LESSON 3 · Recover When You Lose Them
Movement Resets Everything
Physical movement — yours and theirs — is the fastest state-change tool you have. Try these escalating moves:
- Move yourself — walk to a different part of the room. Eyes track movement automatically.
- Change the visual — switch from slides to a whiteboard, or turn the slides off.
- Stand them up — "Turn to your neighbor and discuss this for 60 seconds."
- Rearrange — "Everyone move to a seat closer to the front."
Each level takes more nerve from the speaker but lands a stronger reset. Even corporate audiences respond, because sitting still for long stretches is physically uncomfortable.
