I’ve observed this myself and few of my colleagues also told me that whenever I’m too engrossed in studying a topic or working on something, I become so clumsy and messy. Like yawning, streching weirdly, making random expressions, shaking my legs nervously, getting too lost in my own thoughts..
For example, if I’m sitting quietly and thinking about something funny, I subconsciously smile, Whereas I would have liked to maintain a Poker face.
Although in social situations like parties and gatherings, I am able to present myself elegantly and gracefully but its because I’m actively trying to act and portray myself like that. What I want is to be subconsciously unmessy, unclumsy and graceful.
Edit- I’m a male and my colleagues told me this just to gave me constructive feedback. It isnt toxic pressure or something.

Me too my brother always tell me Im clumsy, I think because of the lack of experience in any work?

Fuuuuck lemme tell you something!!! Who gives a damn I find it absolutely hilarious when I think of something funny and catch myself smiling it makes me so happy … life’s not about trying to be “cool” that’s just who you are, EMBRACE IT
There is nothing graceless about what you’re doing. Relax. It’s OK.
OP, just a guess, are you a woman?
You don’t need to police the way you look all the time. Let yourself exist – that includes yawning, stretching weirdly, shaking your leg, etc. when you’re concentrating.
Tai-chi/Chi-gong. You’ll be amazed if you give yourself to it for a whie. Promise.
