EFT For Stage Fright
Forgot your lines again?
I’ve been there…you stand on the stage ready to say your lines or begin a presentation in front of an audience and you dry up, you start to sweat, look at the ceiling and all around you, all you can feel is the eyes of everybody watching you.
Does this sound familiar to you?
Don’t worry you are not alone, these famous people have also suffered from stage fright: Elvis Presley, Barbara Streisand, Meryl Streep and Sir Laurence Olivier, and these are the pros! It doesn’t have to be like that for you any more. There is a stage fright busting technique. Stage fright is just our natural flight or fright reaction kicking in. It is one of your reactions to acute stress you might notice it as an accelerated heart rate, rapid breathing and the tightening of your muscles.
How can EFT help you?
Stage Memories
Do you remember being on stage at school and starting to falter? Were you being laughed at? If you have any stage experience that didn’t go well. As you review your past stage memories, you can use EFT to resolve and dissolve any negative emotions that you may have attached to that experience.

Physical Sensations
Maybe you don’t know what your fear is, but every time you thing about performing, your heartbeat speeds up, you start to feel tension in your legs. EFT can be used to smooth out the physical symptoms first and as you resolve those, your fear of being on the stage also dissolves.
Even though I have this fear in my…
Preparation
Maybe you doubt you have prepared enough for your performance. For whatever reason as you approach your performance deadline any nerves or anxiety that comes up you can treat with EFT. Although it will not do the preparation work for you, it will just allow you to be calm as you deliver your lines.
Even though I should have prepared more and I didn’t…
Even though I’ve failed at this in the past…
Once you are calm, you’ll be much more likely to deliver an Oscar winning performance.
Better get your acceptance speech ready!
And the Oscar Goes To?
