態度の磁場によって
Explanation:
「私の態度の磁場によってガラスさえビリビリ割れてしまいそうだった。」

多分この場合はとても険悪な態度を取った為に、周囲の雰囲気がピリピリして、ガラスだって割れそうだったという事だと思います。

ちょっとした自分の姿勢の具合で


Explanation:
"ちょっとした自分の姿勢の具合で、ガラスをこなごなにしてしまうのでないかと思った"

"force field" is "力場", and I thought that "力場" in "自分の姿勢の力場" could be paraphrased as "具合" here.

I think that this situation is talking about someone holding a very expensive glass vase or something, and person "I" felt that, by changing his posture, he might drop it.
