Guide to body language part III The return of the deductionist

 So, last time I explained the torso and such, but today we are going to examine the limbs (arms hand and feet) Let's get into it!

Arms

The arms are a tricky one. They're packed with pacifiers. The different ways we can grab or pet our arms are fun to observe. When people grab one arm with the other while looking down is a signal of shame. Grabbing the other arm behind the back is a signal of agitation or that the person is trying to soothe themselves. Nervousness really breaks out in the arms. When you are ashamed, you feel rather naked and you try to conceal your arms and your face. we've all felt the feeling that we can't do shit with our arms when we are in a rather shameful situation.

Crossing the arms

I had to include a little section, because I am actually really big on getting this to you accuarately. "Crossing the arms are a sign of agitation and dislike no matter what." is bullshit. There are two ways you cross your arms: 
1 the self hug
2 the agitation
The main thing differentiating these two are the visibility of the hands. When none of the hands are visible then it is a tight self hug. When a hand(s) is visible, then it is a restricting action, or a sign of agitation.

Hands

When we are in a stressing situation and we don't know how to calm ourselves discreetly, then we start to fidget with our thumbs or fingers. Some even bite their nails etc. I always see this in my classmates and even me. We all do this. 

TIP:

Try to be self aware of your own pacifiers. It is a very good form of practice, because after all we are all people. 

Feet

The concept of a good liar is  being able to mask the sign of lying. Liars are self-conscous, so  they often try maintaining eye contact and such. These masking traits are more apparent around the brain. The further we get from the brain, the more apparent the lying becomes. The feet are the best for this. They are the most honest part of the body. They point towards people we like and away from people we don't.
The bobbling from toe to heel is also a very fun sign. It means impatientness more than agitation. I do this all the time to pass the time. The tapping of the toes are very simmilar and basically mean the same.

This is the end of this series of entries, that I explain body language to you. I hope you enjoyed this series. For feedback about anything, you can contact me on E-mail: adumjane@gmail.com Thank you and 

Happy Deducing!

Essay on Patrick Jane (spoilers)

 Introduction. Patrick Jane is the main protagonist in the 2000's American TV show "The Mentalist" portrayed by Simon Baker. Patrick Jane is the main   protagonist on the show, and with a surprisingly the least morals  on the team of protagonists. We'll get to these later. Patrick Jane works in the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI), but later works for the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). Both as a consultant. Before that, he was a professional mentalist that faked psychic powers to get money out of people. Powers and abilities. Patrick Jane possesses a powerful mental prowess. He is a master of tactics and people, especially knowing them. His observational skills are absolutely exceptional. I myself, am a deductionist/mentalist, so I know about how this works. His observational skills are at the level of the legendary deductionist Sherlock Holmes. I'd even bother to say that Patrick Jane was a better Sherlock Holmes than the Benedict Cumberbatch inc

Intuition & deduction

 Intuition. It's a thing that, if trained generally helps you with getting to know people. Also, looking through them. I'm currently working on the latter. Intuition is nothing that is like deduction, more like guessing. Very good guessing. In the show The Mentalist the protagonist, Patrick Jane uses his power of guesswork?  He uses what is called intuition and a fair bit of deduction. We'll get to that later. Now intuition is something that is quite trainable. I'm on the road of training it. Intuition is something that works subconsciously. You look at a person and it just happens. People often confuse intuition and deduction with presumption, and that is often thought of as "being racist". This slides into the social dilemma of deduction, that I'm probabli going to do an entry on.  How intuition works It basically works like this: You look at a person that is wearing very vibrant coloured clothes. A natural reaction in your brain is "This person mus

Recent experiences

 A few days ago I saw a person that looked interesting to me, and because everyone on the internet was saying to me that I should practice, I started deducing and I didn`t get so much. I found out from attire that he must have been doing something sporty. He had his left hand in his pocket so he left his right, dominant hand to do something else. Lastly, he had some mud on his socks. That meant that he came there with a bike. NOT that it was an older sock because it rained that day. Also, I`ve been watching a lot of youtube on this topic. I also read an essay too from a young woman around my age. One of those youtube videos taught me how to observe a person. Starting from the shoes, going up to the knees then up to the jacket and it`s shoulders, back to the hands and lastly, the face. Then you simply run over the whole person again, from the data you gathered, create three or so theories and from those 1 greater picture of the person. I practice almost everyday but in passing deduction
