Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    A second aspect of body language is movement and gestures. All people unconsciously use gestures to back up what they are saying. Watch people talking at a party, during a meeting, during a class, in the hallways. They all use their hands for example people might use certain gestures called emblems that have a direct verbal translation in our culture. Such as A for Ok, they might also use gestures to illustrate what they are saying such as using their hands to describe an object or a motion or enumerating a list of main points.

    Gestures not only reinforce what people say they also reveal people's attitude. People may perceive gestures as either warm or cold. In our culture warm gestures might include leaning toward people with an open posture and open gestures, directly facing them, smiling, touching and gesturing expressively.

    Cold gestures might include keeping your  hands on your hips, slumping, avoiding eye contact, not smiling and gesturing nervously such as cleaning your fingernails, drumming your fingers, fiddling with objects or Jewellery or looking at your watch. Most people naturally use good gestures when they are sitting because they are not thinking about what to do with their hands. When you are sitting, remember to avoid nervous gestures and stony facial expressions.
