let’s talk about how to prevent headaches if  you’re flying an airplane in fact 1 out of 12  

people experience headaches when they’re flying  there are certain things that occur in the brain  

you have increase of something called  prostaglandins that’s a compound that increases  

when you have inflammation and in fact aspirin  works by inhibiting uh prostaglandins and when  

you have more prostaglandins you have an expansion  of your blood vessels in the brain and that’s what  

causes the pain in your head so these headaches  occur from two situations number one you have  

this change in pressure when you take off and when  you land okay that’s number one and that affects  

uh the sinus cavities and number two you get this  spike in cortisol okay so the cortisol can also  

produce headaches and anxiety so we have cortisol  then we have this change in pressure which affects  

the sinus cavities okay so what can you do so the  most important thing to do is to completely relax  

when you fly there’s a very interesting video  that i think you should watch if you have a  

problem relaxing and i’ll put that link down  below where you actively cause the different  

parts of your body just to relax more and more  and more so you don’t get on the plane being all  

really tense and stressed out another  point to acknowledge is that the statistics  

for deaths when you’re on a flight are  majorly less than the statistics when  

you are in car accidents and you die so if  we did a comparison on the stats of flying  

there’s a .07 deaths per 1 billion miles  okay a flight now if we compare that to cars  

that’s seven deaths per billion miles so you can  see there’s a significant difference and it’s much  

much safer flying than riding in a car all right  motorcycle accidents we have 212.6 deaths per 1  

billion miles okay so that’s much higher than cars  so overall if you’re flying versus driving a car  

and you want to look at the percentage of dying  when you’re in an accident from flying it’s one  

in ten thousand and driving in a car it’s one in  114 chance of dying when you’re in an accident  

so again that might help reduce your stress and  put you at ease hopefully maybe not maybe another  

thing you should do is take adaptogens i put a  link down below of a good one that i recommend  

these are herbal things that help you relax and  the other thing is to do controlled breathing  

whether your inhalation or exhalation is too short  or too long you want to even these out so you’re  

breathing in just as much as you’re breathing out  that can really help calm you down and the other  

thing to do is start fasting because when you’re  fasting you actually pull yourself out of the  

fight mode and that can help you so don’t eat  frequent meals don’t eat sugar don’t eat the  

snacks because that’s going to also dehydrate  you so you want to do fasting through the  

whole flight which will definitely strengthen  you and make you feel better mood wise with  

enough fluids with electrolytes to  prevent dehydration which can then also  

cause a headache so these are just a few tips that  you can use but also watch the video on relaxation  

i think that can help you greatly hey before you  go if you’re benefiting from any of my content  

i would love to hear about your success  story please share it in the link down below
