Every emotion is in your head only, so that's not useful advise. The same argument could be made for virtually every form of social insecurity.
If I may ask -- you are the same registered user who made the initial comment. Why reply to yourself? Are you multiple people using the same account?
I'm the same username2 you are responding to, but not the OP. Some emotions are "in your head" in the sense of being due to chemical and hormonal imbalances which you have limited non-pharmacological control over. Others are "in your head" in the sense that it is just neural software you were born with, but can be rewritten. Embarrassment is the latter.
