Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you struggle with public speaking, or simply interpersonal communication, this is your book! Janice Dean's powerful, entertaining, and cleverly written parable takes the fear out of public speaking and replaces it with practical techniques. Whether you are making a toast at a wedding, giving your first presentation in front of an audience, or a CEO of a major corporation, the techniques you will learn will banish your fears of public speaking forever. Indispensable advice is presented through a story about former world-renowned opera director, Maestro Albert Snow, who finds himself assigned to the mailroom in the first level of Heaven. And quickly realizes-Heaven is not all he thought it would be. When his persnickety determination to take charge threatens to keep him there for all eternity, he strikes a deal with St. Michael and is given a series of nine missions. But here's the catch ... he is transported to Earth with no inkling of the problems he's expected to solve or even his earthly identity. Along the way he meets everyday people held back by the fear of public speaking. With each mission he shows them how to conquer their fears so they can share their unique gifts with the world. With Maestro Snow's signature touch of brilliance, creativity and confidence, he overcomes each increasingly difficult mission only to become lost and unhinged in his final mission. Captivating from the very start with a stand-up- and-cheer ending. This book is a winner!
Download or read book Playing Scared written by Sara Solovitch and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stage fright is one of the human psyche's deepest fears. Over half of British adults name public speaking as their greatest fear, even greater than heights and snakes. Laurence Olivier learned to adapt to it, as have actors Salma Hayek and Hugh Grant. Musicians such as Paul McCartney and Adele have battled it and learned to cope. Playing Scared is Sara Solovitch's journey into the myriad causes of stage fright and the equally diverse ways we can overcome it. As a young child, Sara studied piano and fell in love with music. As a teen, she played Bach and Mozart at her hometown's annual music festival, but was overwhelmed by stage fright, which led her to give up aspirations of becoming a professional pianist. In her late fifties, Sara gave herself a one-year deadline to tame performance anxiety and play before an audience. She resumed music lessons, while exploring meditation, exposure therapy, cognitive therapy, biofeedback and beta blockers, among many other remedies. She practiced performing in airports, hospitals and retirement homes. Finally, the day before her sixtieth birthday, she gave a formal recital for an audience of fifty. Using her own journey as inspiration, Sara has written a thoughtful and insightful cultural history of performance anxiety and a tribute to pursuing personal growth at any age.

Download or read book The Hidden Brain written by Shankar Vedantam and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hidden brain is the voice in our ear when we make the most important decisions in our lives—but we’re never aware of it. The hidden brain decides whom we fall in love with and whom we hate. It tells us to vote for the white candidate and convict the dark-skinned defendant, to hire the thin woman but pay her less than the man doing the same job. It can direct us to safety when disaster strikes and move us to extraordinary acts of altruism. But it can also be manipulated to turn an ordinary person into a suicide terrorist or a group of bystanders into a mob. In a series of compulsively readable narratives, Shankar Vedantam journeys through the latest discoveries in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral science to uncover the darkest corner of our minds and its decisive impact on the choices we make as individuals and as a society. Filled with fascinating characters, dramatic storytelling, and cutting-edge science, this is an engrossing exploration of the secrets our brains keep from us—and how they are revealed.

Download or read book Stagefright written by Robert Triplett and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stagefright. The very word causes many to shudder. Yet most authorities now agree that unless a performer experiences stagefright to some degree, his or her performance will almost certainly seem hollow and lifeless. Most people who suffer form stagefright don't understand how to direct its energy and use it to their advantage. Lacking this knowledge, they try to overcome their fear by rigidly containing their thoughts, feelings, and movements. Triplett urges stagefright victims to give up their protective measures and voluntarily enter the block of stagefright. In doing so, one can move through the block to the new and positive qualities which await the performer on the other side. Step by step he describes this fascinating process, showing how nervous tensions can be transformed into productive energy and feelings of joyous self-assurance for the performer. -- From publisher's description.
