When I'm about to sing in front of people, my body feels...

Stuck or frozen, like I’ve gone numb or have disconnected from my body

Jittery, wired, restless, like I want to escape or fast-forward through the whole thing

Tense and braced, like I’m “holding it together” or ready for battle

When I sing in front of others, my voice is...

Small and hidden away, like I can't project and it's locked inside

Breathless or shaky, like I can't catch up with myself

Tight or forced - like I’m pushing or trying too hard

In a performance my energy is...

Zoned out or like a deer in headlights - I feel disconnected or like I’m watching myself from the outside

Over-revved and panicky - everything feels sped up and I can’t seem to slow down

Intense and under pressure - I’m gripping the performance too tightly, like I’m fighting to “nail it”

My mind is saying...

“I can’t feel or control anything… I don’t even know what I’m doing up here.”

"I'm too shaky and I'm going to screw this up. I wish it would hurry up and be over."

"You'd better make this impressive. You have to prove yourself. Try harder!"

Right before a performance I tend to...

Isolate myself, shrink or hunch over, stare into space, shut down

Ruminate on "what if's", pace, struggle to be still

Feel agitated, try to control for every detail, over-function

When I look at the audience...

I want to disappear or hide, eye contact feels terrifying

I’m constantly scanning for danger or disapproval

I feel defensive or desperate, like I have to “win them over”
