133: The Importance of Nonverbal Communication in Your Relationship

133: The Importance of Nonverbal Communication in Your Relationship

Did you know that well over half of the communication you have in your relationship is nonverbal? We all know that feeling when your partner 'needs to talk'. They may touch your shoulder, or their tone or facial expressions change. These are nonverbal communications that are most recognizable, but there are hundreds of nonverbal cues we give and receive in our relationship each day. The way in which we give positive or negative nonverbal communication is a key to creating a successful relationship. Listen to today's episode to learn more about the importance of nonverbal communication in your relationship. In this episode we discuss relationship advice topics that include: Learn how nodding, leaning and tilting with your head can create positive non-verbal cues for your partner. Understand the gender differences in how men and women give and receive non-verbal communication. Why the tone of your voice can be a critical component of successful non-verbal communication. How reading body language can affect your relationship. Why something as simple as placing your hand on your partners shoulder can help your relationship. And much more! Vanessa Van Edwards is a published best selling author and behavioral investigator. Vanessa is lead investigator at her human behavior research lab, the Science of People. She designs original research experiments to crack the code of human behavior. Her unique work has been featured on NPR, the Wall Street Journal, the Today Show and USA Today.
