Managing Performance fright
The fear of being judged and critiqued can lead to a desire to present a certain image to others, while also craving to be accepted for who we truly are. When faced with the fear of judgment, it is important to first examine your identity. When feeling anxious, activate a calm response by focusing on breathing techniques, such as longer exhales than inhales or creating tension during inhales and releasing it during exhales. These techniques can help in managing performance fright and reframing nerves as an opportunity for growth.
