How to Calm Your Nerves Before Speaking

Want to be in “The Zone” when you speak - relaxed yet completely focused? Learn how to be a confident, calm, yet compelling speaker!

We all admire people who can perform at peak efficiency—what some people call being in The Zone. That can sometimes be a tall order in speeches and presentations, when we’re often self-conscious and nervous.  Here’s a way to reach a “productive level of relaxation” when you’re about to speak.  Best of all, you can achieve this desirable state if you only have 5 minutes to spare.

Practice this exercise until you can do it easily at a moment’s notice, because that’s when you’ll need it most!
