Excellence in evidence-based care

Mental Altitude

Coming soon!

Get ready for the launch of something really exciting. Imagine being able to select psychological self help skills specifically tailored to aviation professionals aimed at building your skills and knowledge in managing your psychological wellbeing in this wonderful but challenging industry. Scientific research demonstrates that evidence based self help is effective in preventing some mental health issues and promoting good mental health. For a small monthly subscription, you'll be able to access detailed self help on topics such as those covered on my blog pages. The blogs all have one tip related to each subject but I'm never going to claim "one size fits all' The materials you can access through "Mental Altitude" have many more so that you can select the ones that suit you.

Subscribing to Mental Altitude will mean you can select the worksheets, podcasts or detailed exercises most interesting to you and download them to a smartphone, tablet or laptop to keep. With Mental Altitude, pilots can access a range of tools and techniques to help improve their mental wellbeing and performance in the cockpit. From stress management strategies to confidence-building exercises, our program is created to address the unique psychological challenges that pilots face in their line of work. Subscribers will have access to exclusive content developed by experienced aviation psychologists. Mental Altitude aims to support pilots in maintaining a healthy mindset and coping with the pressures of their demanding profession. Join Mental Altitude today and take the first step towards a healthier and more resilient mind in the skies.

Struggling to manage sleep around an aviation style shift pattern and/or jet lag? Start with the worksheet on sleep hygiene and applying that in hotel accommodation, add in a recorded relaxation routine designed for hotel stays and have a look at the sleeping at home tip sheet.

Finding it a challenge to manage family commitments with young children? Start with the detailed tip sheet on managing relationships at 30 000 ft (a much more detailed version one than the blog with many tips). Use the "how do we talk about this" worksheet to support difficult conversations at home or "Keeping in touch" to help you and your family communicate across time zones and continents.

Think you're fine but want too make sure you stay that way: Mental Altitude has a library of App Guides pointing you at (among other things) sleep aids, relaxation apps and games that support focus and relaxation and suggestions on how to use them to get the most impact on your psychological wellbeing.

All of this and more coming soon. Sign up to the launch list to be among the first to find out about Mental Altitude soon!
