Jedi mind trick

A mirror is when you repeat the last three words of what someone just said. We fear what's different and are drawn to what's similar as the saying goes birds of a feather flock together. Mirroring is most often associated with forms of nonverbal communication, especially body language in hostage negotiations. A mirror focuses on the words and nothing else, not the body language, not the accent, not the tone or delivery, just the words.
