Body Language Signals
One can tell how someone is feeling by their body language signs.
Its useful to be able to read peoples body language because what people say and they feel are often not the same.
Studies have shown that of the information that we receive from other people: 10%what they actually say; 40% is from the tone and speed of their voice; 50% is from body language.

Reading and Analyzing Body Language
Up to 93 % of communication is non-verbal Including tone of voice, eye movement,
posture, hand gestures, facial expressions and more.
Body language usually prevails over words. Hence it is important to be able to read a
analyze body language.
Some tips and traps are:
Multiple meanings
A problem with reading people is that body language can have multiple meanings.
Eg.
People who are relaxed fold their arms, as do people who are cold
Touching your face may signify thinking and a whole host of other things

Reading and Analyzing Body Language
Synchrony
One secret of reading body language is to look for things that happen at the same time.
Eg.
If you ask someone a searching question and they close their body, then this may be
indication that they do not want to tell the truth. It may also, of course, mean that th
not like your aggressive style, so you should be aware of your part in the dance and c
your style accordingly
ClustersInterpreting body language by clusters is very crucial to understand overall mood or
conditions of person in any given circumstance.
Most of us mistake to interpret each of them in isolation and that completely misleads.
Eg.
When a person folds his arms. This could mean several things. To get the real picture
should also observe the facial expressions, posture and gazehttp://changingminds.org/explanations/behaviors/body_la

Outward, upward hand movements express an open and positive message.
Open palms occasionally touching the chest imply honesty.

Eye contact is a strong indication of focus of attention, interest, attraction, and honesty.
You can spot somebody lying to you if he or she cannot hold an eye contact for a period
of time.
When the eyes would look away, it signifies lack of interest, dishonesty, and boredom.
Looking away may also signify attraction or simply an occurrence of a slight distraction,
for as long as the person will look back to the person he is talking to.
When the eyes say one thing, and the tongue another, a practiced man relies on the language of the first

Cultural differences in body languageCultural differences often convey a myriad of meaning via body language. The prime being:
The ring gesture by hand means OK to a westerner, money to a J
zero to a French & insulting to Turks and Brazilians.
Pointing with one figure is considered rude in some Asian countries, as is the co
American "come here" gesture. Germans point with their little finger, whereas J
residents point with their whole hand.
In Arab cultures the Thumbs-up rule is considered offensive.
