How We Help With Optimal Breathing for Communicators
OPTIMAL BREATHING FOR COMMUNICATORS: PUBLIC SPEAKERS, TEACHERS, PERFORMERS
Gain confidence and reduce symptoms common amongst public presenters and teachers such as a constant sore throat, post nasal drip and coughing.
No matter how often you’ve done it before, presenting to a group or acting in front of an audience can be daunting for many.
Breathing often alters – it might speed up and you may notice your heart rate also speeding up. You might catch yourself holding your breath, feeling sweaty, on edge or even running out of puff.
None of this helps the presentation or performance. In fact, it can cause you to lose your place, forget your lines and prevent clear thinking.
Singers generally know how important breathing is to their performance, however don’t always have the right information to breathe well before, during and after their performance.
By knowing how to breathe well through retraining with activities of daily living, you can increase your energy levels, perform at your best and improve your ability to recover more rapidly after a speaking or performance engagement.
There is an art to speaking and breathing well. Any job that requires you to talk a lot during the day such as teaching and lecturing can cause you to over-breathe. If this is habitual it can lead to a number of symptoms such as a dry mouth, chronic cough or post nasal drip.
