Reading Body Language
What Can You Learn?
Often a person has no idea that he is giving out nonverbal cues or making nonverbal gestures. Body language signs, for the most part, are subconscious. Our minds simply take thoughts and make them into actions or body gestures or positions. So, what are some of the things you can learn? - Facial expressions - Is the person smiling, or frowning? Does his expression change?
- Hands - Where are his hands? Are the palms up or down? Held loosely or in a tight fist? Where does he put his hands?
- Legs - Are they crossed, slightly apart, moving or still?
- Voice - What is his tone of voice, how loud does he speak, etc.?
- Eyes - Where does he look when he speaks to you? Are you getting eye contact?
The answers to these questions, and many others, give clues to another person’s thoughts, attitudes, feelings and actions. And it is possible to learn
