Public Speaking Fear

Public Speaking Fear

In this, the first part of Master Public Speaking we are going to discuss the nuts and bolts of speech, to understand how to best hone and harness them in our efforts and attempts at public speaking, and to eliminate public speaking fear.

Paying close attention to all vocal elements: Enabling Breathing, Harnessing your vocal physical utilities, Vocal routines and care are essential for mastering the fundamentals of public speaking.
Even if you feel confident in your own ability, prowess and competence, there is always room for improvement and getting back to basics is always a good first step. If you strengthen your fundamental skills, you will have that much stronger of a foundation to work from, moving forward.If you pay close attention to relaxing, posture and a variety of breathing techniques and exercises, you will benefit tremendously from the conditioning and before you know it, it will become second nature almost overnight and it will be easier for you to eliminate public speaking fear.

Posture is everything and as you prepare for your daily regimen and routines, vocal exercises, prepare yourself by taking the following steps:

Standing relaxed, easily and naturally

With good body posture and standing tall and upright

Your chest area will be engaged in breathing and your shoulders lowered (not anxiously raised!)

Hold your chin relaxed and level

Stand with one foot slightly forward (left of right that is up to you, whichever you feel most comfortable) to stabilize and balance yourself.

Place your heels at a 45-degree angle and keep your knees straight

Place the full weight of your body on your toes

Place your arms at your side

Breathe in and out deeply, gradually and naturally.

Try and do this as a set-up routine with regularity, not only will it help you with the discipline and establishing good habits, it will breed familiarity and comfort in these routines will soon become as natural to you as ‘breathing’, which I will talk about in a future post.
