1) What is nonverbal communication?

Nonverbal communication is the

transmission of messages or signals through a nonverbal platform
such as eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture, and the
distance between two individuals. This form of communication is
characterized by multiple channels and scholars argue that
nonverbal communication can convey more meaning than verbal
communication.Some scholars state that most people trust forms of
nonverbal communication over verbal communication.

2) What is facial expression?

Humans can adopt a facial expression

voluntarily or involuntarily, and the neural mechanisms responsible
for controlling the expression differ in each case. Voluntary facial
expressions are often socially conditioned and follow a cortical
route in the brain. Conversely, involuntary facial expressions are
believed to be innate and follow a subcortical route in the brain.
Facial recognition is often an emotional
experience for the brain and the amygdala  is highly involved in the
recognition process.
3) What is eye contact?
Eye contact occurs when two animals look at
each other's eyes at the same time. In human beings, eye contact is
a form of nonverbal communication and is thought to have a large
influence on social behavior. Coined in the early to mid-1960s, the
term came from the West to often define the act as a meaningful
and important sign of confidence, respect, and social
communication. The customs and significance of eye contact vary
between societies, with religious and social differences often
altering its meaning greatly.
4) What is gestures?
A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication in
which visible bodily actions communicate particular messages,
either in place of speech or together and in parallel with words.
Gestures include movement of the hands, face, or other parts of the
body. Gestures differ from physical non-verbal communication that
does not communicate specific messages, such as purely expressive
displays, proxemics, or displays of joint attention.

5) What is postures?

A posture is a particular position

formed by the body. Traditionally, postures were used in a spiritual
 practice for seated meditation. A posture was intended to be
comfortable and easy to hold for an extended period of time.
In modern Hatha yoga, a much wider
variation of postures are now practiced to bring about an array of
health benefits, in addition to improving the practitioner’s ability to
sit and meditate.

Posture may also be referred to

as pose or asana in Sanskrit.
