1
If you are in a room and someone gives you a cue of social rejection.
2
What does that look like?
3
Okay, so social rejection, eye roll, a sigh.
4
Looking away.
5
Right, looking away, distancing behavior when we pull our head back and like, when I angle my head back, you know I've just disengaged from you.
6
Crossing arms.
7
Crossing arms.
8
It's just sudden non-verbal rejection.
9
Okay, so social rejection cues, and you know this, if you're in a business meeting and you suddenly feel like, am I disliked?
10
He's not, he doesn't like this, she doesn't like this.
11
When we see a cue of social rejection, our field of vision increases.
12
We see wider.
13
We literally see wider.
14
Our pupils dilate so we see more.
15
The reason why that study was like a light bulb for me was our cues are affecting others' physiology.
16
Our physiology can change in a room in an instant.
17
If we walk into a meeting and we feel not liked, if we feel rejected, if we feel like we're being judged, our own physiology responds.
18
So if we're in a room and we're not feeling confident or in control and someone sends us a cue of rejection, One, you want to know what those are because it makes your field of vision bigger.
19
So you can see who else is sending me a cue, what's my escape route.
20
That's literally what your body's trying to do.
21
Ups your adrenaline, ups your cortisol.
22
And no one can think well.
23
Adrenaline, cortisol.
24
That's why in a meeting, it can go downhill so quickly.
25
You're in a presentation, you prepare it all week.
26
You're like, yeah.
27
And then you're like, oh, he just rolled his eyes.
28
Oh, she just turned away.
29
Oh, I just saw a weird foot uh-huh, and then you lose your spot, you blank out and the rest of the presentation goes badly.
30
The good news is, is what Matthew Lieberman found, he's from UCLA, once you label a cue, so if you say that was an eye roll, that was a scoff of exasperation,
31
that was a contempt smirk, the moment you label it your amygdala calms down.
32
They've proven that if they, when people are in fMRI machines and they show them a fearful face, so fearful faces when we widen the whites of our eyes and we raise our eyebrows up.
33
If you're laying in an fMRI machine and you see fear, you will begin to feel afraid.
34
Your amygdala begins to activate and your body goes, well, he's afraid.
35
I better be afraid.
36
But the moment you say in the fMRI, that's just fear, your amygdala stops responding.
37
Interesting.
38
So I think I've had a really hard time finding confidence.
39
It's been a long lifetime journey.
40
The way that I've sort of backdoored into confidence is control.
41
If I can control the cues that are being sent to me, if I can control the cues I'm sending to others, it's a secret backdoor into confidence.
42
How do you control someone else's cues?
43
You label them and respond appropriately.
44
So you can't control how they act towards you, but you can control how you react to it, how you interpret it, how you transition afterwards?
45
Yes, like you can first by labeling it, you just controlled your own physiology.
46
So if someone sends you a contempt, an eye roll, you just, you took control back of, nope, I see it, I spot it, I'm disengaging it.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
