Editorial reviews

Lorraine Howell’s tutorial on public speaking is an "eyes closed" program, meaning that it takes a listener into a deep visualization exercise to prepare for speaking in public and one should focus on that exclusively. In this performance, noted media skills-trainer Howell explains why mental images work in priming everyone from athletes to executives to be their most relaxed, confident selves. She talks listeners through a full-body unwinding exercise, zeroing in on the breath and on different parts of the physique. Finally, the listener imagines him or herself successfully delivering a presentation. The mind is subtly manipulated into thinking the poised public speaking engagement is authentic, and the mental results play out in the real world.

Provides Good Tips

This is from 2009, so it’s a bit old. However, the speaker is great, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. She does provide nice tips to us. It’s definitely worth the listen.
