Body language happens at a few evels .
Some are universal standards, some are personal behavioral traits specific to that person or condition.
But general things like defensive or protective stances, where there hands are and how they move while speaking, facial basics like chin tensioning, cheek apples rising , even posture and breathing can all indicate peoples suppressed limbic responses .
It's incredibly fascinating how a trained professional can pick up so much about a person.
Personally , I can see defensiveness, sometimes deception, sometimes bullshit, openness, and sometimes dislike . Aggressive Dominance is always easy, I think anyone can pick up on that .
The trick is not to subconsciously respond to it myself , as your own body language can feed the other person and they can sunconsoisly pick up on it ....it's really tricky stuff .
I wish I understood it better.
