If you’re having trouble overcoming performance anxiety or stage fright, our hypnotherapy sessions may be able to help.
What is Performance Anxiety?
Performance anxiety is a condition that many people experience in varying degrees, and it occurs when a person feels stress or anxiety when performing in front of a group of people. This is similar to other phobias such as a fear of public speaking, however, symptoms of stage fright can arise when any form of attention is put on the sufferer.
Anyone can succumb to performance anxiety, but it is more common in athletes, musicians and anyone who regularly has to perform or speak in public.
What Are the Causes of Stage Fright?
Stage fright is typically caused by a fear of failure or embarrassment and the expectation of perfection. These thoughts trigger the body’s ‘fight or flight’ reaction, which typically occurs when we’re exposed to danger or life-threatening situations.
These feelings of anxiety or stress can negatively impact a person’s success and it can make life difficult for those who have to perform regularly. That’s why it’s essential to seek professional treatment for anxiety so that the effects don’t take over your life.
