from The Highly Sensitive Return

🎙️ A Special Double-Feature Teaching SeriesThis episode is a little different from my usual meditations. It is the first of two teaching episodes created to help you understand your sensitive system more deeply.In Part 1, I’m taking you into the science behind high sensitivity—what it actually means, why your nervous system may experience the world differently, and why your sensitivity is not a weakness or personality flaw.If you’ve ever wondered why you feel everything so deeply, why busy environments leave you exhausted, or why you seem to notice things that others don’t, this lesson is for you.Together, we’ll explore:• What high sensitivity actually is• The science behind Sensory Processing Sensitivity• Why your nervous system may process more information• Why sensitive people can become overwhelmed more easily• The evolutionary purpose of sensitivity• What brain research tells us about the sensitive systemUnderstanding your sensitivity can be the beginning of letting go of the belief that there is something wrong with you—and learning to see that your system may simply need a different kind of support.In Part 2: Meet Your Sensitive System, I’ll guide you through the HSP-R Assessment and help you understand the six different areas in which your sensitivity may express itself.More Helpful Tools for Sensitive Souls 🌀 Meet Your Sensitive System: Take the official HSP-R Assessment 🌀 Looking for more 1:1 support with me?
