Description

You’re cruising through the sky, surrounded by clouds—when suddenly it feels like the plane is tilting or dropping. Your stomach flips. Your brain panics. But is the plane actually moving the way it feels?

In this calming, science-backed episode, Hope breaks down how clouds trick your senses, how spatial disorientation works, and why your body isn’t always telling the truth during flight. Learn how your vision, balance, and anxiety can team up to create a false alarm—and how to overcome it with truth, breathing, and gentle reframes.
