Your Gestures Can Reveal Much More Than Your Words.

[LoShiNi]

Communication is one of the pillars of our society. However, it’s much more complex than the words we use. When we express ourselves, our body gestures often speak for themselves and end up saying something quite different than what we want. Here, we’ll see a series of postures and gestures which reveal our true emotions when we face with particular situations.



Boredom

It’s easy to detect when a person is bored. They begin moving their leg, tap the desk or look frequently at the clock. Their gaze also appears to be distant and shows a lack of interest.



Nervousness

The way we move our shoulders and hands demonstrates a state of nervousness. If the person constantly moves their hands, brings their legs together a lot or keeps twisting, it’s a sign that they are nervous.


Self-confidence

If people sit with their hands in their laps or puts their hands on their hips, it indicates they feel comfortable and perhaps even a little intimidating to others.



Handshake

With a handshake we can sometimes detect the emotions of the person we’re greeting. If the person greets us with the palm facing down, they are showing authority. However, if we notice that the person’s hand is a little sweaty, it could indicate that they are nervous.



Hand position

Depending on the situation which we’re in, hands position can tell us a lot about mood. If the person puts their hands with their palms facing down, it shows they are determined to do something.
