"Your body language shapes who you are"
Amy Cuddy at TED
Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we
see ourselves.
Social psychologist Amy Cuddy shows how "power posing" —
standing in a posture of confidence, even when we don't feel confident —
can affect testosterone and cortisol levels in the brain, and might
even have an impact on our chances for success.
Amy Cuddy's
research on body language reveals that we can change other people's
perceptions — and even our own body chemistry — simply by changing body
positions.
This talk was presented at an official TED Conference.

Amy
Joy Casselberry Cuddy is an American social psychologist known for her
research on stereotyping and discrimination, emotions, power, nonverbal
behavior, and the effects of social stimuli on hormone levels. She is
Associate Professor of Business Administration in the Negotiation,
Organizations & Markets Unit at Harvard Business School.[1] Her
TEDTalk, delivered at TEDGlobal 2012 in Edinburgh, Scotland, and posted
in October 2012, has been viewed more than 16 million times and ranks
among the top 15 most-viewed TEDTalks.
Cuddy studies the origins
and outcomes of how people judge and influence each other. She has
conducted experimental and correlational research on stereotyping and
discrimination against various groups (e.g., Asian Americans, elderly
people, Latinos, working mothers), the causes and consequences of
feeling ambivalent emotions (e.g., envy and pity), nonverbal behavior
and communication, and hormonal responses to social stimuli. Amy Cuddy
was listed #1 in Time Magazine's list of "Game Changers, ...innovators
and problem-solvers that are inspiring change in America".
She often speaks on the psychology of power, influence, nonverbal communication, and prejudice.
Language is the human capacity for acquiring and using complex systems
of communication, and a language is any specific example of such a
system.Body language refers to various forms of nonverbal communication,
wherein a person may reveal clues as to some unspoken intention or
feeling through their physical behaviour. These behaviours can include body posture, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements.
Body language also varies depending on the culture and most behaviors
are not universally accepted. Although this article focuses on
interpretations of human body language, also animals use body language as a communication mechanism. Body language is typically subconscious behaviour, and is therefore considered distinct from sign language, which is a fully conscious and intentional act of communication.
Body language may provide clues as to the attitude or state of mind of a person. For example, it may indicate aggression, attentiveness, boredom, a relaxed state, pleasure, amusement, and intoxication.

Body language is significant to communication and relationships. It
is relevant to management and leadership in business and also in places
where it can be observed by many people. It can also be relevant to some
outside of the workplace. It is commonly helpful in dating, mating, in
family settings, and parenting. Although body language is non-verbal or
non-spoken, it can reveal much about your feelings and meaning to others
and how others reveal their feelings toward you. Body language signals
happen on both a conscious and unconscious level.
TED
is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of
short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a
conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and
today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global
issues — in more than 100 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx
events help share ideas in communities around the world.
Our Mission: Spread ideasTED
is a global community, welcoming people from every discipline and
culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. We believe
passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and,
ultimately, the world. On TED.com, we're building a clearinghouse of
free knowledge from the world's most inspired thinkers — and a community
of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other, both online and
at TED and TEDx events around the world, all year long.
In fact,
everything we do — from our TED Talks videos to the projects sparked by
the TED Prize, from the global TEDx community to the TED-Ed lesson
series — is driven by this goal: How can we best spread great ideas?
TED is owned by a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation. Our agenda is to make great ideas accessible and spark conversation.
