Body lanuage

So some of you know that I am strange and get on certain curiosity kicks. One of which was about handwriting analysis. I still think that this is fascinating how our brain gives us away when we write. Our arm is just the tool but our brain is reflecting our emotion and honesty with every stroke and space we have in our writing.

Now I am on a curiosity kick regarding body language. I think it is because again I want to see beyond the obviousness of verbal language. I deal with people all day that many times are not completely honest with me. I know that looking up and one way is finding a memory but that looking up and the other way is finding a lie. However, I have noticed that many of my clients tend to have similar body language when they are talking to me. I want to understand it. Are they nervous? Are they lying? What are they really saying?

I guess I feel if I know their body clues then I can ask the right follow-up questions to get what needs to be out, out. Truth be told I want to help each of them but if I don't know some crucial things than I can't. Hmmmm. So anyway I ordered a book last night that got rave reviews. I guess we will see if I learn anything.

  1. There are classes that are offered, you should see if the offer any through your job or the PD. Did you know that Dick's aunt (now deceased) was a hand writing analyst for the PD in Oregon?
