Hello my name is Carmen Payne, and I am the owner and creator of SOAR!
Transformational Life Coaching, and welcome to this episode of "Carmen's
Coaching Corner." Today's episode I'm going to focus on how to instantly boost
your confidence, your self-confidence. So say for example that you have a job
interview, a sales meeting, or customer meeting, or a networking event that you
you're attending ,and you're just not feeling very confident about the whole
thing, and you're kind of stressed about it because you feel like you may be
judged, or evaluated during during that experience. So this technique was
researched by Amy Cuddy who's a social psychologist and I've also included the
link to her video with in the comments with this episode. So what she found is
if you adopt a power pose for just two minutes, it will decrease your cortisol
which is your stress hormone, and increase your testosterone which is your
dominance hormone and make you go into that situation far less stressed, and a lot
more confident, and be much more calm, and collected about the whole thing, and
really show up as the best version of you. So this very simple technique is
basically to stand for two minutes in a power pose, or sit in a power pose. Now if
you're sitting you can adopt this power pose, basically your arms, behind you your
hands behind your head for two minutes, or you can adopt the superhero pose, or I
like to call the Wonder Woman pose for two minutes, and just standing for two
minutes in this pose actually helps to reduce both reduce your cortisol and
increase your testosterone testosterone, and what I also like to add to this pose
is the mantra, "I have value, and I am valuable", and so what I do is I stand in
a private place, or if I'm in my car I'll sit in my car
right in a in a quiet place, and just for two minutes adopt a power pose and say, "I
have value, I am valuable. I have value, I am valuable." Actually just
did this I recent seminar that I went to. There was very many like leaders of the
community here in Phoenix, and the state of Arizona and I was feeling a little
intimidated, and a little stressed about it. And so what I did was I
went into the bathrooms, I adopted the power pose for two minutes, and I said
the mantra, "I have value, and I am valuable" and as I left that bathroom I
felt so much more confident, I showed up in a totally different way whereas
before I was keeping myself small and kind of shrinking away, and not really
socializing with anybody which is completely what not to do at a
networking event, and I can't tell you what who I, you know, how many people I
attracted to me who wanted to come and talk to me because I literally had
showed up completely differently as to how I had arrived. So try this process,
it's literally just two minutes on the spot self-confidence boost with the
mantra, "I have value, I am valuable". Okay? So just two minutes of your time
completely change the way you show up, and maybe land that interview,
that sale, gain that customer right, any situation like that. So give this process
a go. Let me know how it worked out for you. If you have another tip on this
self confidence boosting technique that you could like to share
please add that to the comments at the bottom of this video, and as in as always
in love and light to your transformation Carmen. To get started please call, or
