Public Speaking

Dry mouth, shaky legs, blank mind. Just about everyone has experienced stage fright at one time or another. Hypnotherapy is an effective tool to reduce or completely rid your self of this oftentimes debilitating condition. Fear of public speaking is the most common fear among people in the United States, even above death. This fear is caused when a person’s brain provides a specific unconscious response during public speaking. Instead of receiving an adrenaline response to optimize their performance, people often react as if they are under physical threat and become anxious and fearful. This can be disastrous for someone standing at a podium trying to sound informed and articulate as they now have to battle their own internal response to a nonexistent threat. Re-educating one’s brain to receive the correct reaction to get rid of your old public speaking fear can allow you to actually enjoy public speaking


Scott Sandland is one of the most grounded and creative people that I have ever known. His integrity is impeccable. Scott is the founder and creator of HypnoThoughts and the creative force behind the Global Hypnosis eSummit. I have taken hypnosis pain management classes from Scott. He is an interesting and innovative teacher. His lectures are clear, fun and very worth while. I have referred clients to Scott and he would be one of my therapists of choice for myself. I have the highest trust and respect for Scott Sandland.
