Have you ever felt flustered because your hands started shaking uncontrollably at a crucial moment? That sensation of the anxiety you tried so hard to ignore throughout your presentation prep suddenly announcing itself from your fingertips can be truly frustrating. Many people wish to put an end to this experience of emotional trembling spilling over into the body.

Does your heart pound and do cold sweats break out whenever you give a presentation? Have you ever suffered indigestion because you felt people watching you while you ate lunch? Have you found yourself repeatedly avoiding social plans and keeping your head down even on the subway due to this anxiety? For anyone going through such a difficult time, I hope this column offers you warm comfort.

Do you have a presentation next week and your heart is already pounding while your hands start to sweat? Do you find your mind going blank before important gatherings or meeting strangers, losing sleep over worrying about what you should say?

Did your steps feel heavy on the way to a gathering today, or did your heart sink at the thought of giving a presentation? If others' gazes feel sharp and you constantly want to hide for fear of making a mistake, this might not simply be a matter of having an introverted personality.
