Non-verbal Communication
Body language is everything. More often than not, we say more with our mannerism and body language than we do with our words. Simple things like nervousness can be detected by figiding, sweating, and the lack of eye contact. Depression can be detected by blank stares and blood shot or silken eyes. Blood shot eyes are sometimes an indication of lack of sleep. Gestures while talking to emphasize or dramatize a certain point is a mark of confidence and the selling of ideas. Others tend to use stern expressions when they don't approve of something.
How can we interpret all of these bodily signals that we throw at each other? We must use them ourselves. That's right: in order to know body language we just use it faithfully ourselves. Where might we use body language effectively? At work, at home, or even at the bar. There is so many things we can do to relay our point: how to effectively use body language and facial expressions correctly is within the code of conduct. Don't try to seduce your boss or anger your wife. There is many things even with nonverbal communication that we must use within a certain moral compass.
Often we use nonverbal communication without meaning to. Our eyes give everything away. We are caught in a broken world where words except through emails and texts are seldom exchanged. We must break that spell in society if we want to support others. We are, at our core, all extroverted. We are scientifically proven that we require stimulation. Imagine the world as a place where we are inspired by others. Without love, we would perish. Without our body language, we would be a blank slate. No one wants to be that. However, I believe at rimes we really are a blank canvas. When emotions from outer or inner sources, that blank canvas is fleshed out, contributing to our body language and facial expressions. When this happens, we show the world our emotions to even the casual observer. We only have the choice to show these emotions, but even still we can give them away without meaning to. Face it, our emotions are powerful.
How do we know when someone feels comfortable around us by their relaxed expressions and body language. Such behaviors of a person become relatively normal when we trust a person. They'll open up verbally, have an almost easy look in their eyes, and they will eat and drink freely around you. Nothing to them will seem unnatural around you. That reaction, that trust, I something that should never be broken. Bad karma will ensue if you hurt the one who trusts you.
We are almost drug down by our body language. I don't know what I would do if I was unknowingly of the way I act nonverbally. We are obviously hindered and empowered by our body language when karma is being executed. Bad karma generated aggressive or intimidating body language, and good karma creates loving and calm body language. Expressions in the eyes and facial expressions change when we are acting goodly or poorly.
Conclusion
Body language and facial expressions says a lot about a person. Its incredible to think that we are oblivious to what our own body gives away. Be sure to check yourselves and others of inner bodily cues. One who can master the expressions of one's self will be a master at business and pleasure. There is so much we can learn about ourselves through our own reaction, and even more greatly others. We are more than blank canvas. We are living, breathing, human beings who love, laugh, and feel.
