Body Language is when people communicate without the use of words.
We give and receive wordless signals Even when we are just sitting silently
There are different types of body languages that we give out.
Touch
Posture
Smell
Sounds
Volume
Eye Contact
Dress
Your body language shows whether you care about what the other person has to say or not.
Matching the words you say with your body language is important!
• -Achieving this can increase trust and clarity. However, failing to do this can lead to mistrust, tension, and confusion.
EVERYTHING!!Failing to communicate non verbally can destroy a conversation
before it even happens.Your non-verbal signals can affect how others see you, how a
person like and respects you, and whether or not they can trust you.

Being stress can mess up your communication.

Don't forget that emotions are contagious!
• First thing first, Calm down!
• Avoid jumping back into a conversation if you're stressed.
• Clearing your mind from negative thoughts will help.
-Imagine hugging a puppy!
After developing your ability of non- verbal communication, you'll be able to read other peoples' body language.
Things to watch for when reading others:
• - Eye Contact
• - Facial Expression
• - Tone of Voice
• - Posture and Texture
Our perception of others can sometimes prevent us from effectively communicating with people that we do not know or know only very little about. Our perceptions are not necessarily based on who an individual is but more on what they look like and our own internal beliefs about certain groups of people. Whether most people realize it or not, they will more often than not develop their own idea about who someone is before they have even talked to them. This can destroy any attempt at effective communication.
Stereotyping
Appearance
Overanalyze
Lack of Empathy
Being closed Minded
Ruins a conversation before it starts
Check your punctuationBe aware of what you are saying and how you are saying it keeping in mind that the other person may see things differently.Check your knowledgeYour perceptions are only as accurate as the information in your head. Never assume that you know what people are really like or what they really mean by what they are saying, ask others to explain if you need to.Check your attributionsTry not to internally attribute negative or positive characteristics about others character or personality based solely on their communication.Check perceptual influencesBe mindful and aware of how Gender, culture and personality are shaping your perceptions of others and ask yourself if this is affecting your communication.Check your impressionsTry to constantly reflect on the impressions that you are forming about someone. Attempt to resist stereotyping. Weigh new information about someone and reshape your impression
