Body language for blind persons

I am often asked if a blind person is able to use body language and my answer is a definite yes. However, logic will dictate that we are unable to interpret body language.

I speak for me and here is my take on this subject. My parents were wonderful teachers and taught me very early in life how to use body language. They tutored me in the rudiments of head movements for positive and negative agreements, hand gestures, and a bit more. When I first got vision, I learned quickly from others around me and spent countless hours looking at what others did.

Today, and without very much vision, I can use all of my lessons to continue with my body language to help me tell others how I feel and what I am thinking.

I’m Donna J. Jodhan wishing you a terrific day and encouraging you to go out there and share my thoughts with others. Visit me at www.sterlingcreations.ca whenever you have a moment.
