Quick Tips: Stretch Before Meetings

Your lead & follow coaching tip for today is Stretch Before Meetings

Pre-meeting stretches, especially if you can stand up to do them, wake up your body so that you can connect more easily and more quickly to other people. Just 15 seconds is enough!

One the reasons the quick stretch works is that when you sit still for long periods of time, whole sections of your nervous system kind of go to sleep. Without your physical senses active, you’re actually less aware of your own body and your own emotional state, and having your body half asleep can make it harder to think. 

Try this out and let me know how it goes!
