We don't feel as relax and carefree as we do when we are having fun, watching our favorite show on t.v, etc. But our sense is sharper and our mind is more alert.
Whether you are preparing for a big event or dealing with a surprise situation, going face an interview, purposing your love, going to face an examination you feel nervous at that point. Let me tell you, my friend, it is normal. There are several things you can do to manage your nerves and keep them getting out of control.
7 ways to control nervousness.
1. Take a deep breath.
It is always advised to take a deep breath to calm nerves. When we take a deep breath and hold it for a few seconds and repeat it 3 to 4 time we feel relax.(2)
Oh yeah, this thing really helps. Okay, let's try it by yourself. take a deep breath in, now let it out. Have you noticed any difference in how you feel already..? I am damn sure your answer should be a big "yes".
Our breath is a powerful tool to ease stress and make us feel fewer nerves. Some simple breathing exercises really can change our daily life if we add them to our daily routine. Deep breathing is just not relaxing, it is also been scientifically proven to affect the heart, the brain, digestion, and the immune system. research has shown that breathing exercise can have an immediate effect by altering the ph of the blood or changing blood pressure.2. prepare yourself.
Whether you are going to face an interview or going for a presentation, going to purpose someone or something else. You have to prepare your self for your moment. My advice is that rehearse as much as you can and practice more. Practice alone or in front of others. Ask your friends to help you in your practice. keep Practicing until you feel relaxed and ready for your moment. There are several famous performers who talk about how it is important to prepare for pre-performance jitters as well as the performance itself. When there is performance jitter, don't panic!! Don't let that feeling stop you. Do a crazy thing enjoy that feeling.
One more and important thing. If you have to deal with a surprise situation at that time probably you don't have time to rehearse. So go to the washroom or get a corner then take a few seconds and think. Rub your hands together, rub your face with your hands as you are washing your face without water. Shake your hands and legs in a cool way. Cheer-up yourself, collect yourself and boom go ahead.
