BODY LANGUAGE    1ºESO

Over 90% of our communication is nonverbal; body language training will teach you how to read and use body language effectively and will help you to improve your life and your relationships. In PE you can quickly learn the secrets of body language

Your body is giving out many messages at the same time. By reading only one of the signals, you could get the completely wrong message. That can be the difference between getting the job or not, clinching the deal or losing it or making the right impression on a date.

There are five primary functions of nonverbal bodily behaviour in human communication:

• Express emotions
• Express interpersonal attitudes
• To accompany speech in managing the cues of interaction between speakers and listeners
• Self-presentation of one’s personality
• Rituals (greetings)

 In the 1990s Ekman expanded his list of basic emotions, including a range of positive and negative emotions. The emotions are:

·       1. Amusement

·       2. Contempt

·       3. Contentment

·       4. Embarrassment

·       5. Excitement

·       6. Guilt

·       7. Pride in achievement

·       8. Relief

·       9. Satisfaction

·       10. Sensory pleasure

·       11. Shame

Posture

 Posture is understood through such indicators as direction of lean, body orientation, arm position, and body openness.

• Closed posture: if you take up less space with your body than a normal posture you can express that you are tired, cold…you are shy. It depends on the posture: crossing legs, or arms, if you back in bent…

• An open posture: the opposite, if you take up more space with your body than a normal posture you can express happiness, excitement, and so on.

The posture is highly dependent on cultural patterns. Expressing respect by bending the body in half and tilt their heads in the Japanese culture has a different meaning than in Western culture.

   Gesture

A wink is a type of gesture.

A gesture is a non-vocal bodily movement intended to express meaning. They may be articulated with the hands, arms or body, and also include movements of the head, face and eyes, such as winking, nodding, or rolling ones' eyes. The boundary between language and gesture, or verbal and nonverbal communication, can be hard to identify.
