The Seeing Lab is a course to learn how to detect and read micro-expressions, small contractions of the
facial muscles that last only tenths of a second, but give a window into what someone is feeling.
Ever talk with someone & get the feeling that there’s something more they want to say? Maybe they said
they were happy, but you noticed a tint of sadness. Or maybe they said were mad, and you noticed a hint of
happiness.
In this course we’ll use imaging software, the same kind used for training detectives and members of secret
services, to do a pretest of your people-reading abilities. 2.5 hours later, your post-test scores will show you
how much you’ve learned. Are you a natural at reading expressions? In this course you’ll find out.
Results:
By learning how to notice and read facial & body micro-expressions, you’ll become more compassionate,
aware & intuitive. You will notice the beauty of mixed emotions and feel a big boost in your ability to cut
through the clutter to figure out what truly matters to your conversation partner.
