Every gesture tells a story

Cuando pensamos en lenguaje y comunicación normalmente pensamos en el habla. Pero nuestros gestos y movimientos, en otras palabras nuestro lenguaje corporal, dice mucho más que las palabras. El lenguaje corporal también nos dice lo que otras personas en realidad piensan o sienten.

Un psicologo experto nos dice que las palabras son solo el 7 % de nuestra comunicación, mientras que el 93% viene de señales silenciosas. Los niños lo entinden naturalmente, pero mientras crecemos nos enfocamos en las palabras y perdemos el significado de las señales silenciosas. Los adultos son muy buenos en decir cosas que en realidad no sienten. El lenguaje corporal trabaja junto con el lenguaje verbal pero a veces se pueden contradecir. Por ejemplo, la gente puede decir que estan de acuerdo contigo, al mismo tiempo inclinando su silla y alejandose de ti. Alejandose fisicamente de ti, estan expresando desacuerdo.

"Hay gente que miente muy bien con el lenguaje corporal" , dice el psicologo . Por ejemplo, los politicos aprenden a usar ciertos gestos para quedar bien. Pero no les funciona muy bien, antes de creer en lo que dice la cara de la persona debes fijarte en todo su cuerpo. Mientras más lejos de la cara, más cierto es.

Aun así, algunos gestos faciales los hacemos por instinto. Por ejemplo, las pupilas de nuestro ojos se dilatan cuando nos sentimos atraidos a alguien. Mucho lenguaje corporal pasa inconsientemente. Si queremos entender y usar estos gestos tenemos que estar al tanto de los diferente significados. Fijarte en tu propio lenguaje corporal y en el de los demas ayuda a comunicarse mejor . Si aprendes a decifrar y usar el lenguaje corporal tendras un lenguaje más fluido.

II. What would you do if you were Jennifer? 100 words.

If I was Jennifer I wouldn´t look for the problem, I probably get the hell ot of there and look for the safety place for the students. Maybe I`ll freak out but I have to stay calm because I`m a teacher and the children trust me, If I listened to that annoying noise I would get a headache and intense pain in my ears. I would complain about the firemen station for not come when they were need. And when I realize that was a false alarm I would get mad because all the complications were unnecesary. Well, that is what I would do if I get in a situation like that, I hope that I never have to face a similar situation. That was all folks!
