What are the most effective mindful speaking techniques for presentations?

Being Prepared is the 1st thing which needs to be done to avoid and fall into the TRAP of being a NARCISST personality: "I know everything" is the biggest "TRAP." Every day is a NEW day, we never know which day may bring what, hence keep practicing of being prepared every time & EVERYDAY (just like SUN), so the BIGGEST HACK is: #1: ALWAYS take 5 seconds break if you think your ACTIONS might create a RIPPLE effect (i am sure you all are mindful enough to assess the situations, don't take this BREAK while Driving, take it while starting & stopping your vehicle {journey}) if you ARE MINDFUL of the TIME, you will always be going ahead: #2 STAY in PRESENT #3 follow for more: Best Wishes Avinash Sharma

It's true. Unless a person is prepared, they lack the kind of confidence that they would earn (and keep) by being prepared. The most important part of preparation is knowing what they want to say and having it mapped out clearly in their mind

You want to be VERY specific about what you focus on. You definetly don't want to focus on your sensations. You want to turn them off. You want to stay focused on the message and engaging with the audience. When I prepared for my TEDx talk, I could feel my confidence increasing with each practice session I did. The more I practiced, the more automatic the words flowed. That allowed me to use my emotional energy to connect with the audience. If you know your content inside out, you may miss a word but you will still be able to deliver your message.

ONE thing which i have always found useful throughout my LIFE or whatever I am doing in my LIFE at present as well, that FOCUS on PRESENT, just like "how" I am writing this content, it's all about living and embracing the PRESENT moment first and analyzing (don't forget to focus on SELF care)

Connecting with the audience begins long before you stand in frolnt of them. You must know what their needs and wants are so that you can meet and exceed their expectations. Once you're on stage, you want to look at them as if they are your friend and talk to one or two people for a statement or two and then move to another. When I speak, I catch the eye of someone who is attentive and I focus on them for a few moments. I find a person in each section of the audience and speak to them. When you speak to a person, they feel it. When you speak to many people, they too feel it and you keep them engaged.

in my experience, without connecting with your audience and considering yourself a LEADER is the biggest roadblock which comes in the path of many leaders which I have seen personally throughout this journey. Being Mindful about what people expect from you is the FIRST thing which every LEADER should think of, but the sad part is, connecting today is more about generating leads rather building meaningful connections! But I am sure people like you would connect with HUMAN vibrations who has the right intention to GROW & let other's GROW

When we know our topic inside out and we have prepeared, even if we have difficulties, we are able to improvise and still share the message. It also helps to have another format that you can slip into should your equipment fail you. These are things you want to plan in advance. And typically, people experience technical difficulties. That's why you want to go to the site a week earlier or a few days earlier and do a dry run with the equipment. Also, makes ure to get the password and test it before you begin if you need to access the internet

ADAPTATION is the BINDING factor what you going to do or say or write, and the more you PRACTICE the more you would ADAPT Keep taking consistent "ACTIONS" - biggest hack of ADAPTATION!

No one gets GREAT without practice. Expect to be proud of yourself for just getting up and speaking since speaking is a fear many people have. I always use self-talk and self-hypnosis and practice in my mind before the event. Afterwards, I compare the facts with my vision. There's always room to improve and you will discover the areas that need attention by filming yourself- even just phone recording. But video reveals so much more. I remember asking Dr Oz a few questions in a meeting in front of a large audience. When I'm excited, I speak with my hands, (dramatically). The video showed me how aggressive I looked as I pointed at him. I did't feeling angry or aggressive, but the gesture LOOKED angry.That awareness helped me avoid pointing!
