Great post, Latasha!
In the event of your intimate space being invading, what exactly occurs that makes your space feel invaded?
You proposed an interesting thought, for me to consider. In the event of decoding nonverbal cues, one’s gestures may definitely be misinterpreted. Last year, I went to see my physician of 4 years. We have developed a wonderful relationship, which allows us to chit chat about personal issues, too hilarious encounters. In the event of seeing her, she indicated that I needed another supply of medication. In turn, I told her, I had enough medicine for another month. In brief, we went back and forth verbally, about how much medicine I should have and how much medicine I actually had. I imagined that the only way I could

    Chitra Divakaruni Speech

    In a world full of different people and different things, how can we still seem to be connected? Dr. Chitra Divakaruni, author of One Amazing Thing, was able to express this to every incoming first year student at Appalachian State University. During the short time Dr. Divakaruni was on stage, she discussed many different things, from the book that she wrote for all incoming Appalachian State students, to the times that that she has experienced conflict in her life. Dr. Divakaruni’s speech connects to the course ‘Conflict and Peace’ because she discussed Hurricane Katrina, she gave details about a lady she came in contact with that had been abused in some way, and her book that she wrote is nothing shy of a being strictly about conflict and resolution. I will be using stories told by Dr. Divakaruni, and her book One Amazing Thing to support my thoughts.…

    Parietal Lobe Study

    It’s understandable why individuals get weary when visiting relatives undergoing neurological rehabilitation; it’s difficult to predict how they will react and often innocent intentions can be met with a harsh scolding. However, a new study suggests that a simple change in body language can have radical effects on the responses you receive and offers new rehabilitation options for patients. Despite impairment of the left visual field in patients with right parietal lobe damage, what is considered their blindside may in fact not be as blind as initially expected. Seeming uncomfortable may inadvertently lead to fearful body language being displayed and increase the likelihood of detection, regardless of the position in relation to the patient.…

    Breaking Social Norms

    In many different societies we all contain social norms. Fundamentally, social norms are defined as “the rules of behavior that are considered acceptable in a group or society” (YourDictionary). In other words, norms are the written or unwritten rules of behavior that we follow in everyday life. Some norms could be an effortless gesture such as “holding a door for an individual”. But other social norms are more strictly held to in certain situations than in others; for instance, slapping a stranger can lead to bad altercations other than dealing with the cops (if some would say).…

    In the setting of modern healthcare, it is vitally important to be able to interact with an ever-increasing diverse population. The world in general and the United States in particular has become perceptibly transient as people move about the globe for employment and family matters. Because of this, Healthcare workers have to ensure that they are up to date and well versed in the applications available to them so that they can more effectively communicate with people of all ethnic backgrounds in order to be able to administer quality healthcare. Recommendations for improvement of culturally competent care in the clinical setting should encompass the health care provider’s sensitivity to the needs and perceptions of those with different cultural backgrounds than our own.…

    I greatly enjoyed listening to Sonia’s speech. I loved that she started with the cultural significance of the ring. This made the whole story more engaging, interesting, and significant to me.

    After viewing the Amy Cuddy and History channel videos I learned what I already knew from actual work experiences about nonverbal communications. Body language is the real deal, and nonverbal communication sometimes can reveal much more than the words people say. I come to this conclusion from the twenty five years of working in law enforcement as a police officer and detective in Washington D.C Throughout my career I have interacted with every different social, economic, and intellectual level in one form or another. The one thing that every human has is common is the things they will tell you willing or not willing through nonverbal communication.…

    Here in the United States, everything for the most part is taken at face value with little emphasis on nonverbal messages. This is changing as the country begins to recognize the different cultural practices that make up our society. As a nurse, my place of work is completely lower context with no intended hidden meanings behind our daily conversations with the patients. Sometimes, however, if the patient is about to hear terminal news, they can quickly pick up on the unsaid message by the healthcare provider, through body language. When providing medical care, it is important to be direct and use lower-context communication technique because the patients need to know all the information pertaining to their care so that they can make informed…

    and then they finally understood. One of my friends who I guess you could say is fluent in sign language proceeded to ask me things using that method of communication. Meanwhile everybody else looked severely confused about what was occurring around them. Eventually after using more gestures they all slowly caught on to what I was telling them which was that I was upset with my friend because of something he had done. After I was done with the thirty minutes of no communicating verbally or in a written manner I found out that a parental figure was watching the entire exchange between my friends and I. When I asked them whether they could tell what was wrong and how long it took them to figure it out they had said that it took them no more than ten minutes to understand that I was upset and whom that emotion was being directed towards.…
