The document discusses how the limbic system influences nonverbal behavior by "leaking" information about our emotional state through our body language. When comfortable, our body language conveys contentment and confidence, while discomfort causes stress-related behaviors. Understanding these "behavioral markers" allows us to determine what others may be thinking or how to interact with them. The limbic system's threat responses like fight or flight will be followed by "pacifying behaviors" as the brain works to restore itself to a normal state and calm the body down.

Web Mobile : quelles opportunités face aux apps ?NiceToMeetYou
"It's an App World", nous disait Flurry (solution de mobile analytics) en 2014. Pourtant, les marques font face à des coûts de déploiement et de maintien des applications souvent élevés. Pire encore, selon Google, seules 3 applications - sur la moyenne de 15 qu'en compte un smartphone en France - seraient régulièrement utilisées par un mobinaute. Alors avec ses 20% de temps passé sur mobile, le navigateur web présente-t-il une alternative efficace aux stores ? Etat des lieux des usages, des solutions techniques, des expériences créatives et des enjeux marketing que le Mobile Web permet encore d'adresser. Avec beaucoup d'exemples concrets à la clé !

This educational and groundbreaking tool will not only give us a chance to see features of our emotions that may not be apparent to us, but also will give us a better understanding of our emotions.
Reactions-It is instinctual to act /say/write/behave stemming from the subconscious mind without filtering process running on auto-pilot without thinking first and considering its implications
Reactions are like a puppy who hasn’t been trained.
That untrained puppy is going to bark at every dog it sees, jump at every passing neighbor, and then he’ll eat your dinner … as soon as he sees it.
Responses –Are more thoughtful, first explore in mind the possible outcomes, weighing the pros and cons and considering what would be best in the situation.
Responses are more like the well-trained and well-behaved dog who comes when you call him, barks only when there’s a reason to bark, and waits patiently for his treat.

ber experiences from our past encounters and build upon them (see box 9).
Thus far we have seen how efficiently the limbic system helps us to deal
with threats. Now let’s look at how our brain and body work together to
comfort us and give us confidence in our personal safety.
When we experience a sense of comfort (well-being), the limbic brain
“leaks” this information in the form of body language congruent with
our positive feelings. Observe someone resting in a hammock on a breezy
day. His body reflects the high comfort being experienced by his brain.
On the other hand, when we feel distressed (discomfort), the limbic brain
expresses nonverbal behavior that mirrors our negative state of being.
Just watch people at the airport when a flight is canceled or delayed.
Their bodies say it all. Therefore, we want to learn to look more closely
at the comfort and discomfort behaviors we see every day and use them
to assess for feelings, thoughts, and intentions.
In general, when the limbic brain is in a state of comfort, this mental
and physiological well-being is reflected in nonverbal displays of content-ment
and high confidence. When, however, the limbic brain is experienc-ing
discomfort, the corresponding body language is characterized by
behaviors emblematic of stress or low confidence. Knowledge of these
“behavioral markers” or tells will help you determine what a person may
be thinking, or how to act or what to expect when dealing with other
people in any social or work context.
The Importance of Pacifying Behaviors
Understanding how the limbic system’s freeze, flight, and fight responses
influence nonverbal behavior is only part of the equation. As you study
nonverbal behavior, you will discover that whenever there is a limbic re-sponse—
especially to a negative or threatening experience—it will be
followed by what I call pacifying behaviors (Navarro, 2007, 141–163).
These actions, often referred to in the literature as adapters, serve to
calm us down after we experience something unpleasant or downright
nasty (Knapp & Hall, 2002, 41–42). In its attempt to restore itself to
“normal conditions,” the brain enlists the body to provide comforting
