She is the founder of Love Silence, a company that organizes events to bring meditation to both individuals and companies. Her book “The Inner Peace Formula” Originally titled “A Rebel’s Guide to Inner Peace,” and just relaunched, it presents 3 steps you can take into your daily life to increase your compassion, good feelings and positivity. Being positive as a speaker Being positive is all about your mindset. It’s a choice. As a speaker, even before you open your mouth, your audience will notice how you feel. People will be open only if you are feeling good and positive. Otherwise, your will lose them. All famous and successful speakers are positive and charismatic. What if you are in a bad mood the day you must speak in public? Mahima’s recommendation is: be authentic, be yourself, and don’t try to mask your feelings. Lean into positivity Stop focusing on the negative things happening. Instead, be conscious of the small positive things that happen around you. Then, expand this moment and amplify this good feeling. Talk about positive things: “You know what?, on my way to work I saw a guy dancing on the tram and it put a big smile on my face.” Related: Grow your courage Favorite quotation “Play to your strengths and outsource your weaknesses.” Recommended book Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts Routine to Shine The way you start your day and end your day are key to being positive and to shine. Incorporate some morning ritual before doing anything else: a breathing exercise, meditation or yoga. And, end the day with gratitude. Links Mahima at Facebook Love Silence P.S.
