I have been interested in body language for some time and have not dug into it as deeply as I should have. I'm intuitive and read people before others around them do. It has helped me along the way. I loooove reading paranormal and empath stories. Great post!!! Hugs, JJ Thanks for that body language link!

This means that I miss a lot of details and the body language of the person. I like the idea of mirroring someone's actions and seeing how I feel in the same stance. I did the shoulder hunch, arms crossed and frown and WOW, I got the feeling. I'm going to try to mimic more often and be more aware. Thanks for the post!

I am working on balancing that out, I focus so much on the other person that I miscount my needs. I never realized how draining it was until I thought about my typical day. It's quite alarming. I wish I knew I had to balance it more. Others seem to do it so well. :-) I am extremely empathetic, so much so that I lose myself in the process.
