5 Important Types of Nonverbal Communication - Part 1

Did you know that the components of face-to-face #communication is 55% NONVERBAL, 38% vocal, and 7% words ONLY😮 If #nonverbalcommunication plays a vital part in how we communicate and build trust with others, how #mindful are we really of our nonverbal communication cues?

Today let’s have a look at 5 important ones:

💡 1 #Facialexpressions
A smile, frown, or grimace tells a lot about their mood and how the subsequent #conversation will go.

💡 2 #Kinesics
Or #gestures, are conscious #bodymovements like waving, pointing, and giving a thumbs up or down. One's culture typically determines what gestures are socially acceptable and which are rude.

💡 3 #Paralinguistics
Or vocalics, refers to the aspects of verbal communication that aren’t the words themselves. Eg: Your #toneofvoice, loudness, and pitch.

Think about all the ways you use the phrase “I’m fine.” If you say it quietly, you might be feeling down, but if you say it forcefully, someone might detect your defensiveness.

💡 4 #Proxemics
Refers to how NEAR something is. IMPORTANT! Human beings take #personalspace seriously. 
Everyone interprets physical distances in interactions differently based on our social and cultural expectations, personal preferences, and type of relationship we have with another.

💡 Gaze
Our #eyecontact is a MASSIVE factor in nonverbal communication because it can give clues to how we feel. 

Which of these 5 do you manage really well? Do share with me in the comments below.

Wishing you a fab day ahead🌻
