Introduction
Welcome to How to Read Body Language . In this book, we are going to look at how we can use body language as a means of communication in order to convey the meaning that we truly want to transmit to others.
Reading and utilizing body language are two of the most important skills anyone can learn in order to function in the real world. In fact, body language is so important that it plays a significant role in our lives without us even realizing it. The reason for this is that much of our body language is subconscious.
By the same token, many of the interactions that we have with others around us also happen at a subconscious and even instinctive level. There are times when we dont stop to pay attention to what is happening during a social interaction, yet the message is loud and clear. Many times, that message is sent without a word being said.
This book is ideal for anyone who is looking to improve their communication skills at a non-verbal level. It isnt some book intended to show you cheats or hacks for communicating with other people. Rather, it is about building genuine interaction with other individuals in such a way that you can truly get your message across and thereby achieve your personal goals and objectives. As you hone these skills, you will find that you will also be able to build meaningful relationships that will help you feel more confident and fulfilled.
So, come on in. Lets find out how you can make the most of the skills you already possess by putting them into perspective non-verbal communication. You will find that becoming a master communicator is a lot easier than you might have thought.
See you on the inside.
Section 1: The Fundamentals of Body Language
Chapter 1: Body Language and the Science Behind It
Communication is one of the most fundamental forms of meaningful human interaction. Communication occurs at all times and in various manners. It can happen through spoken language or through gestures, facial expressions, and body movements. The phenomenon by which humans communicate using their bodys movements is called body language.
Body language can take many forms. It might be evidenced through the movement of a persons eyes or the direction they are looking. It might also be seen through a persons mannerisms such as being restless or jittery. It could even be revealed in a persons posture or how they conduct themselves.
Body language can even manifest in what a person decides to wear. Their clothes send out a message based on what color or design they are. A person can also change their body language by how they interact with their clothing and accessories, such as if they are spinning their wedding ring around their finger.
We can all think of instances in our lives that have been affected by body language, whether it was ours or another persons. We know that body language is a part of our daily lives and that it carries meaning. One of the most interesting things about it, however, is that it is backed by science.
Of course, there are times when body language doesnt seem very scientific at all. Personally, Ive had many interactions in which people act out in a very interesting way. For instance, some people tend to cross their arms over their stomachs when talking about something embarrassing. Others will begin to take deep breaths when they hear something they dont like.
Then there is the fact that a certain gesture can mean something for different people and/or in different situations. For example, some people will bite their bottom lips when nervous, but others will do so when aroused. Sometimes tears indicate sadness, other times happiness, and still other times anger. Even a smile, one of the few facial expressions considered to be universal among humans, can mean happiness if genuine or just be a disguise with only subtle hints exposing which is real and which is fake.
Nevertheless, at the root of it all, there is a scientific process behind body language.
Given the fact that body language conveys meaning, it is essential that you begin to familiarize yourself with the various ways in which such meaning is transmitted to your interlocutors. Consequently, the science of body language becomes much more relevant in our daily lives when viewed in light of communication. That is why we are going to delve into research conducted on this subject. Such research provides greater insight into the scientific aspects of understanding peoples nature.
A deeper understanding of body language will enable you to become more proficient in understanding the messages that others are communicating to you especially when such messages are subconscious or involuntary.
