How are your shoulders? Jaw? Tight and tense? Your fellow Highly Sensitive People understand! But why does this happen and what can we do about it?

In this episode (# 294) the podcast, SelfKind, join me, Erica Webb - registered counsellor, somatic exercise coach, yoga teacher and highly sensitive person - as I talk about why so many of us highly sensitive types navigate persistent tension, aches and pains AND some simple strategies that can help.

If you're a highly sensitive person and you deal with persistent or chronic tension, this episode is for you. You will hear:
- why persistent tension can show up for highly sensitive people
- a reframe to help you see that, even though it's uncomfortable and you might want to change it, that tension is NOT your body failing or letting you down
- the role of mindful movement in helping to navigate persistent tension.

Take what feels supportive, leave what doesn't, and see how mindful movement could make a big difference to how you feel.
