What we say without words

Check this slide show out! Hosted by Kathryn Tolbert, of the Washington Post, "Former FBI Agent Joe Navarro describes how our torsos, hands, feet and legs frequently communicate emotions that are not put into words."

MY FAVORITE PARTS:

NO NO'S

"Crossed arms: Suddenly crossing arms tightly is a sign of discomfort"

"Neck touching: Indicates emotional discomfort, doubt or insecurity"

"Jiggling/kicking foot: Indicates discomfort"

YES YES'

"Fingertips spread apart on a surface: A display of confidence and authority"

"Arms akimbo (hands on your hips): Establishes dominance or communicates there are 'issues"

"Steepling (fingertip to fingertip): A powerful display of confidence"

Give it a try...
