I stopped everything 2h before interview to get myself in « the zone »
I walked outside and did some gratefulness and visualization exercices and then danced at home. Worked for me!
Good luck

Thanks all. I actually was not expecting that advice. I've typically gotten the hype yourself up, talk to yourself in the mirror type advice in the past. My only concern would be that I'd get out of a solid mindset and be spacey if I did too much relaxation right before, but maybe I'll try that this one time and report back. Knew I should post on here. Thanks MC1 for the good vibes
