The book, winning body language by Mark Bowden is really quite a piece.
I got some points on #presantation anxiety from there. I must say I am one nervous person when it comes to crowds. Four is not a crowd for me, two is! I mean my heart throbs, and if I was a sweating person beads of sweat would just be dropping down my face.
Did you know that when the body senses any form of anxiety it prepares itself for attack or against attack?

The next time you're watching someone give a speech look out for the following: hands down by the side, crunched stomach, hunched back, narrowed eyes, repetitive side to side movement. Look out for speakers who face the door or window (this is in preparation for exit if the crowd attacks) drooping hands below
the waist aid in movement, swinging hands facilitate motion.
The BIG DONT, "DROPPING YOUR HANDS"
you've probably seen them, those presenters who just stand still motionless, hands down. Standing still or frozen is a human way of playing dead, naturally the body takes the arms down position as resting and so will your audience. A low tone is just but a lullaby, note its not the bed time story that sends one to sleep but the voice tonality. Try it! When starting a new paragraph in a bed story, start with a rather medium brown then at the end lower your tone. Its like hypnosis, relaxing and very calm.
Next time we'll focus on #truthplane
