They say curiosity killed the cat. But why kill the cat when you can read body language?
Is he angry? Is she happy? Is he sad? Is she excited? Is he jealous?
While meeting/interacting with people we often come across these questions. We are not...
We mirror each other's body language as a way of bonding, being accepted and creating rapport, but we are usually oblivious to the fact that we are doing it.
1.Yawning is an excellent example of body language mirroring. Many of you are aware that yawning is contagious, where the mere sight of seeing someone open their mouth can cause you to yawn as well. This was initially thought to be a form of oxygenating the body, but it has also been proven to be a hardwired primitive mirroring technique.
2. Every now and again you will come across many people(best friends,couple etc.) that look scarily alike: their body language, expressions and even clothing will resemble each other. When two people think alike and get along, after a certain amount of time living together they will start looking very similar because they are constantly mimicking the other persons body language and expressions which creates muscle definitions in those facial areas.
3. When choosing a pet we commonly pick one that resembles us physically or that represents our attitude.
