1
This whole aspect of the lungs and how they're built
2
and how they have a whole architecture of receiving and really dealing with what comes their way,
3
this is a part I think of achievement we sometimes do not notice or do not have in our mind.
4
What I think of now sometimes, what I didn't understand back then was an advice my grandma often gave me.
5
She said when I was being very eager, going like to get something, you know, but tense maybe she would say a dolce dolce mousie, which was like soft, soft.
6
And back then I always thought it's like this relax, you know, and when you're kind of like tensed up, that's not a great advice to get, because you usually don't relax then.
7
But when I read about the lungs, I realized I think she meant something entirely different.
8
It was that, you know, life can be hard, challenges can be tough.
9
And if we just tense up and reaction towards that, energy doesn't suffice.
10
We really need sometimes to use softness to go all the way all the way
11
and now when I have a very stressful day earlier I would have clenched up
12
and put my muscles into like attack mode
13
and my jaw would maybe get a bit tense too
14
but nowadays in between like meetings or something I would go really soft
15
and just really relax and then I realize oh this is a way
16
that really makes my energy work for me
17
and this is how I can go through a long hectic day way better than just tensing up
18
so softness is actually a really important counterpart in, you know, going the extra mile, getting the things you want, softening up in between.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
