20 Body Language Facts

80% of communication is really conveyed through body language. If you want to really know what someone is thinking or feeling, pay attention to the body language.

However, body language means different things in different contexts including culture.

Here is a list of 20 body languages and what they generally mean in Western culture:

Squinting - When people see what they don’t like, feel threatened, or are unhappy, they squint their eyes.

Arched Eyebrows - When we raise our eyebrows, it means we are contemplating what we’re listening to and that we’re mildly intrigued.

Direct Eye Contact - means we’re interested, we’re listening, and that we’re focused on you. It also conveys that we got nothing to hide.

Blinking too much - means we’re nervous or anxious

Hands the Church Steeple - fingertips touching, palms facing apart conveys we’re thinking and that we’re about to make a decision or move.

Arms Akimbo - planting your hands with your thumps backward on your hips and elbows out in a “V” shape displays dominance or authority.

Feet facing directly the other person - It shows that we’re focused on the other person.

Crossed feet (Standing or sitting) - When we cross our feet standing or sitting down, it shows that we’re comfortable or relaxed, but sometimes also defensive.

23 Psychological Life Hacks You Need To Know

1. When you first meet people try to notice their eye color while also smiling at them. It might be because you look for a second or two longer, but all I can tell you is that people really respond to it.

2. Pay attention to people’s feet. If you approach two people in the middle of a conversation, and they only turn their torsos and not their feet, they don’t want you to join in the conversation. Similarly if you are in a conversation with a coworker who you think is paying attention to you and their torso is turned towards you but their feet are facing in another direction, they want the conversation to end. You should check out Carol Kinsey Goman’s research on these types of things in the workplace.

3. Foot-in-the-door phenomenon. People are more likely to agree to do a task for you if you ask them to do something simpler first. (Gradual Commitment… makes people them think you like them)

4. Alternatively you ask them to do an unreasonable task, and they’ll say no, so then you ask for what you wanted, a much more reasonable task, and they’re more likely to agree that way.

5. If you ask someone to do you a small favor, cognitive dissonance will make them believe that because they did that favor, they therefore must like you. (Ben Franklin)

6. If you ask someone a question and they only partially answer just wait. If you stay silent and keep eye contact they will usually continue talking.

7. Chew gum when you’re approaching a situation that would make you nervous like public speaking or bungee jumping. I can’t remember where I heard it but apparently if we are ‘eating’ something in our brains trip and it reasons ‘I would not be eating if I were danger. So I’m not in danger’. Has helped calm me a few times.

8. Avoid the sidewalk shuffle by looking intently over the person’s shoulder, or between people’s heads in a group. Your gaze shows them where you’re going. They’ll drift toward the opposing side / create a gap to avoid you.

9. When you’re studying/learning something new, teach a friend how/about it. Let them ask questions. If you’re able to teach something well, you understand it.

10. People will remember not what you said but how you made them feel.

20 Ways To Be A Better Listener When Your Friend Needs To Vent

[beben-eleben]

1. Do not just ask your friend questions because you want them to ask you in return.

“What’d you do last weekend? Nothing? Well, I had the best Saturday night…”

2. Actually listen when they do have a legit response to your inquiries.

It’s best not to just wait for your turn to talk. This seems simple but it is key. Do not just show the initial interest but make sure you carry it throughout. You care about this person and you care about their answer. I have a friend that goes on twenty minute long tangents and when she finally asks me a question, she loses interest, simply ignores my response and says something completely different. A lot of people avoid her for this reason.

3. Make eye contact.

Do not be looking behind that person staring off into space thinking about what you’re having for dinner tonight or when your boyfriend’s going to text you. Do not look over at other people having a conversation. Or away in boredom. It’s insulting and the other person can actually tell, since you are their sole focus at that moment.

4. Resist the urge to say generic things in between or throughout someone’s talking.

Examples include “mmhmm”, “ohhh”, and “yeah” every other sentence. It’s the worst when someone is interrupting your flow with their own background noise. Not only is it distracting but it sounds like they are just enamored with their own voice. Also: elaborate/constant nodding is just…visually offensive.

5. If you’re listening well, you’ll be able to remind the speaker if they were interrupted by you or another person where they left off, so they can pick the story up again

Even come up with a specific example. There have been an unspeakable amount of times where I’ve been telling a good story — I mean something really juicy — got rudely interrupted, and then the topic was changed immediately after. Unfortunately I’ve found it’s even more heartbreaking to watch happen to somebody in a group setting. Just watch for it and it’ll be easy enough to spot.

6. Try not to interrupt a story or rant with a totally different subject in the first place

This should be obvious but once in a while I’ve found those that are so overeager with the amount of important thoughts brimming over in their heads that they can’t contain them any longer. Sadly, it can be very frustrating to the speaker as it suddenly dawns on them that they don’t have your full attention.

7. At all costs avoid the knee-jerk immediate generic response after someone’s told you a) something that really matters to them, b) something that leaves them vulnerable, or c) both of the above

Take your time to think of something that is honest, genuine, and appropriate to what is being said. It’s not too hard, trust me.

8. Listen to the entire thing before you decide to make snap judgments or calls about the situation

Do no act like you know anything about it until they have completely and totally finished their monologue.

12 Lies People Love to Tell You

[beben-eleben]

1. What you need in life is comfort and safety. If you want to make an impact, big or small, get comfortable with being uncomfortable. All growth begins at the end of your comfort zone. Maybe the thing you’re scared of is exactly what you should do. Sometimes life is about risking it all for a dream no one can see but you.

2. You have way too much to lose. In the end, you will not regret the things you have done nearly as much as the things you have left undone. It’s always better to be left with a few “oh wells,” than a bunch of “what ifs.” It’s better to have a lifetime full of experiences and mistakes you learned from, rather than a heart full of regrets and empty dreams. Someday you will want to look back at your life and say, “I can’t believe I did that!” instead of, “Gosh, I wish I would have…” 

3. Your dream is impossible. When a dream matters enough to a person, that person will find a way to achieve what at first seemed impossible. Let that person be YOU. It’s kind of fun to do the impossible. Go after your dream, no matter how unattainable others tell you it is. What’s impossible to them may not be impossible for you.

4. Being self-centered is always wrong.

You must choose yourself and live your life from beginning to end; no one else can do it for you. Claiming full control over your health, dreams, and well-being are some of the areas in your life where you get to be a little selfish and not feel bad about it. If you want to reach your goals, you have to be the center of this part of your journey. You have to make it work for you and you alone. It’s not selfishness, it’s self-care and self-improvement. Anything less is a setup for failure.

5. You need the approval of others. People are sometimes too quick to judge, but slow to correct themselves. Don’t be one of them. Focus on your own growth, goals, and self-worth. Leave people to their opinions and judgments. Let them respect you for who you are, and not for who they want you to be… Or let them walk away if they choose. Either way, they can’t harm you; it’s their understanding that is faulty, not yours.

Top 10 Ways To Stop Your Personal Insanity

1. Meditation

The practice of meditation has been around for centuries, and for good reason. When you feel like you have 50 different thoughts running through your head every 60 seconds: Meditate. Sit comfortably, close your eyes and repeat a simple mantra. Keep it short and sweet, especially when you’re feeling stressed. For example, you can repeat ‘relax’ or ‘breathe’, or even just start counting. You’re literally training your mind to sustain single-pointed concentration, which helps you prioritize your thoughts… and life.

2. Move Your Body

Whether you like vigorous exercise or something more low-key, your body craves movement. It’s easy to practice at home; these 4 yoga poses to help you relax are easily accessible for anyone. Exercise with strong breath control and a little bit of sweat helps you release tension while embracing positivity and self-worth.

3. Be Honest With Yourself

Be true to yourself. This sounds obvious and simple, doesn’t it? It’s one of the hardest things to do. We’re always influenced by the people and media around us; it’s easy to lose yourself in the chaos. At the end of the day, always come back to what you want to do and don’t be scared to veer away from the crowd. It’s ok to become a little selfish, you’re the one that lives with your decisions, after all.

Should You Break Up?

[beben-eleben]

Everything he does annoys you.

Suddenly, every little thing he does annoys you, no matter how innocent it really is. You can either try to focus on the things that you loved about him in the first place, or you can break up.

You no longer like his personality.

At first he seemed charming. Then you realized that he’s not charming, he’s actually just conceited. Now you’re tired of constantly hearing him tell you how great he is. It’s time to break up.

You have different priorities.

You plan on getting your Master’s degree, and he’s happy with his GED. Can this work? Perhaps, but you clearly have very different priorities and life goals, which is bound to cause trouble in your relationship; it might be better to break up.

You no longer have fun together.

You used to have fun together no matter what you were doing, but now spending time together seems more like a chore than like fun. It’s time to either find a way to have enjoy each others’ company again, or break up.

You are constantly checking out other guys.

When you are in a happy relationship, you have no reason to check out other guys. When your relationship is failing, you start looking for something better.
