Reading the "Crossed Arms" Body Language
Decoding the "Defensive" Gesture
When a person crosses his arms, it may mean any of the following:1) When You're Talking - He may not agree with what you said, and may be doubting or suspecting you. He may have a bad impression on you and may not wish to continue talking with you. It may also depict arrogance or defensiveness.
2) When He's Talking - He may be hiding something from you, or may even be lying. A person engages in this protective posture when he feels anxious or nervous.
3) He may be protecting himself from verbal attack to maintain his composure.
4) He might just be feeling cold.
When reading body language, it is important to take note of other body language signals in order to more accurately single out other people's feelings or thoughts.

Body Language Tips for Maximum Persuasion
Exhibiting the proper body movements to get what you want from others is as important as reading body language.Did you know that you can use your eyes to motivate others to speak more often, without asking them a single word?
In a group setting, the more eye contact a group member receives, the more prone he is to open up or speak out what's in his mind.
Fascinating, isn't it?
Widen your eyes to show that you are interested. It means you are responding positively to what your counterpart is saying.
Don't tap your feet because it sends signal that you are bored and want to get out of the discussion.
Quality of your voice is important. Make sure that your voice is clearly heard (but not loud) and that words are spoken clearly. Drink hot water or tea if you must to enhance your voice quality.
Don't match angry or pessimistic tone of people when you are persuading. Maintain your same level of voice.
Sometimes, we are not aware that our tone of voice is offending someone. When I was in grade school, I talked to people in an energetic fashion, or so I thought. I only realize that my tone and way of speaking was offending someone when she actually told me that she didn't like the way I speak. I was stunned. From then on, I am very careful whenever words come out of my mouth.
Never say statements like "You always.." and "You never..."
Be wary of facial expressions. Although some people can fake their smiles and expressions, it is difficult to maintain that fakeness for a long time. Within that time, closely observe for any sudden change of facial expression that reveals their true emotion.
However, never jump to conclusion. Although you might be fairly sure of their emotions, it is still recommendable to watch out for other cues. When there is a conflict between body language and words, the body language usually is right.

Reading the "Handshake" Body Language
Your Handshake Can Either Make or Break You
Wouldn't it be amazing if you can accurately predict other people's emotions, state or mood every time you're shaking their hands?Would you like to know how to properly shake hands in specific situations for maximum success?
Then listen closely. I'll show you what certain handshakes mean and what you can do to give a memorable handshake.
A person who is confident or exhibits power gives a firm handshake (palms pointing downwards in most cases).
Someone who is nervous, tensed or shy gives a wilted handshake (palms pointing upwards in most cases).
Now here are some wonderful tips to give an excellent handshake that makes people trust, respect or like you.
1) Smile while shaking hands, but don't smile for too long because it might give the perception that you're gullible or not too smart.
2) Make eye contact for around 3 seconds while shaking hands. Don't look too intensely nor too long into their eyes.
3) If you're sitting down, stand up to show respect when shaking hands (except in special cases like when you're eating). Remaining sited while shaking hands may give the impression that you're not interested in the other party, and will probably offend them.
4) If you have sweaty hands, wipe out the sweat with a napkin or handkerchief before shaking hands.
5) Extend your arm outward to show them your enthusiasm and confidence.
6) Your palm should come in contact with their palm. This conveys openness and sincerity, and proves that you're not hiding anything.
7) Don't squeeze their hands too hard. Shake hands firmly, but don't give too much pressure.
Hope these tips come in handy. Btw, if you want to discover the 10 vital "do's" and "don'ts" of shaking hands, as well as numerous body language and covert hypnosis secrets, go to:

When Joe Vitale talks, the world listens. Covert Hypnosis is the real deal.
It combines underground body language secrets and covert persuasion tactics.
And it's so simple and easy to use even a 12-year old can do it (must use with caution though, as this can also be dangerous in the wrong hands).

Reading the "Hands in Pocket" Body Language
Don't Put Your Hands Where They Don't Belong
A person putting his hands in his pocket may either exhibit any of the following body language signals:1) He may be nervous, anxious or uncomfortable with the situation.
2) He may be hiding something from you.
3) He may be restraining himself from doing a specific action or movement.
4) He may be bored, inattentive, or uninterested.
Putting your hands in the pocket may give the impression that you're not confident.
My advice: Remove your hands from your pocket. Use self-assured and steady hand gestures to better express your feelings, as well as convey an assertive and confident personality.
Did you find this information fascinating? This is just the tip of the iceberg. The true power of unconscious communication and body language lies in covert hypnosis.

Reading the "Clenched Fist" Body Language
Beware a Person with Clenched Fist
A person clenching his fist may either be conveying any of the following state, emotions or thoughts:1) He may be frustrated over a certain thing.
2) He may be angry.
3) He may be resisting your opinions or statements.
4) It may be a sign of defensiveness.
5) It may indicate confidence.
My advice would be to NOT clench your fist as it conveys an aggressive or negative implication.

This is very interesting. I feel a lot more needs to be taken into concideration such as non-visual disabilities cognitive and physical. If we become experts at body language we may be able to recapture our telepathic abilities only lost within man's made concept of time. It is would be easier if we as individuals could rise above NEED and be congruent at all levels. Mr Spok like qualities perhaps a little more humanly interactive... :-)

Unique lens. I liked the handshake part article. I found the hands in pocket interesting. I have known a few guys who stand with their hands in their pocket trying to look cool, like they are so relaxed. Sounds like they are nervous, or just don't want to be there. That's interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I believe all of it. I think you just have to read between the lives with most people. When you say that having your arms cross means your uninterested or hiding something, i think it depends on the situation you are put in in the first place. But that goes along with everything else too. It all just depends on the situation and who you are talking to, and what kind of person you are. So, i believe that all of this is true, you just have to put them in the right contexts.

in reply to Greg How would you know your gestures are not connected with what you're feeling at a particular moment if you haven't bothered to think about it? Most people aren't even aware of what they feel in a given moment and what kind of body cues they do within that moment. After I read this I started to pay more attention to how I felt at a particular moment and my body cues at the time I felt them. The emotions and gestures did match up. Don't be so quick to dismiss something that you haven't given any real thought to.

in reply to Greg Hi Greg,
For body language to be accurate, it's a good idea to watch out for other cues.
You can combine all the cues and see which ones are pertaining to the same body language interpretation.

Some of the responses are real short sighted.When your among friends or people people you are used to like Greg and Emeka (Dec08 and Jan09 resp) are not looking beyond the obvious. Greg, of course, if you're with friends you'd chat with your arms folded.Read to develop an idea and not to knock it down. Rather say under what circumstances the ideas of body language make sense and when they dont. Emeka would you talk to people you met for the first time with hands in your pockets? If you did you'd show a certain attitude. Nervousness perhaps. Greg if you met me for the first time and talked to me with your arms folded I'd say you are apprehensive. When you read stuff like this on body language have a waste paper bin (figurative) next to you. Throw away the stuff you dont need and keep the stuff you need.You'll find that there is something in these ideas for everyone. This approach should be adopted in all cases. Healthy skepticism yes, thowing out the baby with the dirty water? Nein!!

Greg wrote
I am unconvinced regarding some of the body language advice. For example, I often cross my arms during conversations with friends, and my friends do it also. It does not indicate insecurity, arrogance, defensiveness or anything else other than being something to do with my arms. Same goes for hands in pockets; means nothing besides giving me somewhere to put my hands. If your advice is this far off the mark with something I know about, how can I trust it to be accurate in cases I don't know about?
