Body Language Signs That Have a Hidden Meaning

Hands behind your back, or just back to basics? Clasping your hands behind your back can be a sign of a range of emotions, including boredom, anxiety, and even anger. When we’re bored, we may adopt a posture that suggests disinterest or disengagement.

When we’re anxious or nervous, we may adopt a posture that suggests insecurity or self-doubt. And when we’re angry, we may adopt a posture that suggests aggression or dominance. All of this can be translated by the way we clasp our hands behind our back.
