Practice 1. Why do you think body language is important? Body language is a way we express our feeling and thoughts with our face, hands and our whole bodies. What you think and what you feel is physically expressed by your body. One can read the other's thoughts by their gestures. It can tell us more about others than words. That's why it is important in our life. 2. How does body language help you to communicate? When my family or friends are happy, sad, blue or upset, I am able to sense and read into many things by their body language. Body language attributes actual meaning of how they feel. Hence It helps me communicate with them.
