Face And Eyes
The face is where we’ll look for most expressions of what is
going inside us . Within the facial areas ,the eyes tell us much more
than facial features . Thus ,we know to face and eyes we want to
determine much of meaning behind body language and non-verbal
communication .

Gestures
In addition to face and eyes, other body parts move and convey
meaning. We refer to this movement as gestures: the physical
movement of arms , legs , hand , and head.
