Somatic brain · Physical Discomfort & Depletion as Leverage
Motion, Balance & Disorientation
Walking meetings and smooth transport change mood and can favour agreement, but 'smooth movement makes thinking flow' is metaphor; disorientation from travel and unfamiliar spaces is the real effect.
An everyday example
A pitch delivered during a car ride to the airport, or a contract review in a moving vehicle.
What it can cost you
Deciding while mildly disoriented or while the setting makes stopping awkward.
Warning signs
- I agreed in a car, a lift or a corridor.
- I could not easily end the conversation.
