Now that you've mastered breathing, visualization, and vocal warm-ups, let's work on your physical presence. Today we're focusing on on-camera posture - your foundation for confident digital communication.
Poor posture instantly signals nervousness, while good alignment projects calm authority.

How do you usually hold your phone during video calls?
Let's start with your spine - your body's central support system. Imagine a string pulling gently from the crown of your head toward the ceiling.
This creates "neutral spine" - not rigidly straight, but naturally aligned with a slight curve in your lower back.

What changes do you notice when you lift your head instead of slouching?
Now address your shoulders. Most people carry tension here, especially when nervous. Let your shoulders naturally fall away from your ears.
Roll them back once, then let them settle in their relaxed position - not forced back, just released.

What happens to your breathing when you drop your shoulders?
Your head position is crucial for camera presence. Keep your chin parallel to the floor - not tilted up or down.
When you look slightly down at your phone, you appear less confident. When you look up, you seem arrogant.

Try both positions now - which feels more natural and confident?
Here's the game-changer: hold your phone at eye level instead of looking down at it. This might feel awkward at first, but it transforms your presence.
Your posture stays aligned, your voice projects better, and you maintain natural eye contact.
