You have no idea how happy this makes me. I always have my arms crossed in meetings and usually tell people Im not defensive - just really listening. Now research proves it!! Quoted from the article: Don’t Cross Me Its one of the biggest myths in body language, that crossed arms mean were feeling defensive or that were holding something back. “It’s not true. It’s a myth, but it’s perceived that way in the office,” said Driver. In fact, when you cross your arms, youre using both sides of your brain — the creative and numbers-driven parts. “Research shows you’re 30 percent more likely to stay on a difficult task with crossed arms, so during brainstorming, it’s actually a good idea to cross arms,” Driver said.
