Overcoming Fear Of Public Speaking With Hypnosis

Is your fear of public speaking hurting you personally and professionally?

Speaking in public is a common source of stress for everyone. In fact, when most people list what are their major fears in life, public speaking ranks pretty close to the top for everyone. If you need to overcome this public speech anxiety phobia to interact with others and come across as more confident, hypnosis can be one of the most successful ways to help you eliminate this fear and help you start speaking more confidently in public.

Why Is Hypnosis Effective?

Hypnosis is so effective because it goes to the root of the problem instead of just treating the symptoms. Your fear of public speaking is rooted in your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind is what controls your life when you run on “autopilot.” It is primarily concerned with survival. Once something that you've experienced has been categorized as a painful, your subconscious mind works to avoid it at all costs. It doesn't recognise that you need to do a presentation at work or give a speech in public. As a result, you'll experience fear manifesting itself as stomach pains, sweaty palms and other physical symptoms. This is your subconscious mind's way of telling you to stop and do something else. Without reprogramming your subconscious mind, it's difficult to get rid of public speaking anxiety.

With hypnosis, you can tap into your subconscious mind and replace your old patterns of behavior with new, empowering behaviors. When you visit a hypnotherapist or use self hypnosis techniques, you identify exactly what you need to change and establish new belief statements that will help you make these changes. These statements are normally called affirmations. A lot of people use affirmations without going into a hypnotic state. However, affirmations are most effective when they are used in hypnosis. Each of the statements are imprinted on the subconscious mind. Instead of fear being your natural state, you'll feel empowered whenever you have to do any public speaking.

If you don't have a hypnotherapist in your area, or want to undertake this yourself, you can use self hypnosis downloads to help you. You may think it's impossible to hypnotize yourself but it's very doable if you use audio recordings that guide you into a hypnotic state, like the ones available at HypnosisDownloads.com. Once you've established what you want to accomplish in the hypnosis session, you create affirmation statements that deal with overcoming your fear of public speaking. Your affirmation statements may be similar to the following:

• I am confident when I speak before others.
• I am articulate and inspiring when I speak.
• Others enjoy my speaking and are eager to listen.

As you can see, these affirmations statements are phrased in a positive light in the present tense. It is very important that you phrase your own affirmations statements in a similar way.

After getting your affirmation statements in order, find a quiet and comfortable spot to sit and listen to the track as it guides you through going into a state of hypnosis. Continue with the self hypnosis to the run up to the public speaking engagement and you'll be amazed at what a little unconscious re-education can do to helping you overcome your fear of public speaking.
