Posture is a nonverbal cue, a part of body language, through which we communicate without using words. The way you stand, sit, or orient your body sends messages about your interest or openness, and observers interpret these cues quickly to judge engagement or rejection. Verbal communication involves spoken words, written communication is about text, and digital communication covers online messages; none of these rely on physical stance in the moment. So posture best fits under body language—the nonverbal channel that conveys how interested or available someone appears to others.
