Say goodbye to stage fright and speech inhibition!

Appear calm, confident and strong

This training is held in German.
Demands are rising! Almost every day, you have to show that you meet the requirements and can hold your own in "assessment situations". If it is then not possible to call up the "performance" in such a situation, this can lead to mental and physical blockages developing: Stage fright, speech inhibition, speech anxiety, performance stress or presentation anxiety instead of a desire to perform. In this practice-oriented training course, you will learn effective techniques and how to deal constructively with yourself in order to transform anxiety and stress into competence and pleasure.

Contents

The integrative approach on which this training is based utilizes several levels:

The level of thought processes

  • Recognize which thoughts lead to a negative self-assessment, pessimistic ideas about a future speaking situation, etc.
  • Identify mental triggers that have led to a suboptimal arousal situation in the past.
  • Recognize which evaluation processes take place and how these can be changed.
  • How to break the vicious circle of destructive thoughts.
  • Understand and change the dynamics and structure of mental blocks.
  • How to use fear and stress as partners.
  • Mitigating and transforming inner critic processes.

The level of behavior

  • Being able to influence behavior in a targeted manner in order to achieve the desired performance.
  • Train specific behavioral sequences to master effective performance situations.
  • Be able to integrate your own helpful behavior patterns into the desired contexts.
  • Train recurring everyday situations to achieve sustainable results.
  • Methods of mental training and self-hypnosis to change inner states in a targeted manner.

The level of physical experience

  • Recognizing and influencing physical parameters, such as breathing, muscle tension, posture, etc., as the essential pattern element of experience.
  • Influence physical parameters in such a way that a change is possible.
  • Application of movement interventions (tapping techniques, movement anchors, etc.) to bring about a beneficial state.
  • Use of the entire body to achieve the desired performance.

Because they simply want to avoid or eliminate the fear of speaking. However, this attempt tends to make things worse and is therefore part of the problem.
