One way of holding the arms that feels very powerful: place your arms behind you, holding the back of one hand with the other palm (picture a high-ranking military man walking around, inspecting his troops). This highly exposes your vulnerable spots: chest, stomach, and neck, thus showing that you feel safe and unthreatened.

Another one is both hands on the hips, forming two triangles: This makes you bigger, takes up more space, and exposes you, which implies you are confident in the situation and you know your position, so to speak. A variant is, again, hands on hips or partly tucked in pockets or belt, with the fingers or thumbs pointing down to the crotch area (a very sensitive area to draw attention to).

If you do try these, you'll find they will really influence your thinking, and other people will unconsciously come to expect powerful and confident behavior from you, so don't be surprised by that.
Hey JJP, these are wonderful suggestions to stand in a authoritative and powerful positions, according to how body language is being interpretated, like what you have explained.

But maybe what Erki's looking for would be one that's more "normal" in a day-to-day life? The power ones just look too, power when not in command?

Just my thoughts. I'm not an expert!

Oh thanks Erki for your confirmation

Yeah, it would be much easier to read it off your profile than a long list of posts, plus some deciphering, comprehending, analysing before guessing and concluding and finally confirming now.. haha
