If you're a highly sensitive person (HSP), you're in good company. HSPs make up some 20 percent of the population, individuals like you who both enjoy and wrestle with a finely tuned nervous system. You often sense things that others ignore such as strong smells, bright lights, and the crush of crowds. Even the presence of strangers in your immediate vicinity can cause you considerable distraction. You already know that this condition can be a gift, but until you learn to master your sensitive nervous system, you might be operating in a constant state of overstimulation.

As an HSP, the most important thing you can learn is how to manage your increased sensitivity to both physical and emotional stimulation. This accessible, practical guide contains strategies to help you master this critical skill. Build your coping skills by exploring the books engaging exercises. Then, keep the book by your side, a constant companion as you make your way through your vibrant and highly stimulating world.

• Find out what it means to be a highly sensitive person
• Take the self-examination quiz and find out whether you are highly sensitive
• Learn coping techniques indispensable to HSP's
• Discover how to manage distractions like noise and time pressure at home and at work
• Reduce sensory-provoked tension with meditation and deep relaxation techniques

Great info and well thought out!

This was a very informative and helpful book. I will use what I learned in this book and apply to everything I possibly can.

A+

one of the best books I've read... and I read about 20-25 books per year for the past 20 years.

Great help!

A very comprehensive and easy to follow guidance on HSP's issues and the solutions. Thanks

Packed with practical advice

I listened to this after Dr. Elaine Aron's The Highly Sensitive Person. It gave many strategies for dealing with the problems of being an HSP in the modern world. I will return to this book many times in the future for advice.

extremely out dated

the advice and research in this book is about 20 years out of date. most of the methods provided in this book are only stop gap management techniques that just do not have the efficacy that they may have had 20 years ago. wasn't work purchasing.
