Amy Cuddy: Your body language shapes who you are

Title:
Amy Cuddy: Your body language shapes who you are
Description:

Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy shows how "power posing" -- standing in a posture of confidence, even when we don't feel confident -- can affect testosterone and cortisol levels in the brain, and might even have an impact on our chances for success.
