Sometimes actions speak louder than words, especially when no one is actually talking. Body language is a great way to try to get an idea of what your subject is thinking. Say you just told your friend some bad news, and they seem to be taking it okay, well, that doesn’t mean they are actually okay, you can study their body language in order to see what they actually feel like, or what they are actually thinking. Body language is probably one of the hardest languages to use, because it is all based on an average, meaning that not everyone’s body language will mean the same thing, one person bobbing their head while they talk could mean something entirely different than another person. Also being able to read body language takes a lot of skill, and some would consider it a gift. One thing about body language, is try not to get too wrapped up in it, because you will find yourself over analyzing everything that someone is doing, when in reality their body language is meaningless. Here are some different types of body language:

In my next post, I will go over the body language of a lier, but remember, once you read it, you will be able to tell if people are lying, and sometimes ignorance is bliss.
