What is a Micro Expression?
A micro expression is a brief, involuntary facial expression shown on the face of humans according to emotions experienced. Unlike regular facial expressions, it is difficult to fake micro expressions. Micro expressions express the seven universal emotions: disgust, anger, fear, sadness, happiness, surprise, and contempt.

Paul Ekman has done extensive research on micro expressions. In the 1990s, Ekman expanded his list of basic emotions, including a range of positive and negative emotions, not all of which are encoded in facial muscles. These emotions are amusement, contentment, embarrassment, excitement, guilt, pride, relief, satisfaction, pleasure, and shame. They are very brief in duration, lasting only 1/25 to 1/15 of a second.

Each Enneagram Type overuses some expressions more than others. These relate to the core fears and defense strategies of the types.
