Usually, you can tell what a person is thinking or feeling just by the way they're carrying themselves, how they're standing, and other nonverbal cues. This helps you quite a bit when it comes to communicating with other people, especially in trickier, more complicated situations.

Of course, communication itself is a complicated thing, and while you're pretty good at reading the signs, you could always have a little more practice. One great way to do this is to watch highly-rated drama films or TV shows with especially talented actors. Pay attention to how they act and react to the people around them, and take note of the small ways they carry themselves. That way, you can learn and test yourself without the stakes of real life.

What to watch out for:<\/b> You\u2019re great at reading body language, but some people might use that against you. Never assume what someone else is thinking.

And we get it! Human communication is complex and often pretty tricky, especially when it comes to communication that doesn't involve any words. In a perfect world, everyone would just say what they're thinking. But everything we don't say is part of the beauty, isn't it?

All the same, that beauty doesn't make it any easier! Luckily, there are ways to get better at reading body language. One great way is to watch highly-rated drama films or TV shows with especially talented actors.
