IFR IMC Flying

[Krallu]

Hi,

I am an IR rated pilot even on ME Single Pilot.
But I have mostly flown VFR conditions. Now when I think of flying in IMC I get nervous. I find myself looking for VMC weather still though I should be trained to cope with the weather for the day with IFR instead.

Any suggestions for training to become more calm with flying in IMC? Fly shorter flights with approaches and trying more worse weather gradually?

Thanks!
