    Body language is the conscious and unconscious ways that people communicate through movements, postures, and facial expressions. It includes kinesics (body movements), oculesics (eye contact), facial expressions, gestures, posture, proxemics (use of space), haptics (touch), paralanguage (voice qualities), and chronemics (use of time). Mastering elements of non-verbal communication like maintaining eye contact, using gestures, and having a confident posture can enhance the impact of verbal messages. Non-verbal cues are important to understand and use effectively in presentations.
