      Body Language and Lying - Adams Media

      Introduction

      Imagine a world where you’re never misunderstood, where you never send or receive mixed messages, where you never have to backtrack and say, Hey, that’s not what I meant!

      Some people view body language as a luxury, something they’ll learn about if and when they have the time. These same folks would probably be surprised to learn that experts estimate that a full two-thirds of communication is nonverbal. (Makes learning body language seem like a bit more of a necessity, doesn’t it?) So when you are speaking with someone, you’re not just processing what they’re saying, you’re subconsciously picking up on their movements as well. If their actions jive with their words, then you’re likely to decide — again, subconsciously — that this person is on the up-and-up. If something is off between someone’s words and movements, however, there’s a good chance that you’ll hold that person at arm’s length, possibly without realizing why.

      Most people want to learn body language for a specific event in their life, like a job interview, a first date, or turning the tables on a big old liar. But what you learn about nonverbal communication can be used in all kinds of situations, from work to school to interacting with your neighbors. It’s one thing to know how to charm people with your words; fortifying those words with the right unspoken cues really sells you and your personality to the people around you.

      Reading body language can help you navigate your way around almost any situation where you feel you need a key or legend to understand the other person’s intention. Think of the information in this book as your Rosetta Stone for decoding your interpersonal relationships. In this book, you’ll find every motion and gesture you’ll need to know in order to understand what’s really going on in the world around you.

      Trust Me: How to Spot a Liar

      One of the main reasons people want to learn how to decipher body language is to defend themselves against dishonesty. Whether you’re trying to read the true intentions of your romantic partner, looking to hook into the mind of a seemingly upstanding salesman, or simply attempting to read your best friend’s true thoughts, it’s helpful to know the cues that liars display. As always, it’s best to look for patterns of nonverbal behavior in order to get a feel for the other person’s objectives.
