"Twisting the bulb"

Bend your arm at the elbow and raise your hand to face level. Imagine holding a fragile object with your fingers and screwing it into an imaginary ceiling.

When to use. When you want to draw the attention of the interlocutor to small, but especially important, in your opinion, details.

"Italian waiter"

Gather your fingers in a bun near the chin and "shoot" the hand at the interlocutor, opening the palm, along with the main argument.

When to use. Moving a point of view. For greater effect, you can include not only the brush, but also the hand.

"Lord of the Waves"

Put both hands forward and, as you speak, slowly draw waves from top to bottom with them.

When to use. Explaining complex, complex, multi-level things. There is a great chance to hypnotize the audience.

"Planting ideas"

Imagine that you are taking out sprouts from the loose earth: put your fingers together with a pinch, carefully out a new idea from the “earth” and raise it to the level of the interlocutor's chest.

When to use. Introducing new facts to the audience. For persuasiveness, you can open your palm at the top point, holding a fresh fluttering thought on it.

"Slap the palm"

Raise one hand, palm up and loudly strike it with the back of the other. You can use it several times in a row.

When to use. Repeating your own arguments, if the interlocutor did not immediately accept them. And again and again and again.
