Sneezes come out of our body at 10 – 30 MPH for all of us – amazing, right? Who is the loudest “sneezer” you know? Studies show that big personalities have much bigger sneezes that can frighten small children! Unfortunately, huge and loud sneezes can, also, negatively impact your perception.

Fully suppressing the sneeze can put massive pressure on your heart – not good. It is better to mildly suppress your sneeze graciously into your arm to best manage this involuntary event. It avoids the spread of germs, avoids scaring small children, and improves your executive presence.
