Emotional Blindness: Enhancing awareness of and interpreting body language

June 9 @ 6:00 pm 7:00 pm

Many Autistics describe having difficulty understanding and articulating the emotions they are feeling as well as interpreting the non-verbal gestures and clues of others while in conversation.

In this interactive workshop, attendees will learn to understand and interpret basic body language, which will help with social and communication skills.

Together, participants will explore some of the most important nonverbal clues, learn how to “read” the actions and reactions of others, and adjust their own body language to appear more positive, engaging and approachable.

Tuesday, June 9
6:00 – 7:00 p.m.
In-person at The Ability Hub (300, 3820 24 Ave NW)
