can anyone recommend some? i just finished chapter 7 of "body language" by julius fast. though the writing is a bit dated, its eye opening. there is a lot of shit going on with body language; primal shit that i for one am not really aware of on a conscious level, but which really struck accord when i read that book.
for a while now, i have been intrigued by body language that occurs on the train. i guess you could say i'm new to riding the train; my home town doesn't have one to speak of even though its a small end metropolis (too many hills, and rivers). now that i've moved, the train is part of my daily life. i find it really interesting how different people carry themselves while riding the train. i have had staring battles with men (sometimes people stare at me because i'm obviously foreign) and iois from girls (one case involved a girl staring at me and then licking her lips). it commonly talked about on this forum that most of communication is non verbal. however, i find it really difficult to be aware of it in situations that involve conversation because i'm so much more focused on what people are saying (i want to change this and welcome advice on how to do it). the train, however, offers a situation in which most people are not engaged in conversation, so their communication is entirely non verbal and since you are not engaged either, you can study them.
does anyone have any insight about key things to do with body language? this is an area of my game that i really wanna tackle. anyone who's read "the game" know's the power of style's friend "the natural" who's secret seemed to be body language. i'd be especially interested in what those who ride the train do to transmit body language while they are on it (for example taking up space, not crossing arms, etc. i'm interested in where you hold your gaze?)
thanx for the help
