The sentence sounds like "self esteem" is an object that he is holding in the air.  Maybe:  "He walked away keeping his self esteem intact."  OR: "He walked away trying to keep his self esteem intact."

According to this website about the culture of Laos,touching someone's head there or even reaching past it is considered very rude.\n\nI was unable to find any other mentions of this as a taboo.

Well, think about it this way. \n\nIf somebody holds their head down and they're gazing at the ground, what's the first impression that you get? Probably a pretty dull and unhappy one, no matter how they look.\n\nNow, imagine you meet somebody who makes immediate eye contact with a smile on his face, and he stretches his hand out to you while politely saying, "Hi, I'm John".\n\nThe way we say things and the way we look at people / greet people is the main idea that's going to stick in their head. As a matter of fact, nobody's going to worry about what you look like, they're just going to care about how you approach people and the confidence you have. So really, nobody's 'doomed' to any particular degree of being 'hot' or 'not'... It's all in your attitude that reflects.

The average human head weighs about 7.5% of a person’s body weight. So, if you weigh about 40 kilograms, your head weighs around 3 kilos. If you are a 90-kilogram person, your head weighs about 6.75 kilos.\n\nThere’s a lot in there to make up that mass. Your head has 22 bones — the cranium, which protects the brain, has 8 bones, and the face, 14. So when you get tired of holding your head up high, you know why. It’s heavy!

It means more of a rolling or tumbling head over heels, as in being in love and being swept off you feet.  The person is no longer steady as you are, in standing.  LOL

yes, it is a standard procedure. When a cop is putting a suspect into the back of his / her patrol car, they put their hand on the suspect's head to keep them from (possibly) losing their balance and hitting their head on the car, and either claim police brutality or flat out negligence in an effort to either A) escape the charges against them, or B) sue the department for a lot of $$$. Several members of my family back east are police officers, and I have gone on numerous ride alongs with them and some of their fellow officers, and the procedure is the same.

I think it means someone in your life is amazingly thoughtful and creative.  Don't worry about it so much... just enjoy!

It's a similar thing to saying think with your head not your heart. I think with my brain sometimes, and my heart others, and my tummy others.

I think they are saying that You are thinking about this too much.  You are putting added stress on yourself because you think this way.  Basically that Phrase means you are thinking about the situation differently than most others would.  Therefore those bad thoughts are "In your Head" alone, and not in most others.

the bast wayt o maeout is to grab the other person by the ears and ram your forehead into theirs. Once you have sufficiently stunned them, grab their hair and attempt to grab their tongue with your teeth. If you are able to do this before they headbutt you, you won! 10 points!
