HSP SOS

This is a weekly podcast for Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs), introverts, empaths, intuitives, INFJs or anyone else that wants a little help supporting sensitivity! My name is Michelle Lynn.

The show is perfect for HSPs, introverts, empaths, intuitives, individuals with ADHD, and anyone that has regular interaction with people that have sensory needs.

    HSP SOS #40 - Very Highly Sensitive Problems

    Should we embrace our quirks and be ourselves, or should we try a little harder to "fit in" with everyone else? For a highly sensitive person, this dilemma is the daily struggle. Most of the time we find ourselves apologizing for who we are, and it can leave us feeling a bit alienated and lonely. Sometimes, however, it's fun to just shine the spotlight on what makes us different in order to connect with other highly sensitive people. In this special 40th episode of HSP SOS, Michelle and The Captain dive deep into some of their own very highly sensitive problems, and remind you to check out previous episodes to further explore the personal challenges, as well as the gifts of being a passionate, feeling person. Hopefully listening to this helps you realize that you are not alone, and you do have a highly sensitive tribe that gets you when it feels like you are going through this on your own. ---Subscribe to the HSP SOS Podcast!--- iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hsp-sos/id1221116848   Google Play https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Inavjhxeg2rdkub26frsppa7pca ---Follow HSP S.O.S. on social media--- On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos On Twitter at: @hsp_sos   ---More episodes, articles, and resources!--- Website: http://hspsos.com/ Libsyn Podcast Page: http://hspsos.libsyn.com/   ---Contact Michelle Lynn with questions, comments, or show ideas!--- [email protected]   ---Contact The Captain (Brian) with questions, comments, or show ideas--- [email protected]   Visit http://thecaptainspod.libsyn.com/ for other related podcasts! ----- Hashtags #HSP #HighlySensitivePerson #introvert #extrovert #ElaineAron #SelfHelp #INFJ #sensitivity Key Words HSP, Highly Sensitive Person, introvert, extrovert, Elaine Aron, Self Help, INFJ, sensitivity

    HSP SOS #27 - Highly Sensitive Children

    "Some highly sensitive children are fairly difficult–active, emotionally intense, demanding, and persistent–while others are calm, turned inward, and almost too easy to raise except when they are expected to join a group of children they do not know. But outspoken and fussy or reserved and obedient, all HSCs are sensitive to their emotional and physical environment" -Dr. Elaine Aron. If you are a parent of an HSC, or you were an HSC, you are well aware of the gifts and challenges associated with the trait of sensitivity. On this episode of HSP SOS, Michelle and The Captain talk with fellow HSP Melissa Schwartz. Melissa is a coach for parents of highly sensitive children, author, speaker, and co-creator of Leading Edge Parenting, not to mention just an enthusiastic advocate for HSPs internationally.

    HSP SOS #26 - Am I Enough?

    Some HSPs struggle with the feeling that they just aren't enough.  Fear of disappointing others, combined with self-doubt, can convince highly sensitive persons that friends and loved ones would be happier without them around. In this very intimate and personal episode of HSP SOS, Michelle puts The Captain on the spot and forces him to reconsider his own worth.  If you ever find yourself feeling like you are too much, yet at the same time not enough, then please listen. There are many reasons that HSPs struggle the most with the people they love the most, but there are also many things we can do to put our lives and relationships back into perspective. ---- Links to articles "In a Relationship with a Highly Sensitive Person?  Here's What You Need to Know."  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/22/highly-sensitive-person-relationship_n_7614832.html   "Can There Be Too Much Romantic Sensitivity" https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/in-the-name-love/201504/can-there-be-too-much-romantic-sensitivity -----   ---Subscribe to the HSP SOS Podcast!--- iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hsp-sos/id1221116848 Google Play https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Inavjhxeg2rdkub26frsppa7pca ---Follow HSP S.O.S. on social media--- On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos   On Twitter at: @hsp_sos ---More episodes, articles, and resources!--- Website: http://hspsos.com/ Libsyn Podcast Page: http://hspsos.libsyn.com/ ---Contact Michelle Lynn with questions, comments, or show ideas!--- [email protected] ---Contact The Captain (Brian) with questions, comments, or show ideas--- [email protected]   Visit http://thecaptainspod.libsyn.com/ for other related podcasts! ---- Hashtags  #HSP #HighlySenstivePersons #HSPSOS #INFJ #ElaineAron #IntimateRelationships #Relationships #Depression #SelfWorth #SelfEsteem #AmIEnough #SelfDoubt #SelfSabotage   Keywords  HSP, Highly Sensitive Persons, HSP SOS, INFJ, Elaine Aron, Intimate Relationships, Depression, Self Worth, Self Esteem, Am I Enough, Self Doubt, Self Sabotage

    HSP SOS #22 - Emotional Balance for HSPs & Empaths

    When you feel EVERYTHING, maintaining emotional balance can be a real challenge.  On this episode, Michelle and The Captain talk about the danger of being too fixated on feelings, as well as the moodiness that arrises from "putting a lid on it.".  For HSPs and empaths, dealing with emotions is a bit of an art form.  Traditional self-help strategies aren't always enough.  Sensitive souls often need to go deeper and acknowledge what psychologist Carl Jung calls the shadow self in order to truly establish and maintain emotional balance.   Motivation for HSPs "For When You Forget" by Michelle Lynn http://hspsos.com/for-when-you-forget/   ---Subscribe to the HSP SOS Podcast!--- iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hsp-sos/id1221116848   Google Play https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Inavjhxeg2rdkub26frsppa7pca   ---Follow HSP S.O.S. on social media--- On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos   On Twitter at: @hsp_sos   ---More episodes, articles, and resources!--- Website: http://hspsos.com/   Libsyn Podcast Page: http://hspsos.libsyn.com/   ---Contact Michelle Lynn with questions, comments, or show ideas!--- [email protected]   ---Contact The Captain (Brian) with questions, comments, or show ideas--- [email protected]   Visit http://thecaptainspod.libsyn.com/ for other related podcasts!   Keywords: Highly Sensitive Persons, HSP, empath, Emotional Wellbeing, Emotional Balance, Carl Jung, Shadow, Ego, Psychology, Shadow Psychology, MBTI, INFJ, HSP SOS, Mood, Feelings Hashtags: #HighlySensitive Persons #HSP #empath #EmotionalWellbeing #EmotionalBalance #CarlJung #Shadow #Ego #Psychology #ShadowPsychology #MBTI #INFJ #HSPSOS #Existentialism #Mood #Feelings

    HSP SOS #21- Gender Roles and Highly Sensitive Persons

    Do you feel like you are a poor excuse for a "traditional" woman? Maybe you don't like baby showers, don't want children, and feel less "girly" than other women.  If you are a male, perhaps you don't want to talk about the latest sporting event over beers with the boys, could care less about a man cave, and feel overwhelmed with the pressures put on you to be "the provider" for your family.  It's possible you feel like you are constantly disappointing others when you are just trying to be yourself?  There's a reason for that!  HSP's often have a difficult time understanding and accepting traditional gender stereotypes, and it can be even more confusing when trying to navigate relationships with others.  In this episode of HSP S.O.S, Michelle and The Captain talk about their own struggles with gender roles and how that has impacted their perception of self.  If men are from Mars and women are from Venus, it's quite possible then that HSP's are out of this world!

    HSP SOS #18 - Letting Go

    As a highly sensitive person, or empath, it is extremely challenging to ignore, brush off, or forget about our experiences with others.  Failed relationships, uncomfortable situations at work, "bad" decisions, and even passing comments made by strangers can haunt our memories for years.  In this episode, Michelle and the Captain explore their ability to forgive and forget.  They discuss how even if they can forgive someone, there are many reasons why their highly sensitive personalities won't allow them to just let it go.  Michelle shares the latest research on genetic memory, and challenges the Captain to consider if painful memories serve a positive purpose in the present.  It's a whole lot of geekery filled  Feelz on episode #18 of HSP S.O.S. ---- Resources: 8 Reasons Why Letting Go Can Be Extra Hard for an HSP http://thehappysensitive.com/8-reasons-why-letting-go-can-be-extra-hard-for-hsps/   Emory University Research Article http://emorymedicinemagazine.emory.edu/issues/2014/spring/features/the-anatomy-of-fear/ ---- ---Subscribe to the HSP SOS Podcast!--- iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hsp-sos/id1221116848   Google Play https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Inavjhxeg2rdkub26frsppa7pca   ---Follow HSP S.O.S. on social media--- On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos   On Twitter at: @hsp_sos   ---More episodes, articles, and resources!--- Website: http://hspsos.com/   Libsyn Podcast Page: http://hspsos.libsyn.com/   ---Contact Michelle Lynn with questions, comments, or show ideas!--- [email protected]   ---Contact The Captain (Brian) with questions, comments, or show ideas--- [email protected]   Visit http://thecaptainspod.libsyn.com/ for other related podcasts! ----   Keywords: highly sensitive persons, hsp, Elaine Aron, empath, INFJ, interpersonal relationships, forgiveness, self help, emotional well being, memory, genetic memory, collective consciousness Hashtags: #HighlySensitivePersons #HSP #Empath #INFJ #ElaineAron #InterpersonalRelationships #Memory #Forgiveness #SelfHelp #EmotionalWellBeing #GeneticMemory #CollectiveConsciousness

    HSP SOS #17 - School for the Highly Sensitive Child

    How was your school experience as a highly sensitive person? While highly sensitive children are often bright, energetic, creative, and empathetic, these positive traits aren't always recognized, or rewarded, in the everyday classroom.  On this episode, Michelle and the Captain travel back to their own school days, and discuss common struggles for Highly Sensitive Children, introverts, and HSS/ HSPs in an educational setting.  With depression, anxiety, and the suicide rate of children and young adults on the rise, a highly sensitive education that acknowledges different personality traits as well as the specific needs of highly sensitive children feels like a priority.  The conversation gets heated, but it addresses a topic that needs serious attention in education. ---- Resources Anxiety and Depression Association of America http://www.adaa.org/living-with-anxiety/children   The Highly Sensitive Child by Elaine Aron http://hsperson.com/books/the-highly-sensitive-child/   "When Schools Overlook Introverts in the Classroom" by Susan Cain http://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2015/09/introverts-at-school-overlook/407467/   Happy Sensitive Kids Blog for Parents https://happysensitivekids.wordpress.com/ ----- ---Subscribe to the HSP SOS Podcast!--- iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/hsp-sos/id1221116848   Google Play https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Inavjhxeg2rdkub26frsppa7pca   ---Follow HSP S.O.S. on social media--- On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos   On Twitter at: @hsp_sos   ---More episodes, articles, and resources!--- Website: http://hspsos.com/   Libsyn Podcast Page: http://hspsos.libsyn.com/   ---Contact Michelle Lynn with questions, comments, or show ideas!--- [email protected]   ---Contact The Captain (Brian) with questions, comments, or show ideas--- [email protected]   Visit http://thecaptainspod.libsyn.com/ for other related podcasts! ---- Keywords:  highly sensitive child, highly sensitive persons, introverts, social and emotional learning, emotional intelligence, suicide awareness, childhood anxiety, childhood depression, emotion revolution, emotional education   Hashtags: #HighlySensitiveChild #HighlySensitivePersons #Introverts #SocialAndEmotionalLearning #SEL #EmotionalInteligence #SuicideAwareness #ChildhoodAnxiety #ChildhoodDepression #EmotionRevolution #EmotionalEducation

    Imagine if you had to not only navigate your own emotions, but also the emotions of everyone else around you.  What if you could hear people's thoughts, and you could see what others could not?  Sounds like a highly sensitive nightmare, but for empaths this is a reality.  On this episode, Michelle and The Captain talk about a unique group of highly sensitive people called empaths.  Empaths are around 2% of the population, and this group often feels misunderstood, isolated, and overwhelmed.  Listen to this episode to learn more about different types of empaths, the science behind all this energy talk, and ways to cope with the stress of being an empath.  It's time to celebrate the gift of empathy and release the burden.

    HSP SOS #4 - Sensitive Superheroes

    Has a protagonist in a book or a character on a television show or movie ever become one of your closest friends?  Have you cried or felt depressed at the end of a favorite series or death of a beloved character?  Many highly sensitive persons form deep connections with the people in literature and films.  This doesn't make them weird or socially awkward, as a matter of fact this all makes a lot of sense based on the characteristics of the highly sensitive trait.  On this episode of HSP SOS, Michelle and The Captain discuss how imaginary friends and fictional characters can be beneficial for HSP children and adults. They also geek-out about something called superhero therapy! ---- Links to resources mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcKYIYwFf58 TEDx "Adults Need More Imaginary Friends" by Andrew Roblyer http://www.superhero-therapy.com/ Dr. Janina Scarlet's Super Hero Therapy Website   https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/beyond-heroes-and-villains/201505/superhero-therapy-fears-do-not-make-heroes-any-less-heroic Psychology Today article that includes a YouTube link to The Doctor explaining different types of phobias found in Geek Literature   http://nobullying.com/imaginary-friends/ Article about latest imaginary friend research.   http://www.poets.org/poetsorg/poem/love-song-j-alfred-prufrock T.S.

    HSP SOS #3 - Sensitive But Rude?

    Do people often ask you "what's wrong?" when you are perfectly fine?  Do people regularly assume you aren't having a good time when you actually are enjoying yourself?  Due to overstimulation and increased processing time associated with this, many highly sensitive people can come off as being rude in the moment.  On this episode of HSP SOS, Michelle and The Captain talk about how highly sensitive people aren't always viewed as being the most sensitive when it comes to interpersonal relationships.  They also offer some ways to handle this misconception with family and friends. ----- Resting Bitch Face Clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v98CPXNiSk    Recommended Article "HSP Topics:  The Challenge of Friendships" by Peter Messerschmidt: http://denmarkguy.hubpages.com/hub/HSP-Friendship    ----- Find HSP S.O.S. on social media HERE: On Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/hspsos   On Twitter at: @hsp_sos   ----- Email the Crew: [email protected] for Michelle Lynn [email protected] for The Captain -------- For more Highly Sensitive Feelz, visit HSPSOS.com! --------    Keywords: HSP, Highly Sensitive Persons, Elaine Aron, Susan Cain, Quiet The Book, Sensory Processing Sensitivity, Bitchy Resting Face, Resting Bitch Face, ADHD, Introvert   Hashtags: #HSP #HighlySensitivePersons #ElaineAron #SusanCain #QuietTheBook #SensoryProcessingSensitivity #BitchyRestingFace #RestingBitchFace #ADHD #Introvert

    HSP SOS #2 - Food Sensitivities Part 2 - Physical Effects

    Do certain foods make you feel really heavy or off?  Do some medications seem to have an adverse or really intense impact on your body physically?  Have you been to the doctor for suspected "food allergies," but you've been told that nothing is wrong?  Many highly sensitive persons are greatly impacted by what they eat and put into their bodies. On this episode of HSP SOS, Michelle and The Captain discuss food sensitivities and how many HSPs do better when paying close attention to how certain foods and medicines impact how they feel. ----- Links to resources mentioned Dr. Harry G.
