When we walk all the time looking at the ground, we may feel anxious and uneasy. And we express helpless by hunching. In order to get along with others or show our kindness, we smile at others. In our daily life, we also greet others with a handshake, hug even kiss.
As far as I am concerned, it is useful to be able to understand people’s body language. It could help us build a friendly relationship with others.
