Terrible

First of all: this is a book for HSPs, and they chose THIS narrator!!? I had to take a break every 5 min. because her voice is horrible and robotic.

This is a waste of time. It's HIGHLY generalizing (!) and adds nothing you can't find in every article online about HSP.

Instead I recommend reading "The Highly Sensitive Person" by Elaine N. Aron, Ph.D.
and "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking" by Susan Cain

Right on! This is just what I needed. to hear. <br />

For the first time , I. would rather be myself than have myself. Just what I needed to hear. Can't Stop listening!

definitive guide

It's one fair guide. the author took the time to present both the pros and cons of a person with emphatic personality. It can be difficult but with the right guide such as this, dealing with it is much more attainable.

Improve your relationships

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would very much recommend this to all my friends and family. It's a great audiobook to listen to and building relationship with others is something everyone needs to keep improving on.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It took me about a week to finish it as I listened to about 20-30 minutes a day. Great guide though in family and friend relationships.

Any additional comments?

My favorite part is when it talks about why people are hard wired to be highly sensitive and how you can handle these people and their emotions. People are really not black and white and everyone is different. The important thing is to make sure you come off as a friendly person and adjust to their own thinking and personality.

Appreciated and recommended!

I do not think that this book is just for sensitive people but for everyone as well. And if anyone has dealt with any kind of trauma in their lives or as a child that causes you to be an enclosed person then I think this book is for you. I just appreciate how this book was able to connect with me and hope that other readers will feel the same. Recommended!

Grow to love people

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, because everyone needs to know how to love yourself and love others. It's a rather long audiobook because there's 2 of them in here but I found it filled with valuable information,

What was one of the most memorable moments of Highly Sensitive?

How to handle tough moments in your life like death, broken hearts, etc. Everyone will experience these and it's beneficial to know how to handle them now.

Any additional comments?

this book my interest grew in small leaps and then mile long bounds. How to leverage on personality traits usefully is so well brought out in this book that I had to commence reading more. A very engaging and useful book and i guess its chapter on creativity was fantastic. I loved each part of it. My best wishes to the author.

helped me to understand myself

I decided to read the book after watching a youtuber reviewing it and I'm very glad I did. It has helped me to realise that being sensitive is okay , infact alot of the time it's an advantage.I also like that it gives coping strategies on how to help dampen too much stimuli and leave situations I feel uncomfortable in , as sometimes I find it hard to do. If you yourself believe you are sensitive or know someone who is , and want to understand their mindset more clearly, I recommend this.
