If you want people to like you more it’s important to learn to use your entire body when communicating. This helps to establish rapport with the person you are interacting with and helps to make them feel comfortable.
What to do: Adopt an open posture, being careful not to cross your legs or arms. When sitting, keep the feet pointed at the person you are speaking to. Nod when saying yes, smile and make use of hand gestures.
