You are about to give a presentation to a large group and you feel significant anxiety. What do you actually do?
Reframe it — remind yourself that the physical sensations of anxiety and excitement are nearly identical, and choose excitement
Suppress it — bring your face and body to neutral and push the feeling down
Avoid it — you feel it fully and it does not go down easily; you stay anxious throughout
Distract — focus entirely on preparation tasks so there is no mental space for the anxiety
