Body Language

Our bodies are communicating long before our words are. The position you stand in, what parts of your body are moving, where you place your hands—all these behaviors send messages about what we’re feeling and thinking. Recognizing what signals you’re giving off, and being able to decode others’ body language are essential skills when it comes to our communication.
