I've got a really good bit of magic to help with nerves - after all your logic and reason isn't going to work on your subconscious or you wouldn't be scared in the first place, so magic does.

Sit somewhere quiet and comfortable,close your eyes and relax. Become aware of yur body starting with your feet and working upwards until you feel calm and relaxed.

Now think of a time when you felt happy, fulfilled and on top of the world. A time when everything was going right for you. Try to recreate the scene in your mind as vividly as you can. hat the weather was like, the smells the sounds. When you have got the feeling as strongly as you can, gently touch your thumb and middle finger on the hand you use less together.

Without opening your eyes, again try to recreate that feeling as intensely as possible and then touch your thumb and finger together, then do it a third time and slowly open your eyes.

Now try touching your thumb and finger together. You might get a little buzz. If it doesn't happen first time, don't worry. Try again over the next few days and then just as you get up to sing, touch that finger and thumb.
