Non-Verbal Communication

Non-verbal communication refers to the ways we convey messages without using words. It includes body language, facial expressions, gestures, posture, eye contact, and even physical space. This form of communication often reveals emotions and attitudes, sometimes even contradicting spoken words. In the context of communication theories, non-verbal cues can enhance or clarify verbal messages, playing a crucial role in understanding and relationships. Scholars suggest that up to 93% of communication is non-verbal, highlighting its importance in conveying context and meaning in human interactions.
