Physiological barriers in communication are obstacles that affect effective communication due to the physical condition of the sender or receiver. These barriers may result from personal discomfort caused by ill-health, poor eyesight, or hearing difficulties. Some examples of physiological barriers include:

• Poor Listening Skills: This can be caused by hearing impairments, difficulty distinguishing sounds or speech, or inability to hear soft or high-pitched sounds.

• Information Overload: This can be caused by poor retention, where human memory is limited, and the brain only remembers the information it thinks will be needed in the future.

• Inattention: This can be caused by distractions such as background noise, poor lighting, uncomfortable sitting, unhygienic room, or an environment that is too hot or cold.

• Emotions: This can be caused by psychological factors such as misperception, filtering, distrust, unhappy emotions, and peoples state of mind.

To overcome physiological barriers in communication, it is essential to identify the barriers and take appropriate measures. For example, using written communication can reduce distortions and misunderstandings when communicating important information. Additionally, it is important to create a comfortable environment that is conducive to effective communication, such as ensuring good lighting, comfortable chairs, and a quiet room.
