| | | As a highly sensitive person (HSP) in an often insensitive world, you may find it challenging to imagine that your sensitivity is actually a blessing that is desperately needed right now.
You’ve likely been told throughout your life that you’re too sensitive, too emotional, or just too much.
Those judgments have come from people who didn’t understand that your way of taking in life is far more intricate, deeper, and enriching — not only for yourself, but for those who you allow into your inner world.
As psychotherapist Julie Bjelland teaches, HSPs are often the most original creators, innovators, teachers, healers, and leaders — once they learn how to mitigate the biggest challenge to their sensitivity: sensory overload.
Sensory overload happens when your senses take in more information than your brain can process at one time. This can ignite anxiety and irritability, intensify sleep disturbances and exhaustion, and lead to loss of productivity, creativity, and focus.
If this sounds familiar, you won’t want to miss this free online event:
At this empowering online event with Julie, you’ll learn applicable tools for overcoming sensory overload — including a powerful technique that you can use anytime, anywhere to deactivate stress and activate calm, instilling a deep sense of safety in your body that allows your innate sensitivity to shine.
