Overcomming the fear of speaking in public

Public speaking, making a speech, giving a presentation or lecture for many can be a nerve wracking experience. In fact in surveys about fear, public speaking is rated as most people's number one fear, even above fears of death.

Fears around public speaking evolve around:

• Lack of confidence - fears about your ability as a speaker and others are better speakers and know more about the topic
• Fear of looking foolish - you worry that you will forget your prepaid words, or that your knowledge of the subject is lacking
• Self-consciousness - you worry about your image, accent, your hair and clothes, about what you should be doing with your hands.
• Fear of being alone - being on your own in front of a group of people makes you feel isolated and vulnerable.
• Fear of the unknown - the thought of being in an nnfamiliar situation is a cause of apprehension

Of course although these fears are irrational, they are all too real for those that suffer from this phobia. The good news however is that hypnotherapy can help you overcome the fear of public speaking by harnessing the power of your subconscious mind.

Hypnosis can be used to help build confidence whilst remaining calm and relaxed. It can equip you with tools to lower your stress levels and enhance your memory and teach you to adopt new positive ways of thinking that will give you a sense of self-belief in your ability as a public speaker.
