Mirror
Pairs mirror each other's movements — silently and in sync.
Builds non-verbal attunement and genuine attention to another person — hard to fake.
Instructions
Face each other. One leads with slow continuous movement — the other mirrors exactly. No speaking. After 2 minutes, switch leader without stopping. Then try 1 minute with no designated leader — the movement must emerge between you.
