Sending and receiving silent gestures on a constant basis is the regular and unconscious practice during general interactions. This demonstrates that all the non-verbal behaviors of an individual during the general conversations such as the appearance, way of talking, sitting, eye contact, hand contact and various others prove to send powerful and effective messages. Besides, the non-verbal message communication still continues even if the group stops talking or is silent (Calero 2005).

Non-verbal communication has not only proved to be effective in general conversations but specific conversations also rely on Non-verbal communication most of the time. It has been analyzed that nonverbal communication acts as a primary and essential source in creating the first impression, as clothing, gesture, and the way a person greets play a vital role in common situations that not only lead to initiation to specific conversation but also helps strengthening and intensifying it (Wood 2009).

In specific conversations for instance like a teacher-student interaction during the class lecture, postures become pivotal because it communicates a variety of messages. It normally helps the teacher determine degree of attention, concentration, interest or involvement from the student and the level of likeness of the students towards the teacher (Wood 2009).

Nonverbal communication has also been considered as a more effective method for specific interaction in comparison to verbal communication because this natural process facilitates the individual to express and broadcasts their true sentiments and intentions with respect to the particular incident or situation at the same time, the person gets to know the feelings of others as well through their response and reactions (Wood 2009).

Considering the example of a personal relationship of husband and wife, if a husband gets late in coming, the wife on many instances does not say anything but her actions communicate what she has to say. This can be elucidated from the example that upon being late the husband greets the wife with the same emotions with which the husband greets everyday but does not receive a good response from the wife. She keeps her busy with the kitchen work and does not pay any attention to her husband. Her mood, silent treatment and unspoken communication spells out that she is angry and nothing is fine. In this case, verbal communication can never prove to be effective to the extent non-verbal was (Wood 2009).

Considering the third aspect of non-verbal communication that is client-counselor relationship, and the primary aspect that is required with this relationship is trust and clarity with emotions and sentiments. Looking at this element of the relationship, non-verbal communication is alleged to be the most effectual approach. Since the non-verbal communication comprehensively enables the counselor and client to realize that the other person is communicating in a truthful manner through the way one listens, looks, and moves. Since the client-counselor relationship is a two way communication, hence, it also helps the individual determine if the other person was clearly listening to the first one or not (Trusty 2002).

This denotes that when your nonverbal gestures and other pointers match up with the verbal communication, it is likely to increase trust, clarity, and relationship with each other, as this would not have been possible only with the verbal communication process. While on the other side, non-verbal communication can also lead to the development of tension, mistrust, and confusion if the communication is not in a clear and open style (Trusty 2002).

Eye contact in this kind of relationship is also of paramount value due to the reason that visual sense plays a dominant part in the nonverbal communication process. The level of eye contact maintained in the client-counselor relationship signifies the degree of interest, confidence, trust, hostility, and various other emotions. In addition, eye contact also helps not only in maintaining the proper flow of conversation but also for measuring the response and reaction of the other person (Trusty 2002).

At many occasions in the client-counselor relationship, it has been observed and witnessed that the verbal communication does not match the body language of the person who is trying to convey his message due to various reasons. However, the observations expose the fact that the listener opt to believe the non-verbal aspect of the communication instead of going on words and verbal communication. This behavior has been monitored in most of the cases because for the listener, the true...

Facial expressions, gestures, posture, eye contact, touch, physical space, and tone of voice are few of the universal approaches used in the non-verbal communication. However, it is the non-verbal communication or the body language of the person that is the most powerful and effective tool of contact over verbal communication. This is predominantly due to the reason that it facilitates the individual to create a strong bonding with others, express in an open, precise and clear manner and ultimately construct enduring relationships.
