# Why You Feel Stage Fright

Brain Work Behind the Fear

Fear on stage comes from specific brain and body work that deal with stress when singing.

When you face a show, the brain’s fear center makes the body react, kicking off a big body response.

Hormone and Body Changes

When stressed, your body lets out fear juices like cortisol, hitting how well you can sing.

These changes show up as:

  • Fast heart
  • Short breaths
  • Stiff muscles, dry mouth
  • Sweaty, shaky voice

Mind and Body Together

This fight or run feeling is a mix of minds and bodies working together.

Knowing these bits helps make plans that work.

Fright shows in real body signs that you can fix with the right practice and steps.
