Neuroscience Leadership Tip:
Regulate before you communicate.
When you take even 20–60 seconds to downshift your nervous system;
💜 slow exhale
💜 extended blink
💜 relaxing the jaw
You shift your brain from the amygdala (reactive) to the prefrontal cortex (strategic).
This one micro-regulation does three things:
- Increases clarity — you access higher-order thinking instead of emotional shortcuts.
- Improves presence — others feel your steadiness before you speak.
- Strengthens influence — people trust leaders whose nervous systems are coherent.
A regulated leader isn’t calmer — they’re more effective.
✨ How do you regulate your nervous system when under high pressure or stress?
