Stress is inevitable and as a highly sensitive person, you will be more impacted by moments of uncertainty and change. You aren’t weak or incapable of getting through the hard times, you just need to increase the amount and intensity of self-care you’re practicing. Match your soothing to your stress levels. 

As another year begins, you get flooded with messages about setting resolutions and making grand changes in your life. Starting this year on your own terms means honoring your needs as a Highly Sensitive Person to make changes more slowly and focus on self-reflection over resolutions.  This approach frees you from the shame of incomplete resolutions and allows you to reconnect with what’s most important.

Throughout our lives many of us have been told that Sensitivity is a weakness or we have been labeled as fragile, anxious, shy or too emotional as a result of feeling deeply. The truth is being Highly Sensitive is a Strength with many advantages!
