A dog's body language speaks volumes about their emotions, showing us how much can be conveyed through posture. Similarly, our own body positions can impact our emotional state.
Amy Cuddy, a Harvard Social Psychologist, revealed groundbreaking insights on how physical stance influences mental strength. [1]
Stand Strong and Feel Empowered
To tap into a sense of confidence and resilience, spend a few moments practicing a power pose. [1]

Your Inner Power Workout 💪
Using Power Poses for Inner Connection and Presence
- Think of the happiest moment from your life, in the last 5 years.
- Now feel it. Be there. Remember it. And relive it completely as if it were right now.
- Pay attention to the position of your body, your face, your energy. Is your mouth smiling? Are your shoulders relaxed and lowered? Is your chest opening and expanding? Is your chin slightly raised, as you bask in the glow of this moment? Does your whole body feel as if it can relax and open, into the sweetness and happiness that’s right now?
- No matter what that pose is for you... adopt it, enjoy it, and hold it for a couple of minutes?
- How do you feel? Let this moment guide you in power of this for you.
Effortless Yet Impactful
While I’m deeply committed to exploring profound healing practices, I also believe in the beauty of simple, effective techniques that can make a world of difference!
The next time you’re gearing up for a big moment, take a few seconds for a power pose. You’ll be amazed at how this small shift in body language can transform your emotional and energetic state!
