Afterwards I sat down (shaking terribly lol) and thought "that isn't me" and no, it isn't me. But from that point on I don't fear public speaking nearly as much. I'm not saying go around with a grin on your face like Angelina Jolie is your wife and you just finished copulating with her Of course it isn't going to work for everyone, but the brain, smart as it is, is also stupid. Don't feed it short rations. Keep trying and see how you feel. Of course, if you truely feel it doesn't work for you, then it doesn't work for you. That doesn't mean there aren't other ways of beating SA. Cheers |

I've tried it and it didn't make me feel different but that may be because I barely know what I feel at all, unless it's fear or anger.

I only read the first sentence of the first post but this sounds similar in principle to the "Alexander Technique" a posture therapy exercise mainly used by actors, I tried it once but it didn't work so well for me.

Absolutely. When people respond well to what you are doing it positively reinforces that behaviour and changes it from fake to real. I found just by simply smiling more and I got more positive responses (smiling was really difficult for me, it physically pained me).

The changes in hormones the lady talked about in the video were tiny, but like diplodicus said the bigger impact is probably people around you treating you differently because you're projecting a different outward image. I tried smiling more and it took me about 2 years to get the hang of it properly. |
