The 3 Second Brain Hack to Stay Calm Under Pressure


Listen Later

Stuck in a high-stakes meeting and feeling your brain freeze? Learn the scientifically proven, 3-second neuroscience hack to stop an "Amygdala Hijack" and regain instant control of your executive presence.

Most people tell you to "just calm down," but in this video, we explore why that is neurologically impossible. I’m sharing landmark research from UCLA on "Affect Labeling"—a technique that allows you to shift from emotional reaction to charismatic action in seconds. Whether you’re a leader, a negotiator, or a Social Architect, this tool is your secret weapon for owning any room.


🔍 Key Takeaways:

The Science of Choking: Why your prefrontal cortex goes offline when you’re stressed.

The Amygdala Hijack: Understanding your brain’s "smoke detector."

Affect Labeling: The 2007 UCLA study that changed emotional regulation forever.

The 3-Second Technique: How to "Name it to Tame it" without saying a word out loud.
