3 Easy Ways to be more confident when around other people:
1) Change your language 🧑🎤
The language that we use to talk to ourselves can impact our confidence. The words we use such as " I can't do this" or "Everybody is judging me" may cause us to doubt ourselves when surrounded by others. Instead, a more positive thought pattern can significantly change how we feel. For example, phrases such as " I can do this" or
" Noone is even noticing me" can improve confidence about being around others.
Take note of your private language - are you being kind to yourself?
2) Body Posture - Mind/Body connection 🚶♀️🧠
How we stand or sit can have an effect on how confident we feel.
When in public, a fear of others or low self-confidence can cause a slumped posture to appear small as a protective measure.
However, standing tall with our head held high will promote a feeling of confidence, increase a positive mood and reduces the focus on oneself.
Practice at home and try when around others, you might be surprised!
3) Get out and about ☕️🚴🎳
Start to go out more and do things that you enjoy. Participating in a favorite hobby or sport will encourage a focus on other things, not the feelings of fear or anxiety,
Remember to stand tall and be kind to yourself. You are worthy of happiness and confidence no matter where you are or what you are doing.
I hoped this has helped if you suffer from social anxiety. Please let me know in the comments. 🌹
