Amy Cuddy is a social psychologist that explains how practicing power poses changes our body chemistry and ultimately the way we feel and act. By practicing these poses for a few days, we make it a habit and our body will notice the effects for the rest of the day. I must say, practicing this technique for little over a week, my confidence went up a pip( sorry it didn't soar). I like to use this technique before any major event where I'm under scrutiny. Think meetings with bosses, phone calls, and interviews.
I personally like the victory pose. Bonus points if you yell out "Yes!" while maintaining the position.
Watch the video, see what she has to say. Try it out!
