How To Develop Poise

Dress Your Best

Dress your best to always give yourself confidence that you already look great. There is a pyschological effect that takes place. Your body responds to your thoughts and projects how you feel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Exercise For Poise and Posture

I've noticed that people who exercise regularly do not seem to have problems of attaining good posture. With good posture, half the battle is won to achieve an elegant poise. 

 

*attain good posture 達到良好的姿勢

 

 

 

 

 

 

Keep Your Arms To Your Sides

Another tip of how to develop poise is to keep your arms close to your sides as much as you can, in a relaxed way. When I took posture lessons, my instructor told us to constrict movements from your elbows as much as possible. Obviously don't stick your arms like glue to your slides. If your shoulders are hunched upwards, that's too close.

 

*hunched 弓著身子的、縮成一團的

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never Ever Rush Or Be In A Hurry

To be poised to never seem like you're in a hurry, no matter what calls for it. Never walk too quickly, strut making loud sounds of your heels clicking against the boardwalk. Do not eat in a hurry, no matter how hungry or zip up your purse in a fast way. Be as quiet as possible and unhurried. 

Obviously, this is harder than it looks especially in the fast paced society that we live in. If you find yourself hurrying everywhere, it is either due to poor time management or you could be simply doing too much. Slow down, elegance is afterall, a way of life.

 

*zip up 拉上...的拉鍊

 

 

 

 

Be Gentle

There is a certain kind of chic gentleness in being poised. Gentle and elegant gustures increases our beauty. Clothes are not the only 'covering' we wear.

It is much easier to be gentle when you are kind and tender. Gentle is an all emcompassing word. If you're gentle to little animals, you'll be gentle towards someone's feelings. You'll also probably not slam things around.

 

*chic a.瀟灑的 別緻的 時髦的    emcompassing v.圍繞 包圍

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Smile Much, Laugh Softly

Similarly as gentleness is concurrent with devloping poise, being poised means having a gentle smile (ready and often) as well as soft harmonious laughter. Knee-slapping, hand-clapping, back slapping or laughter with mouth wide open does not contribute to poise. Laughing very loudly especially in a restaurant is not acceptable as well.

 

*concurrent  n.同時發生的狀況    harmonious  a.友善的 和睦的

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Watch Your Hands - Do Not Touch Or Fidget

Some of us have problems keeping our hands to ourselves. The problem of fidgety hands and wanting to touch everything, do something with our hands could be attributed to the problem of being 'unable to relax'. If you want to develop poise, train yourself to keep them relaxed and do yourself.

Don't be digging into your purse, looking at your iphone every 30 seconds, touching your face, hair. It is good to practice restraint

 

*fidgety  a.不安的 為小事操心的     restraint  n.抑制 克制

 

 

 

 

 

Have A Deep Respect Of Others and Things Around You

I've observed that women with elegant poise seem to have a deep respect of others and things around them. For instance, they tend to leave a place the way it was when they entered. They are not ones to touch things in another person's house. If they borrowed something, it would be in the exact condition (or better sometimes) when they received it.
