Caffeine in coffee, soda pop and chocolate makes many people feel panicky when they are already stressed.

The stressed body secrets adrenaline and the stress hormones cortisol and epinephrine; your heart beats faster, your eye’s pupils dilate and your muscles contract.

Physical Preparation:

Warm up and relax your body and face.

If you're wearing high heels, take them off. Now, stand on one leg and shake the other. When you put your foot back on the ground, it's going to feel lighter than the other one. Now, switch legs and shake. You want your energy to go through the floor and out of your head. This sounds quite cosmic; it isn't. It's a practical technique used by actors.

Shake your hands...fast. Hold them above your head, bending at the wrist and elbow and then bring your hands back down. This will make your hand movements more natural.

Warm up your face muscles by chewing in a highly exaggerated way. Do shoulder and neck rolls. Imagine that you're eye level with a clock. As you look at 12, pull as much of your face up to 12 as you can; now move it to 3, then down to 6 and finally over to 9.

All of these exercises serve to warm you up and relax you. Those exaggerated movements make Recognize these symptoms early and counteract them by disputing the thinking that is causing them and using stress reduction physical and mental techniques.

While planning your speech, see if going to bed ? hour earlier the week before has a positive effect on you coping with stress. Catching up on rest over the weekend is not the same as getting adequate sleep each night. It is hard to cope when you are running on empty. Add more vegetables, fruits, Snacking all day long isn’t helpful. Stick to three meals a day, with an apple or pre-measured cheese and crackers between meals to stabilize your blood sugar. Even little changes will have a positive effect. Sugary snacks and caffeine drinks give a short term burst of energy but come with a quick deep drop. Don’t be lured by alcohol to soothe your stress -practice stress management techniques instead. When you are so drained of energy, why would it be a great idea to take a walk? Strangely, exercise counteracts fatigue. Movement, even for a few minutes a day, increases your energy.

When you are mentally drained, physical energy re-energizes your thinking. Walk around the block, take a walk with your child, and work your arms and legs while on the phone.

Your body releases beta-endorphins, the body’s natural relaxer when you exercise. These endorphins counteract stress hormones. Don’t feel you must do absurdly vigorous exercise to get this gain – 10 minutes of walking will start the process.

Frequently overlooked is using music to affect your moods. Music affects the energy of many people. Calm yourself down and invigorate yourself by purposely playing soothing and dynamic music.
