Want a quick 2-minute way to boost your mood and confidence?

It takes zero tech or meds.

It’s not even just using your mindset.

It’s using your body to influence your mind, which then influences your beliefs and consequently leads to more positive outcomes.

The way we communicate is vital and 65% of our communication is non-verbal (ie. our body language). We focus a lot on how we communicate with others but sometimes don’t focus on how we communicate with ourselves, but that matters because it affects our mood and how we
PERFORM.

So, it’s time to address that and use our body to tell our mind that we are strong and capable and to feel more positive and happy.

Simply engage in a power pose for 2 minutes. The ‘wonder woman’ pose is the best known (any Grey’s Anatomy fans will be familiar with this too) but any high power pose is good.

Hold it for 2 minutes and reap the benefits.

… and here’s the science… holding this pose for 2 minutes has been shown to raise your Testosterone level by 20% (meaning more power and confidence), reduce your Cortisol level by 25% (meaning stress reduction and boosted mood) and increases your risk tolerance by 33% (making you more likely to ‘go for it’ and perform at your best).

A reduction in Cortisol has a real impact on our mood, boosting it but so does a rise in Testosterone. FYI, a rise in Testosterone (in men and women) not only improves mood, it can also give you:

✅a rise to your sex drive
✅ stronger bones
✅ less fat and more muscle
✅ a healthier heart and blood
✅ better verbal memory and potential reduction in incidence of Alzheimer’s disease.

This simple, quick and easy change in your physiology actually changes you bio-chemistry.

So, if you have a performance, exam, job interview, big event or just need that boost in mood or confidence, give it a try and let me know you feel and how it boosts your performance.
