Body Language Magic Posture
Reading the Movements of the Body
Posture can determine if a person has an attitude, if the person is overbearing, and the like. If a person is standing, a person may lean against an obstacle to rest the body, or else stand straight up, thus showing a good posture as well as a purposeful meaning.
If a person has a balanced posture thus it can be interpreted as a sexual attraction. This may mean in some cultures that the person has an adapting personality and that the person is balanced properly.
Men in authoritative workplaces are commanded to sit up, stand up, and lie down with a posture in complete alignment. This is a symbolizing of respect and control.
Women often have a better posture than men, yet at what time illnesses set in it can affect the way a person sites, lie, or stands.
Usually at what time a person is standing or sitting with an aligned posture it means there health may be in good condition. You will also notice the chest area extending outward, while the head area is held up high. The person is often in control.
Other signals are often sent regardless of how the body is positioned. In other words the posture is a stand-behind the hands, eyes, mouth, and other parts of the body. The hands and eyes often make the most powerful body languages recognizable to all. For example, a woman with a fabulous posture may endure unwarranted male attraction. This could put the woman in a position to use the body to signal that the attention is not wanted. The woman could be sitting in an upright position and as a man approaches she may use her hand pointing it sideways and straight up while giving a firm NO. This will let the man know that his company is not needed.
On one hand the posture can send messages of dominance, while at other times the posture could appear natural. For example, a man may use his posture or stance, puffing up his chest and with his eyes staring into the eyes of the other party involved. If the stare lingers longer than a couple of minutes and no words are crossed it may be a sign of trouble.
A person could stand with a leg extended slightly frontward, hands in pocket, and arms bent slightly. This could be a symbol of relaxing, while standing in position.
Men when they are gathering and talking will often employ the last stance, unless the person is authoritative. A person standing with his arms folded across his chest in an upright position is showing a sign of control, while demonstrating that his defenses are prepared for the possible situation as it arises. Thus, he is showing a sign of control, while showing he feels slightly or immensely threatened in his environment.
Postures are seen while sitting, standing or lying down. While the body sits it will most times sit in an upright position with the knees bent, legs crossed and likewise. Men often place their hands over their chest while resting in a chair, which is a sign of comfortableness. Some people even prop their knees and legs up with one leg spread and the other leg firmly gripping the seat area. This too is a comfortable symbol.
If you are going for an interview your best bet is to sit up in the chair properly without slanting or dangling the posture. This will show the interviewer that you are in control of your situation. It will also let him/her know you are not threatened by the meeting.
