      It's a european thing (not an eastern european thing). It's because of the water. You want the water in the petals not in the paper and so you have to use gravity.

      Searching for that only yields me two search results but good try at advertising an obscure book I guess. Body language experts like Joe Navarro and Mark Bowden are renowned and have written books about the topic which I‘d rather spend my money on than a title by an anonymous author that doesn’t disclose anything about themselves, rendering the legitimacy questionable.

    I remember me fidgeting and covering my hands with my long sleeves on my first day of class. I was sitting in front of my teacher, and he noticed me, announcing to the whole class that my actions meant I was uncomfortable and nervous, which I was clearly not. I am just trying to make myself warm because winter is starting and I am wearing very thin clothes. Which makes me think that not every body language means something. Also, he mentioned my constant eye blinking too much, saying it has a meaning. Well, I am sleepy, so yeah, that's what it means.

    This video is on point. The way you explained microexpressions and non verbals really helped me understand them better-great content.
    I’ve been really curious about how body language reveals underlying emotions, and this video highlights so much of that.
    I recently read a book on Amazon, something about how an old poker player was really good at detecting microexpressions and reading them. I think the title was A Poker Player’s Insights to Read People Like a Book, or maybe it was 'Guide' instead of 'Insights'-I can't remember exactly. But it was such an interesting read! The way it connects poker strategies to understanding people’s body language and intentions is fascinating and it shows that all these things are really not just talk for the wind, they are real if you can really apply them in the real world.

    Growing up in certain environments I can say that I do almost none of these. It’s crazy how much childhood experience can completely change everything about someone. My father is the passive aggressive type, who often guilt trips and then tries to brush it off and then tries to put something on you then brush it off and we’re always being sarcastic. theres mistrust in the relationship, constant lies and a rocky marriage. Picking up on his intentions and what he tries to do to me when he speaks. He uses vague language so I can never really hold something against him without sounding accusatory and angered. I haven’t figured out why, but I end up avoiding communication in every way. Im self aware of everything I say and do. This sounds like an edgy attention grabbing comment but it’s the truth. I don’t react when I find something to be repulsive, painful, hilarious, impressive, scary, or breathtaking. Its like my body is still, and I have to manually forge a reaction that fits what my thoughts were when I saw it so that people don’t think i’m ignoring them or that i’m just a rude person. The only behavior I notice myself doing is wiping sweats palms on my pants. This is all I have to say.

      We are likely very different, but I really feel the same way sometimes. It may be worthwhile to try and get fully tested for ASD, often times this manifests with feelings of disconnectedness and/or self-isolation. Nearly always paired with extremely chronic over processing and an inability to just understand simple “human” communication.

      @@LilB0pete ill look into it. Honestly its not a lack of social awareness or social confusion at all, I just struggle to express my emotions visibly and genuinely. Im well aware or maybe even abnormally aware of my own feelings and analytical of others. This is probably just a weird hobby but i really enjoy investigating and identifying the causes of peoples actions, something about being emotionally knowledgeable brings me satisfaction. I could call myself emotionally intelligent but im only 15 so claiming such things about myself is most likely not 100% true. I also dont have trouble with communications and anxiety, I just struggle to express genuine emotion. Fake stuff is easy

    This just goes to show you how some people can be wrongly identified or accused… Carrying flowers upside down is not indicative of your origin. I carry flowers upside down all the time because I know that you’re supposed to carry them that way. When they’re out of water it helps keep the water in the flowers, not drain down into the stems, so they last longer until you can put them in water again.

      It's nice, because he actually had to use his knowledge for practical purposes so it has to be based in reality unlike some of the "pop-sci like" stuff that makes sense but may be more "theory" than anything else.

    I am not brilliant, but I always found it easy to decipher ones' physical movements. How they sit, stand, walk, run, talk, touch, look. All living creatures emit an energy. Immediately sense it especially in ones' eyes, mouth area. Feel a vibe, tone, mood, and I am always right one way or another. Maybe because I am very creative, musical, sensitive, introspective. Tho', I always carry pepper spray. Never really know anyone energies can change in a heartbeat.
