In The SpotLight: Guided Exercises to Create a Calm and Confident State of Mind, Body, & Spirit While Speaking or Performing Janet Esposito, M.S.W., author of In The SpotLight: Overcome Your Fear of Public Speaking and Performing, has teamed up with colleague Diane Bahr-Groth,C.Hy., who is a Certified Hypnotherapist, to create a powerful CD that helps you to face any public speaking or performing challenge with greater relaxation, confidence, and ease! Janet will lead you through a series of exercises, including a guided relaxation and healing meditation exercise; an exercise to help you desensitize to the feelings and sensations of fear; a positive visualization and self-affirmation exercise; and a coaching segment. All of these exercises will help you to create a relaxed, confident, and empowered state of mind, body, and spirit as you think about and approach any speaking or performing challenge. Diane will lead you through a self-hypnosis session designed specifically to help your unconscious mind create a new pattern of responding to these challenges. This will help you to let go of any negatively conditioned responses to speaking or performing and to create a new, more positive and resourceful attitude and feeling about speaking and performing on a deeper level. We know how valuable it is to be guided, supported, and inspired to create more resourceful states of mind, body, and spirit when you are feeling alone and afraid in facing this challenge. These exercises will help you to create feelings of deep relaxation and inner peace; a positive, confident state of mind; and a belief and trust in yourself and your ability to take on whatever speaking or performing challenges you face! PRODUCT DETAILSPublisher: Janet E. Esposito, M.S.W.Pub. Date: 30th June 2003 Catalog: Book Media: Audio CD Format: Abridged Ean: 9780974296616 Isbn: 0974296619 ABOUT THIS BOOKUSER REVIEWS
I found Janet and Diane's CD helped me to relax and put things in perpective before speaking publically. Both of them have soothing voices that are a pleasure to listen to. The CD doesn't tell you how to speak publically. The idea is to help you get calm and centered before speaking. I plan to use it everytime I have to speak. I think it would also make a great gift for anyone that gets nervous before speaking in public.
I would listen to this CD to sleep, not for my anxiety. The best thing for anxiety is Celexa and EMDR. I bought this CD with the book and it's terrible. It states the obvious and is not helpful at all. Sorry, but it sucks.
The CD starts with breathing exercises accompanied with a narration in a peaceful voice and with light music background. Then the CD goes to positive hypnosis and positive self-affirming prep talks and the last sections refer to techniques to refocus negative thought. It brings out self-awareness. The best part is that the CD offers solutions to face the fear and suggest riding with the fear like a wave instead of fighting it. I think it can be very helpful for psychologist, therapist and teachers who want to help others manage stress and boost up positive self-esteem of patients or students. It works equally well as a personal growth tool for oneself. The Spotlight CD got me relaxed and out of the bad mood. This is a powerful CD and is very good for stress management and for positive self -affirmation. After attending the Spotlight workshop, the CD is an encapsulation of the highlights of the skills learned in the book and at the workshop. The CD helps to create a calm and confident state of mind before performing
This CD along with the book is the ONLY thing available that addresses the actual fear of public speaking as opposed to tips on how to become a better speaker. You must address your fear first before you can improve your speaking skills. Janet Esposito is an expert on this subject as she suffered with that same fear herself. She is not just an author - she conducts actual affordable workshops on conquering your fears and is available as well to coach you one on one if needed. Read the book - take the workshop - use the CD and do it today! I listen to the CD every time I have an upcoming presentation or just if I am feeling anxious or doubtful. I downloaded it to my IPOD and even listen to it while I run. It absolutely changed my life!!!! Don't go another day without listening to this CD!
This CD is very well thought out and put together by someone who knows exactly what people that are reticent about performing or public speaking need to hear. The pep talk is great at helping you put things into perspective, great work Janet. Thanks! SIMILAR ITEMS:
