Farrah Storr: Reframe your emotions

Farrah Storr prepares by doing some stretching and deep breathing before stepping out in front of an audience. ‘But I also tell myself that I feel challenged and excited, not scared. That’s essential because most people, myself included, get the pounding head, the fluttering heart, the clammy hands, before they go onstage. How you interpret these feelings is crucial to how you will perform, however. Tell yourself you’re scared and you can become overwhelmed quite easily. But tell yourself you feel excited – after all, excitement and fear manifest in similar ways in the body – and something remarkable happens. You breathe more easily, blood pumps round your body more freely, oxygen gets to the brain quicker, meaning you think sharper and smarter. It’s been a total game changer for me.’
