Body Language
THESISEssay summary
Whether in fact, there are seven universal different moods. But before going any further, what is body language? How does it work? Do we develop it over time, or is it in our nature? First of all, the definition of body language is the process of communicating non-verbally through conscious or unconscious gestures and body movements. In other words, body language is when people communicate to each other nonverbally using facial expressions, gestures, and/or body movement. Body language is used in our every day life, without even knowing it sometimes; 65% of our communications are done non verbally. That's why talking on the phone using a language other than your mother-tongue's could be difficult sometimes. Body language is in the nature of human beings; it is not something that we develop. Yet, most of us are not aware of the body gestures that we show, which could send the wrong message to the person we are communicating to. That’s why being able to control your body language, and read and interpret other’s body language is an affective skill that is said to be the key to success. Is there a universal body language? As I mentioned before, there are 7 expressions of Universal Body Language. These 7 expressions of Universal Body Language express: 1) Sadness. 2) Fear. 3) Boredom. 4) Anger. 5) Disgust. 6) Happiness. 7) Surprise. Along with these different expressions, a set of different movements is carried. For example: Happiness à smile. Although we might not experience all these different emotions in a single day, we do experience them very often over the course of a life-time, That’s why we can read the body language that accompanies these emotion very easily. Beside these, there are other body gestures that could be considered “universal”, such as eye contact for example (which usually is a sign of respect). Linda Talley, an expert on body language says: “This is the universal gesture of validation, and when sincere, it builds a lot of bridges toward achieving the results you want." Solid handshakes, which give a message of confidence & intelligence, in my opinion are “universal”. They immediately send a message to the other person that you are confident, intelligent, and willing to build a relationship. Research shows that it takes an average of three hours of continuous interaction to develop the same level bonding that you can get with a single handshake.
Definition: the process of communicating nonverbally through conscious or unconscious gestures and movement.

Article 1: Body Talk
By: Linda Talley
This article, written by Linda Talley who is an expert in Body Language, talks about how to make good first-impressions through body language, especially in interviews. It specifically mentions the different body gestures that send different messages. For example, Talley claims that maintaining eye contact shows respect, and that “This is the universal gesture of validation, and when sincere, it builds a lot of bridges toward achieving the results you want." She also says that offering solid handshakes and having a good posture with shoulders back are signs of confidence. This article is more of an Ad. kind of articles, but still I find it helpful in identifying specific body gestures and what they mean. I’m also glad that it mentions something about universal body language stating an opinion of one side of the discussion.
