    Nonverbal communication conveys messages through eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture, and proximity. It is made up of multiple channels and some scholars believe it can communicate more than verbal communication alone. Facial expressions can be voluntary or involuntary, with voluntary expressions being socially conditioned and involuntary expressions being innate. Eye contact is a form of nonverbal communication that influences social behavior and its meaning varies between cultures. Gestures are bodily movements that communicate specific messages, either with or without words. Posture refers to the position of the body and was traditionally used in meditation to find a comfortable position that could be held for an extended period.

    1) What is nonverbal communication?

    Nonverbal communication is the


    transmission of messages or signals through a nonverbal platform
    such as eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture, and the
    distance between two individuals. This form of communication is
    characterized by multiple channels and scholars argue that
    nonverbal communication can convey more meaning than verbal
    communication.Some scholars state that most people trust forms of
    nonverbal communication over verbal communication.

    2) What is facial expression?

    Humans can adopt a facial expression


    voluntarily or involuntarily, and the neural mechanisms responsible
    for controlling the expression differ in each case. Voluntary facial
    expressions are often socially conditioned and follow a cortical
    route in the brain. Conversely, involuntary facial expressions are
    believed to be innate and follow a subcortical route in the brain.
    Facial recognition is often an emotional
    experience for the brain and the amygdala  is highly involved in the
    recognition process.
    3) What is eye contact?
    Eye contact occurs when two animals look at
    each other's eyes at the same time. In human beings, eye contact is
    a form of nonverbal communication and is thought to have a large
    influence on social behavior. Coined in the early to mid-1960s, the
    term came from the West to often define the act as a meaningful
    and important sign of confidence, respect, and social
    communication. The customs and significance of eye contact vary
    between societies, with religious and social differences often
    altering its meaning greatly.
    4) What is gestures?
    A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication in
    which visible bodily actions communicate particular messages,
    either in place of speech or together and in parallel with words.
    Gestures include movement of the hands, face, or other parts of the
    body. Gestures differ from physical non-verbal communication that
    does not communicate specific messages, such as purely expressive
    displays, proxemics, or displays of joint attention.

    5) What is postures?

    A posture is a particular position


    formed by the body. Traditionally, postures were used in a spiritual
    practice for seated meditation. A posture was intended to be
    comfortable and easy to hold for an extended period of time.
    In modern Hatha yoga, a much wider
    variation of postures are now practiced to bring about an array of
    health benefits, in addition to improving the practitioner’s ability to
    sit and meditate.

    Posture may also be referred to


    as pose or asana in Sanskrit.
