It has been found through surveys that the number one fear in the world is that of public speaking. And this even surpassed that of the fear of death and financial ruin!
In today’s context, it is likely that most of us would require to speak to people one way or another. It could be the size of the group that differ, or the formality, but one cannot run away from it. A sales person may need to give a one-on-one presentation, an executive may need to make a presentation to all the managers in the company, or a housewife may be approached by her friend to be the MC in the wedding ceremony.
Talking to strangers, giving professional presentations and making public speeches can leave you with butterflies in your stomach and your legs feeling like jelly. Your mind may become cluttered/blank and your voice may stammer.
Why is it that a person, after all the preparation, still suffer from potentially crippling fears? There are also many books written on how to make good presentations, giving the readers wide ranging tips such as what to prepare as well as how to conquer the presentation jitters. In spite of so much “help” available, people with fear of public speaking may still find it tough going.
The crux of the issue really lies in our subconscious mind. It is here where our fears have a hold on us, and it is also where our emotions and feelings are stored. This is where hypnotherapy comes in. Through hypnosis, you can learn to recognise your body’s unique reaction to stress and anxiety. At the same time, you can learn to let go of past habits and develop new positive ways of thinking and feeling.
Call me to find out more about how hypnosis can help you to enjoy speaking in public, making good presentation and more importantly, getting your thoughts across in a calm, assertive and impressive manner.
