Body over mind

The concept of using positive thinking to feel better physically has been discussed for some time. But what about consciously managing your body language to help you think positively?

Right now, as you’re reading this – just take a nice slow breath and notice how you are sitting or standing and how that reflects how you are feeling. How is your posture in this moment? Are you tall or small? Are you smiling or frowning? Is your body closed or opened? These are questions that we so rarely consider during our busy days and yet body position, posture and facial expressions all have a tangible impact on how we feel.
