Examples
Meta-Postures are used in Live Action Roleplaying Games. One example of such a posture is that of holding your arms crossed over your chest which in the Mind's Eye Theatre rules show that the vampire you are playing is obfuscated. Another example can be found in the Avatar System[1] where players make a hand symbol to indicate that a discussion is taking place outside the game[2].
