Body and Mind

The broader lesson goes beyond the power-pose debate. Body and mind influence each other in small ways: breathing can settle arousal, posture can support voice, and facial expression can nudge mood. Treat these as modest tools, not guaranteed transformations.

Practice posture as part of delivery: feet grounded, shoulders relaxed, spine long, chin level. The goal is not dominance; it is making the body stop interfering with the message.
