incident.

Don't think about it. Don't worry about it. No matter what happens you are going to be fine and will arrive safely in Denver. Think of a ride on a plane like you would riding the train or a bus. It's just another mode of transportation (and way safer).

I got over my fear of flying and don't really fear turbulence but I still get a little mildly shaken if its particularly bad. But I don't fear the plane crashing, its just my body physically reacting. First thing I do is lean my head back and close my eyes and think about something else. Don't try to fight against the turbulence, lean into it. If its gets particularly bumpy I bend down like I am getting something from my bag under the seat and somehow that seems to counteract the sensations. But overall I've just solidified the mindset that the plane will not crash. The autopilot will hold the plane steady. There's nothing to be afraid of.[/quote]
