A racing heart, sweaty palms, and a mind that suddenly goes blank are all classic signs of performance anxiety. Instead of imagining things going wrong, take a few quiet moments to picture the performance going exactly as you want. Learning how to overcome performance anxiety often means creating a complete pre-show routine that takes care of both your mind and body. This reflection can help you wrap up the performance, allowing you to rest and recover properly before your next one. Managing performance anxiety is a personal journey, and what works for one artist might not work for another.
