The Messages From My Body

Let’s talk about the power of body language. So much of what we communicate isn't in our words—it’s in our posture, gestures, and facial expressions. In fact, some say as much as 90% of communication is nonverbal. Today, I want you to think about what your body is saying to your partner. Are your arms crossed when they’re talking to you? Are you turned away, or are you leaning in, showing that you’re fully present? Enhancing presence starts with being aware of the messages your body sends.

Action Items:

1. Be mindful of your body language today—keep an open posture and lean in when your partner speaks.

2. Mirror your partner’s expressions to show empathy and understanding.
