Mark Bowden, Voted The World’s #1 Body Language Expert, on Relationships

How does the world's #1 body language expert use what he knows in his own marriage? Mark Bowden has been voted the #1 Body Language Professional in the world. Born in England and building off an early career as an actor on screen and stage, Mark pioneered nonverbal analysis of human behaviors intended to persuade. His techniques are trusted by business leaders, Fortune 500 companies, politicians, and G7 prime ministers, as well as the millions who have watched his TEDx talk, his Youtube Channel, his media commentary and his appearances with Dr Phil, or read his bestselling books including Winning Body Language, Tame the Primitive Brain, or TRUTH & LIES: What People are Really Thinking. On todays podcast we’re talking about body language in relationships. Does being a body language expert mean that his marriage is all smooth sailing? Not quite. But we start with body language in courtship, talking about dating rituals, the signals we send, and why the prospect of rejection can legitimately feel like death for a man. Mark explains how to identify the baseline behavior of a potential partner, why eye contact confuses the heck out of everyone, and whether so called cheap signals will become less relevant over time. Mark has theories on how the evolution of marriages can be tracked using body language from unabashed mirroring, to lip curling disdain…and how that part might just be the beginning of the actual start of the increasingly elusive…long-term marriage. It’s all in the body.
