Our brains and bodies are wired together, and we are learning more and more about how powerful those connections are. For instance, did you know that if you smile, you are very likely to feel happy? It’s true!

Here’s a link to an interesting list of body postures that influence productivity and/or emotions. Give them a try, and see what you think.

I’m especially intrigued by “Mimic to Empathize”, “Imitate to Comprehend”, and “Tense Up for Willpower”.  Which ones do you like?   Feel free to comment below.
