Love Life and Health Advice

Gestures, movements, and postures, all excellent examples of body language, and how others view us. We all have our boundaries, a bubble if you will; formally one may call this a personal zone. This zone we call our bubble is a boundary in which we protect from invasion or intrusion, and if intruded we feel uncomfortable.

The bodily gestures, postures, and facial expressions are what a person uses to communicate nonverbally with others. Julias Fast popularized the publication of Body Language in 1970. She stated that it was the lay term for nonverbal communication. Body language accounts for 50% of how people perceive, respond and connect with others. Often people do not think about how and what their bodies may be communicating to others. If people were too they would be 50% ahead of the game. What percent of our communication is nonverbal? On the Seinfeld episode, Kramer has a conversation with Jerry and states that 94% of our communication is nonverbal.

Studies on behaviour indicate that people have a certain distance that is appropriate for different messages they want to give. As well people tend to have a distance for personal interaction that is non-verbally defined as their personal space. Intimate distances for embracing or whispering are normally 6-18 inches, the personal distance for conversations among good friends is normally about 1.5-4 feet, social distance for conversations among acquaintances is normally 4-12 feet, and public distance used for public speaking is normally 12 feet or more.

The most important place to consider body language is an interview for that dream job you have always thought of having. When in the interview, make sure you are relaxed, not so much that you slouch in the chair, but enough that you are sending out the message that you have confidence. Never lie in an interview either, your body language may tell the truth or give you away which will blow your chances of your dream coming true.

There are two types of answers one might grasp in studying at a persons body language, those are; “Welcome, I’m sociable,” or “Go away, I’m non sociable;” view sociable as the mood a person may be in. When a person is sociable the body language is as well; Uncrossed legs and arms, smiling, leaning forward, a relaxed aura, and the person tends to use their legs, hand, arms and feet to exemplify that they are social. When a person is non-sociable the situation, as expected, is reversed.

So the next time you see that girl or guy at the bar or wherever, check their body language first to see if they actually are interested in conversing with someone, if not it is likely you will get shunned.
