Body language matters. Our brain relies on snap judgements to categorize another person and predict whether they are trustworthy, threatening, competent, likeable, etc. Here are the top 15 body language blunders to watch out for.

As designers, we are lucky enough to get to interact with many different types of people during the course of our work. We observe people using technology and proposed design solutions. While working on our projects, we collaborate directly with our team, clients, and stakeholders to bring a solution to life. All of this interaction exposes us to lots of body language. The language of the body offers up many hints and insights into what people are thinking and feeling. It’s been said that our bodies tell what is really on our minds, and it’s important to know not only what others might be telling you but what you could be telling them.
It’s important for designers to have a fundamental understanding of body language and what are key signs to look for when interacting with users or project teams. There are key patterns that, when observed correctly, can tell you if someone is supportive of your idea, hiding their true feelings, or simply sitting back and daydreaming the meeting away.
Observing non-verbal communication cues is only one side of the coin, though—the other side being your own body language. Inherently knowing the patterns and signs of the body opens your eyes to the messages you might be giving off. The ability to manage your own body language is something that can be learned and mastered, helping you become a better collaborator and communicator.
Participants will walk away from this session with basic knowledge of how to read and respond to common non-verbal communication patterns and learn how to better manage their own non-verbal communication. They will be armed with additional resources to continue on their path of mastering the language of the body.
Body language is a non-verbal communication wherein you convey a certain message through your gestures and movements. Your bodily actions can be misread hence it is important to have the correct posture while communicating.

Gestures and movement provide the visuals that accompany your words. Learning to use them effectively will help you convey your message with confidence and your audience will see your message instead of just hearing it
Body Language is the unspoken communication that goes on in every Face-to-Face encounter with another human being.
It tells you their true feelings towards you and how well your words are being received.
A simple roll of the eyes or hand gesture may be all it takes to convey 100% of what we mean, no words, no tone, only 7-10% is attributable to the actual words we use in a conversation.

Servant Leadership Principles - Fostering a Culture of AgilityLen Lagestee
The phrase “servant leadership” is frequently used when current leadership styles (typically command-and-control) clash with an emerging culture of empowerment and self-organization. “We need our leaders to embody servant leadership” is a comment I recently heard. But what is servant leadership? Do people really know what they are asking for?
Let's take a look at a few of the principles from the book Servant Leadership by Robert Greenleaf.
The process of using wordless messages to generate is called Non-verbal Communication. A good communicator must be able to augment his/her verbal communication with the right non-verbal communication.

Isn’t it curious? We look at other people, envy them for looking so terribly perfect and wish we could trade places with them, while they consider us and think of the same thing. We're jealous of other people who themselves are jealous of us. We suffer from low self-regard, lack of assurance and lose hope in self-improvement and ever winning anyone over.

https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.
Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
2. Remember: Our
brain relies on snap
judgements to
categorize another
person and predict
whether they are
trustworthy,
threatening,
competent,
likeable,
etc.
Here are
the top 15
body
language
blunders
you can
avoid:
5. Breaking eye contact
too soon — can
make you seem
untrustworthy or
overly nervous. Hold
eye contact a hair
longer, especially
during a
handshake
No: 3
6. Nodding too much
— can make you
look like a bobble
head doll! Even if
you agree with
what’s being said,
nod once and then
try to remain
still
No: 4
10. Holding your hands
behind your back
(or firmly in your
pockets) — can look
rigid and stiff. Aim
for a natural, hands
at your sides
posture
No: 8
11. Looking up or
looking around — is
a natural cue that
someone is lying or
not being
themselves. Try to
hold steady eye
contact
No: 9
12. Staring — can be
interpreted as
aggressive. There’s
a fine line between
holding someone’s
gaze and staring
them down
No: 10
13. Failing to smile —
can make people
uncomfortable, and
wonder if you really
want to be there. Go
for a genuine smile
especially when
meeting someone
for the
first time
No: 11
14. Stepping back when
you’re asking for a
decision — conveys
fear or uncertainty.
Stand your ground,
or even take a slight
step forward with
conviction
No: 12
15. Steepling your
fingers or holding
palms up — looks
like a begging
position and
conveys weakness
No: 13
16. Standing with
hands on hips — is
an aggressive
posture, like a bird
or a dog puffing
themselves up to
look bigger
No: 14
17. Checking your
phone or watch —
says you want to be
somewhere else.
Plus, it’s just bad
manners
No: 15
18. So, what should you do? Aim for good
posture in a neutral position, whether
sitting or standing.
19. Stand with your arms at your sides, and sit
with them at your sides or with your hands in
your lap. Pay attention so that you naturally
hold eye contact, smile, and be
yourself.
20. If you discover you have a particular
problem with one or two of the gestures on
the list, practice by yourself with a mirror or
with a friend who can remind you every
time you do it, until you become aware of the bad
habit yourself.
