Body movements and posture
Our movements and how we carry ourselves send important messages to others.Our body language, gestures, facial expressions, and eye contact are all powerful nonverbal communication tools that can influence the messages we send and receive.We tend to exude confidence when we feel good about our nonverbal communication, which can be contagious.While touch is an important part of nonverbal communication, keep in mind that not everyone is comfortable with strangers touching them.A hug can communicate comfort or love, whereas a handshake can communicate respect or admiration.Someone who touches another person's hair may be flirtatious or playful.Body language can have a significant impact on how others perceive us. It can also have an impact on how we feel about ourselves.
