“Communication researchers estimate that 55-93% of what you communicate happens nonverbally. Your body is always giving a speech. Make it a good one.”
Foundation: Take Up Space Comfortably
Occupy your space without apology. Let your arms rest at your sides. Sit with shoulders back. Stand with weight balanced. Comfort in your space reads as security — the foundation of all attraction.
The High-Impact Signals
The torso turn. When someone speaks to you, turn your torso toward them — not just your head. This signals genuine engagement.
The open palm. Visible palms signal openness. Let your palms face upward or outward when gesturing.
The slow nod. Nodding slowly while someone speaks signals deep agreement. Remarkably powerful at making people feel heard.
Controlled gestures. Deliberate and contained gestures project confidence. Scattered, rapid gestures project anxiety.
The pause before speaking. After someone finishes talking, pause 1-2 seconds. Makes everything you say seem more considered.
