Public speaking is one of the top three fears among adults in both the UK and the US. Here are some suggestions that deal with some of the most common problems people experience with public speaking.
Invite the attention in
Do you hate that moment when you stand up in front of a group to speak and everybody looks at you? Well,don’t do that! It’s a sign that people are interested and want to hear what you have to say. Welcome those looks!
Beat the brain freeze
Have you ever been in the middle of speaking and suddenly... brain freeze! Your mind goes blank! It is possible that you forgot something for the moment. And you are holding your breath! All you need to do is to trust yourself,clear your mind,focus and breathe. The thoughts will come back to your mind in no time. Phew!____
Use this exercise to get in touch with the “naturally confident you” inside. Close your eyes and remember a special time you felt really relaxed and confident. Imagine the feeling of relaxation rushing through your whole body. It will pass information to your brain that you are confident and happy. Open your eyes and you are ready to go!
Whether you are someone who just wants to move from good to great with your speaking,or someone who feels too afraid to stand up and speak,the great news is that you can move forward,be relaxed,and turn into a great speaker. Remember there is hope for everyone!
