Fear of Public Speaking

For many of us the thought of getting up and speaking in front of a crowd is a little daunting to say the least, but imagine if that fear was so intense you couldn't even speak up in front of a handful of people.

These days, public speaking can be a major part of working life. Presentations, training courses, workshops, seminars all call for public speaking in varying degrees and it doesn't matter how knowledgeable or good you are at your job – if you can't speak up in public then it reflects badly on your abilities and could be detremental to your career.

Reasons why someone might fear public speaking include:
• Lack of confidence – either confidence in knowledge, articulation, accent, grammar or image
• Vulnerability – the feeling of being isolated and alone
• Unfamiliarity – being in an unknown place or situation that brings on feelings of vulnerability

The fear of public speaking – just like many phobias – is irrational and we all know we can come to no harm, nevertheless, for some it is a real a fear as if facing a life-threatening situation. There is a solution though. If your self-confidence is affecting your ability to speak in public and you're not happy with how your career is progressing then hypnotherapy can help.

How can hypnotherapy help?
Hypnotherapy taps into the power of the subconscious mind to take control over anxiety, fear and confidence. You will learn how to recognise the triggers that bring on the stresses associated with public speaking and replace them with positive, calm, confidence-boosting thoughts that will enable you to speak in public with authority, conviction and self-assurance. When you are deeply relaxed you will be able to focus on the techniques that help with your confidence, and when this is addressed the other issues start to remedy themselves and your phobia subsides until it is gone forever.
