Try standing like a superhero for a few seconds before you start. Research shows that standing like a hero makes you feel-- and act-- like one! Humans use words to communicate, but we also use our bodies to send messages. We may shrug our shoulders to show we don't care, or open our eyes wide in surprise, or give the thumbs up to show we approve of something. But did you know that giving the thumbs up in Greece is pretty rude?
