Body Talk - Non Verbal Messages

Sounds, Colour, Clothes, Music and Handshakes

Body Language combined with colour, clothes, tone of voice and music are together considered non-verbal communications.

In total 93% of the impression we make on others is through non verbal means.  Body language consists of our communication through the use of facial expressions, eye behaviour, gestures, postures, positioning, orientation, touch and the use of space.  There are times we choose to express our emotions, feelings, and attitudes through our body language and at other times our true feelings leak out accidentally, even sometimes contradicting the words we have spoken.
