Arms And Hands
Self Development : Interpreting Body Language The easiest parts of the body to read in conversation and dialogue are also the most used and yet we have little notice of how we are moving them. This makes it perfect for us to use the hands and arms to see how someone is thinking and feeling about us. Clasically, arms folded suggests either disinterest and someone wants to leave or else they just are sceptical about what we think. They can also show stand offishness as they almost form a physical barrier between us and the other conversant. Hands gripping upper arms shows they are feeling defensive about whatever is being said and often don't believe what is being said. Arms unfolded however throughout suggests more openness and even positivity about both themselves and the conversation. Rubbing hands together is classically associated with joy or glee or even perhaps greed, in general it shows either excitement or positivity so is a good sign.
