Motivational Whisperers

 1. Take baby steps toward your fear. You don't need to go on a parachute or  to the edge of The grand Canyon the first day--just go on top of a small hill (or a glass elevator) and look down. You don't need to write the entire book this weekend--just take some time to make an outline.

2.  Learn tools or processes that can help you dissolve your fear. There are many "shortcuts" out there-techniques that are effective at dissipating the fear on a deep level. One of my favorites is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), also known as Tapping-see how to do that here:

 

• Here's a global fears top ten: 
  1. Fear of public speaking (Glossophobia)
  2. Fear of death (Necrophobia)
  3. Fear of spiders (Arachnophobia)
  4. Fear of darkness (Achluophobia)
  5. Fear of heights (Acrophobia)
  6. Fear of people or social situations (Sociophobia)
  7. Fear of flying (Aerophobia)
  8. Fear of open spaces (Agoraphobia)
  9. Fear of thunder and lightning (Brontophobia)
  10. Fear of confined spaces (Claustrophobia

Typically, EFT is facilitated with a practitioner for several sessions, while the individual is tapping on their own every day. EFT is especially effective when integrated with peak performance success coaching.  

Clients are successfully guided to release fear and completely reverse phobias after only few sessions!

3. Make a commitment to yourself to keep moving toward that fear until you're on the other side.   Find a buddy and/or a coach to help support you. Tell your buddy what your commitment is and ask him or her to stick by you through your process.

EFT is always blowing my mind. 'Cause it always works!!
I was skeptical before I learned it- and am amazed at how powerfully effective it is with each personal or client application to release negative energy and create new positive emotions that result in action around issues that have been "stuck".  I can do "surrogate tapping" with  you on the phone - or without you at all- like "long distance Reiki", etc.  Just ask :)  EFT is like yoga for the emotions!  It involves you gently tapping on stress relief points of the body while I implement powerful language.  It provides relief from physical and emotional pain, and any trauma or beliefs that have been blocking your truth.  Do you feel the weight of all the 'shoulds' on your shoulders? Do you sometimes wish, 'If only I could be who I really am?' If you would like to access your own guidance and wisdom instead of seeking truth about yourself from other people or sources, you can learn to use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to help dissolve whatever is in the way.

When you are ready for action and a circumstance occurs so that you experience confusion or fear what do you do? Freeze..nothing probably, that's human nature.  Even though it may be the polarity of what you want to do when you are ready for action, this is prime time to take stock and do inner work in order to move past blocks and make fabulous, free feeling progress. 

Writer's block, for instance, is often a matter of too much distraction.  Perhaps it's about needing fresh ideas, or being "sure of yourself", confident that what you write will resonate with your readers.  Procrastination is always fear based.  Before you can move forward, it's important to know which kind(s) of fear you're facing- that's the intitial inner work- is it fear of failure, being judged, fear of success (yes, success can take you to new scary places..) or of being controlled.

Once you've gotten the "fear factor" figured out, sometimes with assistance of a coach, then it's time to have a few guided EFT sessions.  My facilitation of The EFT Technique has been 100% effective in my four years as an EFT-ADV practitioner combining the EFT Technique with Peak Performance Success Coaching.  This includes conquering fear of public speaking, which is the number one fear in our society. phobias and procrastination.  Immediately following an EFT session using Gary Craig's short EFT Technique form, I facilitate  a deep guided relaxation-visualization session to reinforce the tapping, intuitive coach-like language and positive emotional transitions that have occurred.

EFT HAS ACHIEVED AN "EVIDENCE BASED" STATUS, BUT IS YET TO BE APPROVED BY THE APA

What I learned from colleagues is that while the APA does recognize that EFT is evidence based (after their review of 50 research studies)they are still looking at it before rendering any definitive decision on whether they will actually accept it.  In the meanwhile, they do not give credit to any psychologists who seek continuing education credits for taking courses in it.  I actually believe this is a good thing for now, since they might otherwise try to regulate it and retain it just for psychologists, when it was intended to be a lay technique used by everyone.

 

 

 

 

Surveys and research results show that most
people would rather die than talk in front of
a live audience...

Jerry Seinfeld jokes that,

“This means to the average person, if you go
to a funeral, you're better off in the casket
than doing the eulogy!”

Seems a little crazy, but most of us have
experienced tremendous anxiety when it comes
to speaking in public.  (Or any of the other nine on the list; EFT can help release any fear-phobia- awesome modality!). 

This doesn’t have to be just to a huge audience
either, sometimes talking in front of a few
people, or on a group conference call can be
stressful.

The toll that this fear, anxiety and worry takes
on our lives and our careers is MASSIVE.

To succeed in this world, you have to be able

to clearly and confidently articulate your

message, your vision, your ideas...

Enjoy! :)

As a certified advanced EFT practitioner, I have worked with this issue numerous times and I am always amazed at the results.
See Eileen Ceritified EFT Practitioner being interviewed  about overcoming fear of public speaking on my media page. I have my own TV show in the episode I take you through the actions you use in EFT to let go of any fear Motivational Whisperers TV EFT Release your Fears episode !

"They" say that people’s fear of public speaking is worse than our fear of  death.  The fear  and anxiety that  public speaking causes is the #1 fear in the  world!

• Are you one of the many whose knees shake and voice quails if you have to present a speech or compete in your sport or ask the boss for a raise?

• Do you quake at the thought of public speaking?

• Do you  feel terrified of being asked a question in a group?

• Are you one of those people who hides your talents and accomplishments because of this anxiety and fear that public speaking produces?

• Do you need and want to give talks so people know who you are and what you offer and are paralyzed with anxiety of public speaking

• Perhaps you are you wanting to promote your business through public talks but are too afraid to speak. 

• Are you someone who thinks you just can’t do it (or do it “well enough”)—whatever “it” is  

• Have you ever felt dizzy or disoriented when you were performing?
• Has your heart ever started pounding so loud that you hear it in your head?
• Have you found yourself breaking out in a sweat at the mere thought of speaking in front of a group of people?
• If you’re performing on stage, do you expect to be judged by others?
• Have you ever “frozen” or “choked” when it’s your turn to deliver lines?
• Does it feel as if you’ve “lost your voice”?
• Have you ever had a panic attack “out of the blue”?

Whether you are making a cold call to one person over the phone, competing in an athletic or musical event, or speaking/ performing in front of group for any occasion, you can suffer with the anxiety of public speaking.

Imagine how free you will feel when you finally eliminate your fear and anxiety of public speaking and FIND YOUR VOICE!

 Imagine what you could do "it" if you didn’t have any negative thought in mind.  Imagine that your fear and anxiety of public speaking is gone- pouf!

Imagine that you will love expressing what you have say (or sing, perform), and people will love hearing you say/do it!

 You can easily transform this fear and anxiety of public speaking with powerful visualizations, affirmations, reframing, relaxation/stress release techniques  and   EFT (The Emotional Freedom Technique, meridian tapping)  together with peak performance coaching.

 When you use the EFT and relaxation  methods ahead of time and, instead of feeling the familiar anxiety before addressing a group you are calm and cool—even when the microphone doesn’t start on time or the projector for Power Point isn’t hooked up.    

 My work encompasses helping people to overcome fear of public speaking because I know how devastating high performance anxiety can be.  I’ve experienced it myself over the years of being interviewed by the media and in speaking before large groups.  Experience/practice + relaxation/release techniques got me to the point of almost  no anxiety.  My own work with EFT before a presentation has eradicated any jitters or self-doubt.  I have a positive attitude of wanting to share and explore possibilities with the group. My success rate with clients in this field is 100% after 1-3 sessions.  We always uncover related aspects of the speaking fear, so the work continues on a average of 6 sessions.

 I agree with The Golden Globes that "The King's Speech" is amazing, and extremely relevant today in the non-vocal, texting world we live in.  The film is alive with EFT affirmations and strategies to work with any fear of public speaking- which is the number one fear in the world today - more than fear of flying, terrorism or the state of the economy.  My  success with professionals in helping to boost their confidence and public persona with EFT Coaching uses the same principles applied in the film- with an advantage of greater acceleration in the time frame using EFT.    Find out more  

EFT ( The Emotional Freedom Technique, meridian tapping), together with relaxation techniques and visualization greatly accelerates the process of getting to core issues that highly impact the problem or fear presented. 
True to the film, anger of being suppressed or judged early on, when released and cleared, can empower the subject so that he can naturally and passionately express what is important and timely.
