Sometimes I have to use strong language to draw peoples attention. "How to Detect a Liar", just sounds better than "How to Detect Whether Someone is Anxious." :) Yes establishing a baseline is extremely important and I should have touched on that. I personally use eye tracking a lot during conversation so that I can best present ideas in the persons chosen representational systems. Thank you for taking the time to point out what I missed.

Having interviewed liars for 30 years I would hesitate to be quick to label someone as a liar. They may show evidence of anxiety such as on a first date, a job interview or sales presentation as a customer. Anxiety will come across in most of the body language you describe. You must establish a baseline and determine sudden departures. Eye contact, eye tracking and blink rates are not always a good indicator. You had some useful tips on spotting deception.

You sort of answered your own comment when you stated you start using the phrase "to be honest", after you have been less honest previously. That is exactly when most people use the "to be honest" phrase. I appreciate you taking the time to comment on my little blog. Thanks These are just very helpful guides.

However I disagree with the second last section re "The best way most people don't know about". I use "To be honest" and "actually" sometimes but not to lie. It is used when I'm being more forthright/honest. Mostly to confess to something which I lied about previously (whether deliberately or by omission). Very interesting article.
