Body Language

Body language is a form of nonverbal communication. Physical behaviour such as gestures, posture, or facial expressions may reveal and reflect what a person is thinking and feeling.

Amy Cuddy: Your body language shapes who you are

Does body language just reflect who we really are inside, or can the way we move or stand shape we are? Amy Caddy, a social psychologist, argues that "power posing" - standing in a posture showing confidence, even if we are just faking it - has on effect on the levels of testosterone (dominance hormone) and cortisol (stress hormone) in the brain. Power posing decreases stress and increases a feeling of confidence and power. This is why Amy Cuddy says: "Fake it till you become it".
