Please do BOTH of the readings for this section and watch the two videos on the schedule.
Make four columns on a piece of paper. In the first column, write down three body parts/ways of being. For example, you could list things like legs, nose, hair, and/or you could list things like how I talk, my walk, etc. No judgment, just list.
In the second column, list ALL of your feelings related to each of the items in column one. Step away for a few minutes.
In the third column, look at the first and second columns, and try to determine where you got the messages that contributed to your feelings/beliefs about your body. Write them down and share them in the post.
Lastly, in the fourth column, go back through some of the theories you read for today and choose at least two that you think relate. Explain this.
You can share your chart in the post if you wish, or you can choose to write about it instead. Once you have done all of the exercises with the chart answer the following questions: In what ways does your embodied communication comply with the command performance? Are there any ways you have refused a command performance? How would you explain your embodied communication using theories from the texts?
