The Six Secrets of Attractive Body Language

FaceHave an animated face and make smiling a part of your regular repertoire. Make sure you flash your teeth.

GesturesBe expressive but don't overdo it. Keep your fingers closed when you gesture, your hands below chin level and avoid arm or feet crossing.

Head Movement

Use Triple Nods when talking and Head Tilt when listening. Keep your chin up

Eye Contact

Give the amount of eye contact that makes everyone feel comfortable. Unless looking at others is a cultural no-no, lookers gain more credibility than non-lookers.

PostureLean forward when listening, stand straight when speaking.

Territory

Stand as close as you feel comfortable. If the other person moves back, don't step forward again.
