During A Meeting Or Media Interview, What Are Some Common Body Language Signs Of Discomfort Or Nervousness?

During a meeting or media interview, what are some common body language signs of discomfort or nervousness?
Closing off your body windows, self comfort cues, getting small.

What kind of body language exudes confidence and approachability in an interview or meeting? Prepare. Find out if you are going to be standing or sitting and if you’re sitting whether you will be on a stool, chair or sofa. Ideally you want your body to be relaxed and open. You want to show your confidence by taking up space, leaning backwards and forwards as the interview or meeting goes on rather than freezing or planting in one fixed pose.

Julia Roberts On Aging

Julia Robert's on looking young. I have written quite a few posts on attractiveness and looking young and I have a program I give with a fellow speaker, Gail Geary, on "Always Looking Young", so I was so pleased at the wise words Julia Roberts shared on aging and beauty in this months Elle magazine. I love Elle's interviews and articles so it was particularly nice to have an interview with an actress over 40. Here is how other news sites quoted the article.

When it comes to Botox, Julia Roberts says the answer is "no."

And she's not much of a fan of cosmetic surgery either.

The 42-year-old actress told Elle magazine she thinks it's unfortunate that "we live in such a panicked, dysmorphic society where women don't even give themselves a chance to see what they'll look like as older persons."

That outlook seems to be a rare commodity in Hollywood. Actors over 40 who have had no work done are very rare, according to the Los Angeles Times.
