Practicing good posture can improve selfconfidence and perception by others from "summary" of The Definitive Book of Body Language by Barbara Pease,Allan Pease
Having good posture is a crucial element in how you present yourself to the world. It not only affects how you feel about yourself but also plays a significant role in how others perceive you. When you stand up straight with your shoulders back and your head held high, you exude confidence and self-assurance. This sends a powerful message to those around you that you are someone who is strong, capable, and in control. On the other hand, slouching or hunching over can give off the impression that you lack confidence or are unsure of yourself. This can lead others to view you in a less favorable light and may even affect how they interact with you. People are naturally drawn to those who appear confident and self-assured, so by practicing good posture, you are more likely to make a positive impression on others. Moreover, good posture can also have a direct impact on how you feel about yourself. Research has shown that standing up straight can boost your mood, increase energy levels, and even reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. By carrying yourself with confidence, you are not only influencing how others perceive you but also how you perceive yourself. This positive self-image can further enhance your self-confidence and overall sense of well-being.- Practicing good posture is a simple yet powerful way to improve both your self-confidence and how others see you. By making a conscious effort to stand tall and project confidence, you can create a more positive image of yourself and make a lasting impression on those around you. So remember, the next time you find yourself slouching, straighten up and notice the difference it can make in how you feel and how others perceive you.
