proxemic zones

Proxemic zones refer to the different distances people naturally maintain during interactions, which influence comfort and communication. These zones include intimate (close friends or loved ones), personal (friends and acquaintances), social (professional or casual interactions), and public (large groups or audiences). The placement within these zones depends on cultural norms, relationships, and context. Understanding proxemic zones helps us respect personal space, enhance social interactions, and interpret non-verbal cues, making communication more effective and comfortable for everyone involved.
