'Snake Energy' is our ability to react to
dangerous or threatening situations with lightening fast, instinctive moves
that are designed to throw off the enemy, change the situation and restore a
balance of power.
We are probably born with this survival skill
but early 'intervention' and training in 'civilized behavior' tends to short
circuit this important facet of our behavioral spectrum.
An opportunity to
experiment with some fun
ideas...
3 EASY STEPS TO RE-OWN YOUR ABILITY TO REACT INSTINCTIVELY:
(Remember this is
not about permission to be inappropriate - just the opposite!)
1) Remove caveats and restrictions and old rules
of engagement.
Sometimes it is not appropriate to be 'nice'!
2) Practice!
Think about past situations where you walked away feeling bad, put down,
frightened.
Would 'snake energy' have
been appropriate?
Re-write the scenarios
using this instinctive, often counter intuitive, approach.
3) Allow your creativity free reign.
Sometimes a smile when people are expecting
you to cringe can be incredibly powerful.
A whisper can often be heard much louder than a shout.
