1. Have you ever heard anyone say, "His
actions spoke so loudly I couldn't hear
what he said?"

2. INTRODUCTION :-
Body language is a kind of non-verbal communication.
It includes facial expressions, eye contact, tone of voice,
body posture and motions, and positioning within
groups.
John Borg attests that human communication consists of
93 percent body language and paralinguistic cues, while
only 7% of communication consists of words themselves.

3. Why is Body Language important?
• Body language plays a big role in intuition as it
gives us messages about the other person, that
we can interpret at an intuitive level.

4. Components of Body Language

5. Facial Expressions
 There are some universal facial expressions; a smile,
a frown, etc.
 Eye contact is direct and powerful.
 The use of eye contact varies significantly from
culture to culture

6. Gestures
 Fidgeting shows boredom and restlessness.
 Pressing fingers together to form a steeple
shows interests, assertiveness and
determination.
 Touching the nose or rubbing eyes indicates
discomfort.
 A hand to the back of the neck may indicate
withdrawal from a conversation.

7. Open Stance
 Interested people always have an erect posture, pay
attention and lean forward
 A firm handshake will give the impression of
assertiveness or honesty
 People showing open hands, both feet planted on the
ground are accepting
 A head tilted to the side indicates interest

8. Closed Stance
 Leaning backwards demonstrates aloofness or rejection
 Folding arms across ones chest or body is protective
and gives the impression of a closed, guarded and
defensive character.
 People with arms folded, legs crossed and bodies
turned away are signalling that they are rejecting
messages.
 A head down is negative and judgmental.

9. Space
• There are four distinct zones in which most people
operate:
• Intimate Area 15-50 cm
• Personal Area 0.5-1m
• Social Area 1-3m
• General Area 3m
