Good Posture and Body Language

If you have a good posture, you tell a wildly different story with your body, than when you slouch.

Likewise, you reveal things about yourself with how you place your arms and legs.

Are you:

• Open or Closed?
• Confident or Insecure?
• Interested or Bored?
• Dominant or Submissive?
