Hypnosis for Stage Fright
Anyone who is considering going for an audition for any kind of talent show or reality show can find their attempts hampered by nerves , paralysed by fear , a condition more commonly known as Stage Fright. We've all been there, haven't we? Fear of public speaking? Worried about giving that best man's speech?
These are all common events that most of us have to face at some point in our lives. Some people take this in their stride, but most of us worry and struggle with the thought of speaking in front of others. I know that my first experience of public spaeking was horrendous, my mouth went dry, my heart was racing and I truly felt I was going to faint on stage and make an absolute fool of myself. I didn't of course, faint on stage, but the thought that I COULD hampered me every time, that was WAY in the past.
During my training to become a qualified NLP practitioner and hypnotherapist, I realised that all my confidence issues were all IN THE MINDÂ and what is in the mind can be controlled and trained to deal with any fears and phobies PERMANENTLY.
This is my review for the hypnosis download for dealing with Stage Fright from Barrie St John
To start with, here is the blurb from their website, read on for my personal review:
Are you paralysed with fear each time you have to speak in public?
Say goodbye to stage fright with hypnosis!
Are you about to be best man for someone, or have you been asked to be a guest speaker at an event?
Maybe you've been asked to play a part in a local play, or to honour the life of a lost loved one?
Whatever your reasons, standing in front of a group of people is never easy.
When the event requires that you be on stage in front of people , feeling calm can seem like an impossible task.
Many of us experience tremendous fear and anxiety at the thought of being the focus of so much attention.
Even though we may view the opportunity to be on stage as a rare and special occasion, it doesn't mean we aren't afraid. Not everyone is given the chance to stand up in such a way, but this knowledge sometimes makes things worse.
Even though you want to overcome your stage fright, do you find yourself unable to envision the moment without getting tense? Do you begin to sweat or feel your pulse quicken when you think about it? Maybe you're convinced you will trip over your words, forget what to say, or make an embarrassing mistake. Possibly you had a bad experience once before and facing it again ties your stomach in knots.
Whether it's your first time or tenth, stage fright can affect you just the same.
It's possible to overcome this sense of dread and impending doom, though.
You can walk onto that stage and perform like a pro.
You have the ability within you to radiate confidence while maintaining inner calm.
Imagine what it would be like to:
Say goodbye to your fear of being on stage!
Consider yourself a master public speaker!
Feel calm and confident during every performance!
Self hypnosis allows you to access the power of your creative unconscious (subconscious) and develop new ways of handling stressful situations like stage fright. This self hypnosis / hypnotherapy session will guide you in a visualization of the big event, free of fear. You will learn to regard speaking on stage as enjoyable by linking it to positive experiences in your past. A calm and confident air will soon replace your anxiety and stage fright, delighting both you and your audience alike. By listening to this hypnosis CD / MP3 hypnosis download, you can...
Feel calm and confident in front of a crowd!
Barrie has a very soft, deep, relaxing voice with a slight Yorkshire accent which is very comforting. He starts off by taking you through the deep relaxation phase and in no time at all I could feel my muscles melting and my body feeling heavier as I relaxed into my armchair. He asks you to start counting down backwards from 300 but as usual, I could only get to about 280 before drifting off into a lovely relaxed, peaceful state.
'Loose, Limp and relaxed' is a common phrase he uses.
Barrie oftens uses the term ‘creativity of your unconscious mind ‘which really pinpoints the way these hypnosis products work by harnessing that creativity in such positive ways.
Another great phrase he uses is ‘ there is nowhere you have to be, nobody needs anything, the time is yours, not a care in the world, nothing at all for you to do except to relax and let go’ which for me, as a busy Mum and writer is a deeply relaxing thought in itself and not always easy to do so it’s always good to make time for yourself to enjoy such hypnosis sessions.
I like the choice of music and the 3D effects of his voice tracks makes for a very professional effect although I would expect nothing less than serious professionalism as Barrie currently sees his clients at his Harley Street Clinic, London.
After about 12 minutes Barrie’s relaxing words turn to the subject of stage fright .
Although you are drifting off into a wonderful trance like state, your unconscious mind however is still listening intently and uses his words to continue to make positive changes in your mindset before you go on stage.
Loose, limp...and relaxed...SO, once you are finally there...and subconsciously receptive to Barrie's words:
drifting down...drifting deeper....Barrie really takes you deep with this one........notice how wonderfully comfortable and relaxed you are..relaxed and peaceful.
He continues:...Allow your mind to drift back to a very special time in your life when you felt a strong feeling of confidence and pride, a time when you felt really good about yourself, replay the memory on the screen of your mind...float into the memory, really feel these feelings..make them bigger and stronger, brighter....feel feelings of confidence and pride....
Barrie is using classic NLP techniques here of anchoring past feelings to present situations so that you can recreate those powerful and confident feelings whenever you need them...the 3D voice effects are very effective here in deepening the anchors and enforcing the feelings of calm from deep within your unconscious mind.
Barrie then moves on to visualisation techniques which again are classic, tried and tested NLP techniques and your creative unconscious mind will respond to them in a very positive manner.
The effects of this hypnosis session will be cumulative so that it becomes more and more effective for dealing with stage fright and public speaking the more you use it. It would be the perfect aid to giving that best man's speech you may have been dreading.
I'm impressed with this session and can understand how it would bring positive and profound changes to your personal life and public performances.

Good luck with your performances

Great review. Another great application of NLP and hypnosis.
This is a great way to word what having a hypnosis is all about. The tips you provided are also a nice variety of alternative approaches.
Hi there. I thought I’d mention that there are some free hypnosis recordings available at free-hypnosis-downloads-mp3.com – no signup or anything. Commercial quality. Have been sold online but FREE at this site.
It’s amazing how powerful hynosis is and how it can help eople in so many ways, I used hypnosis in order to quit smoking and it worked like a charm. So i’m sure that a lot of people could have great benefit from using hypnosis to cure stage fright.
I like this post! I agree with you that hypnosis is one of the best ways to be confident up on stage. You will undergo series of sessions wherein you could surely take your worries away.
When I was in third year college, I’m so frightened to perform on stage. I felt I’m dying with my Arts Guild Subject because we always have drama activities. But after I undergo hypnosis with an expert my worries and my fears up on stage is absolutely gone. I have gain confidence and I found out that I’m good in this area so why should I feel so afraid… At the present I’m active with our school activities and I have my new beautiful life now. And that’s because of hypnotherapy.
Hypnosis is entirely a great solution for dealing stage fright.
Thank you so much for your CD it does good things to me. I’m a successful public speaker now. I handle seminars and trainings at the present which are my fears before. Confident Public Speaking (Self Hypnosis) CD is totally perfect for those who have stage fright.
Confident Public Speaking (Self Hypnosis) CD is what you’re looking for if you have stage fright.
It’s nice that you have a great article about hypnotherapy. It is the best method of treating the stage fright especially for students who are struggling for this phobia. This is the exact treatment to improve your self confidence and be able to face all the people around you with no more fear.
