have begun taking beta blockers,
drugs developed to control high
blood pressure and other heart
symptoms.
Dr. Nagel believes that taking
these drugs to establish a calm,
controlled feeling ultimately can
result in more anxiety because
they interfere with getting to the
heart of the real problems.
"I feel it's dangerous to give
general advice because being on
stage or giving a performance
means something different to
each person," she said. "I do want
people to be informed so they can
think about their own situations
with more depth."
As part of her workshops, Dr.
Nagel describes the following self-
help techniques sometimes ben-
eficial in relieving tension
brought on by occasional presen-
tations:
• Realizing that it is not nec-
essary to be perfect and under-
standing that a person is not a
failure if everything does not go
exactly as planned.
• Replacing negative messages
— 'What if I make a mistake?"
or "What if the audience doesn't
like me?" — with positive state-
ments — "I'm prepared, and I
know what I'm doing."
• Trying relaxation exercises
by tensing the major muscle
groups one by one and then re-
laxing them. For instance, an in-
dividual can start by making a
fist and then letting go.
• Finding a relevant book by
an author whose recommenda-
tions relate well to the person
feeling the anxiety. Some authors
focus on diet, while others sug-
gest exercise.
"The people who come to see
me are the ones who have not
been helped with these methods,"
Dr. Nagel said. ❑
