Power Pose

”Life hack" in which you stand in a posture that you mentally associate with being powerful, to make you behave and feel assertive.

When to use Power Pose?

A great technique I teach my clients before they have to perform (public talk, interview..) or if they lack self-confidence.

How to use it?

2 minutes in high power pose makes your testosterone rise significantly and cortisol drop significantly. 2 minutes in the low power pose does the opposite. And this study was done in a room alone (no impact from other’s feedbacks).

A study shows that doing a power pose before you go into a room does change your performance. Before you go to an interview, if you look at your phone, you make yourself small instead of focusing on powerful poses and mindset.
