People can communicate with one another not only through verbal communication but also through nonverbal communication; moreover, the latter plays an essential role. According to some researchers abroad, in people’s daily life, nonverbal communication takes part over 65% in all of information exchange. And body language is an important part of nonverbal communication.
Body language contains eye language, gestures, postures, facial
expressions, manners and behaviors and touch and so on.
Eye Language As saying goes “The eyes are the window of the soul”. That is to say, we can read one’s mind through his/her eyes. Eye language can express complicated feelings.
Gesture means we communicate and express by the movement and manners of our hands and fingers.
Posture is a matter of how people sit, walk, stand and move.
Touch refers to the way people exchange information by touching one’s body. The most common touch behavior is hands shaking and hugs.
Facial Expressions The face has been called an ‘organ of emotion’ because we constantly read facial expressions to understand what others are feeling. The face provides vital clues to our own feelings and those of the people around us. Of all the nonverbal channels, the face is the most important broadcaster of emotions.
