1
Everyone has different degrees of facial control.
2
So I have a pretty high degree of facial control just simply because I've activated those muscles for a long time.
3
I learned microexpressions, I believe, in 2010.
4
And so I've been practicing activating my facial muscles.
5
So the first thing to do is sit in front of the mirror, and this is a good exercise for everyone,
6
and look at your face at rest.
7
What is your face doing?
8
Do your corners of your mouth point downwards?
9
That means you're probably at rest going to look sad, right?
10
because we have
11
that upside down you are they neutral great neutral are you
12
lucky enough to have your corners of your lips angled up people probably think
13
that you're always positive or peppy
14
so that's the first thing to look at second do you have any vertical lines between your eyebrows
15
that means that people probably will see you as angry even
16
if you're not so those are the two really big ones
17
that you want to see at rest
18
when you're at rest look at the other micro expressions are you using any other facial activation
19
so for example i have a friend who always defaults to the disgust micro expression.
20
I've talked about him before.
21
He tends to think like this.
22
So he always looks disgusted even if he's not.
23
That's just his default expression.
24
So look at your face at rest.
25
That's the very first thing to do.
26
Then see if you can activate your muscles to counter it.
27
Some people can, some people can't.
28
So if you can make your mouth more upturned and that feels natural to you, great.
29
You might want to do that only when you're in public settings where you want people to socialize with you.
30
It would be exhausting to do that all the time.
31
But if you're networking or you're, you know, in the break room and you want people to approach you, then you might want to activate that.
32
Like, so for example, I think I shared this a couple of years ago, I was on a podcast and they were like,
33
Oh, can we turn on the video?
34
That was an audio only podcast, but I was like, Oh sure.
35
You know, he's like, I love to see you while we talk, even though it's only the audio.
36
I was like, no problem.
37
I turned on the video and it was, I regret it so much because I was so focused on the audio.
38
I was letting my face be neutral.
39
Well, my face neutral looks sad.
40
And so after, you know, during the interview, he was like, you know, I know people can't see you right now, but you look really bored.
41
And I was like, I am not bored, sir.
42
I am just listening very intently to you
43
and not thinking about my face because I was putting all of my energy into the verbal answers.
44
And it was that moment that I was like, wow, when the stakes matter in an interview,
45
socializing, it is worth it if you can to put energy into shaping your face into neutral or positive.
46
So can you slightly upturn your mouth?
47
Can you relax your eyebrows?
48
I need to open my eyes a little bit wider.
49
I have very large lids.
50
I've been told this by makeup artists.
51
And so when I'm at rest, I look a little more hooded.
52
That's why he thought I looked bored is I was, that's just how I rest.
53
So see if you can activate those, see if it's comfortable for you.
54
And then it's a muscle.
55
So literally work on those one at of time.
56
See if you can just build those muscles up so that when you're in a public setting or a situation with stakes,
57
you're able to turn those on.
58
It is a muscle thing.
59
So it's just like biceps or triceps.
60
You sometimes work it out a little bit before it works.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
