Тело как улика Татьяна Миганова Семь дней, 30 ноября-6 декабря, №49, 2009
Знаете ли вы, что ваше тело умеет говорить? Причем независимо от ваших желаний. Ученые доказали, что как бы человек не стремился скрыть свои эмоции, тело будет красноречивее слов и расскажет обо всем.
Признаемся самим себе, наши позы, движения, жесты часто сообщают собеседнику совсем не то, что мы пытаемся донести до него словами. Именно они являются ключом к пониманию чувств, которые испытывает человек. К примеру, раскрытые ладони по направлению к собеседнику – это сигнал искренности. Ладони вверх – жест покорности. Ладонь вниз означает авторитет и властность. Если человек что-то скрывает, он предпочтет держать руки в карманах. А если он нервничает или настроен негативно, то, скорее всего, скрестит руки на груди.
В Но если руки еще можно чем-то занять, то что же делать с лицом? Как выясняется, не многое. По мнению психолога Пола Экмана, прототипа главного героя популярного сериала «Обмани меня», добившегося известности благодаря своим исследованиям мимики, движение мышц лица не связано с сознанием. «Они срабатывают непроизвольно, выдавая не только чувства человека, но и малейшие движения души». А потому в поисках решения важных для вас вопросов не пренебрегайте личными встречами, ведь исследования показали, что люди чаще лгут по телефону. Если ваш собеседник редко моргает или взгляд его бегает по сторонам (вправо-вверх, затем влево-вниз), то он говорит неправду. Кроме того, человек, который врет, на подсознательном уровне старается отгородиться, спрятаться от своей лжи, поэтому он пытается закрыть руками глаза, рот, начинает трогать нос. Например, во время выступления перед Большим Жюри в рамках разбирательства отношений с Моникой Левински Билл Клинтон касался носа 26 раз. О чем может рассказать поза человека во время переговоров? Известные исследователи Джерард Ниренберг и Генри Калеро установили, что если вы умеете читать язык тела, то вы сможете не только понять, что ваш собеседник думает о ходе переговоров или предупредить конфликт, но и добиться значительных скидок. И хотя человечество привыкло разговаривать и вести переговоры на тысячах разных языков, у них есть один универсальный язык. Это – язык тела.
