Step 6 in Becoming a Better Public Speaker

Breathe and Hydrate
This sounds like a no-brainer, but when we’re nervous our muscles tighten up and we hold our breath. Take a few deep breaths and get the oxygen back to your brain so you can gradually relax your body. You can also practice taking quick short breaths if that works better.
Hydration is also key. Dry mouth can occur when the glands in the mouth are not working to produce enough saliva. Nervousness and stress are common triggers.

Water lubricates your joints and delivers important nutrients to your cells that keep you healthy and allow you to deliver with ENERGY.
