Subtle shifts in body language can indicate changes in emotions or thoughts from "summary" of The Definitive Book of Body Language by Barbara Pease,Allan Pease

The way we move our bodies can reveal a lot about what we are feeling or thinking at any given moment. These nonverbal cues are often subtle and can go unnoticed by many people, but they play a crucial role in understanding the emotions and thoughts of others. For example, a person's eyebrows may raise slightly when they are surprised or intrigued by something. This small movement can indicate a shift in their emotions or thoughts, even if they do not verbally express it. Similarly, a person may cross their arms tightly when they are feeling defensive or closed off from a conversation. These subtle shifts in body language can be powerful indicators of someone's internal state. By paying attention to these cues, we can gain valuable insights into how others are truly feeling, even when their words may say otherwise. It is important to remember that body language is a form of communication that is just as important as verbal language, if not more so in some cases. In order to accurately interpret these cues, it is essential to pay close attention to the context in which they occur. Different body language signals can have different meanings depending on the situation and the individual. By taking into account the overall context of a person's body language, we can better understand their emotions and thoughts.
  1. Being mindful of subtle shifts in body language can help us to improve our communication skills and deepen our understanding of those around us. By honing our ability to read these nonverbal cues, we can become more empathetic and effective communicators in all areas of our lives.
