Carmine does a great job of a fast interview getting practical applications for using body language in any setting. I see ways to positively use this with my kids, wife, colleagues, new acquaintances, and old friends.
Tips like how to approach women differently than men. How to use posture to convey sincerity and interest. Even how a quick touch can make a connection that would take three hours to create in normal interaction.
If you want to quickly convey to someone that they are welcome and wanted shake their hand with both of your hands, using your secondary hand to quickly and lightly grasp their wrist, forearm, or shoulder. Each getting more personal as you go up the arm. I intend to experiment with this and see what kind of reactions I get.
