Course description
Finding Your Voice (Confidence, Public Speaking)
Highly effective 12-week course to overcome speaking nerves.
It is the only course of its kind that works to dissolve the psychological symptoms that cause so much stress: Rapid heartbeat, difficult breathing, panic attacks, sweating, blushing.
The course is different from many other public speaking and presentation courses in that it does not throw you up on a platform and teach you a series of techniques that you will quickly forget.
Instead, it builds your confidence from the inside through a series of powerful and transformational exercises that are designed to free you of inhibitions. This is something you will never forget.
It also addresses many other aspects of communication, and where you may feel blocked in your communication or inhibited in your self-expression.
It is also the first port of call for those who are overwhelmed with the whole experience of speaking to an audience - particularly if they've had negative experiences in the past.
It is based on Claire Schrader's experiences of being an introvert and what really worked in helping her express herself powerfully in the world.

Suitability - Who should attend?
- Do you struggle with any kind of public speaking or avoid situations where you are required to speak at a meeting or in a group?

It is different from most other public speaking courses in that it is designed explicitly for reserved and talented people who become so overwhelmed by their nerves that in some cases they are unable to function.
Outcome / Qualification etc.
At the end of the course, I guarantee you will find any kind of public speaking relatively easy and even enjoyable. Many people tell me that they do these events after the group without even thinking about it, and then are surprised to remember what they used to be like.
The Sunflower Effect Courses have worked for hundreds of gifted and reserved people, many of whom have been struggling to make changes for many years and report the group quicker and more effective than any other approaches they have tried. It has literally saved them thousands of pounds.
The course is limited to twelve people, and this means that you will build up a strong level of trust with a small group of people who are 100% in support of you making a significant breakthrough.
This makes the course a very safe place to explore any area where you are stuck. And you will also be able to work at an individual level. Then watch your life begin to transform in magical and unexpected ways.
