Body language helps us a lot. Sometimes it may increase your confidence. How should you use your body language properly?
Practice smiling.
Smiling not only makes you more popular, but also improves your health. Smiling slows the heart and relaxes the body. It can improve your ability to finish your work. It can also trick you into feeling happy, even when you feel sad.
Pay attention to posture.
Good posture is necessary for avoiding back and neck pain, preventing muscle( 肌肉) aches, and keeping your bones and joints( 关节) in proper shape. Good posture also reflects a confident manner to others. Stand up straight with your shoulders back and your head held high and you will look self-confident.
Have a strong handshake.
A strong handshake is a common sign of confidence, and everyone should have one. Whether or not you feel confident, a strong handshake will lift your feelings and make others see you as more confident.
Dress for confidence.
Dressing confidently is more important than being in style. It’s about feeling good and being self-confident in all situations. It’s also about sending the right message to the people you are with. You can gain your confidence about yourself when you dress properly.
Practice eye contact.
A proper direct look into others suggests you’re truthful and friendly. It shows a sense of confidence and makes the other person feel more positive( 积极的) and connected to you. However, too much of the body language might send the signal you’re unfriendly or maybe even a little strange.
