6 Surprising Truths About Being a Hypersensitive Person

Have you ever been told you’re “too sensitive” or asked why you react so strongly to everyday events? It’s common for people to mistake a highly sensitive or hypersensitive nature for a flaw or weakness, but this trait is much more complex than people realize. Being a hypersensitive person means you process emotions, environments, and social cues more deeply and intensely than most, and it is called the highly sensitive person trait (HSP)--a personality trait and not a flaw or disorder.... Read More

Surviving Houseguests as a Highly Sensitive Person

June 3, 2025 · In: HSP Relationships, HSP Self-Care Rebecca Scott

Surviving Houseguests as a Highly Sensitive Person

Because HSPs naturally process sensory input more deeply and feel others’ emotions more intensely. Even small disruptions like hearing your houseguest get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom can put your nervous system on high alert. At the end of the day, surviving houseguests as a highly sensitive person (HSP) is HARD.... Read More

My Sensitivity Wasn't Accepted by My Family

May 27, 2025 · In: HSP Kids, HSP Relationships, HSP Self-Care Lori Cangilla

My Sensitivity Wasn’t Accepted by My Family: How I Survived

No one had a name for high sensitivity when I was a child or adolescent. I was just an odd kid, the one who was always moody, who made a big deal and overthought things, who cried too easily, especially when a person or an animal was suffering. My peers mostly looked away when I was “having a moment.” My parents told me to suck it up (literally!) and wondered when I’d outgrow these behaviors that embarrassed and annoyed them. It was clear--my sensitivity wasn't accepted by my family.... Read More

Single Tasking Instead of Multitasking Game Changer for HSP Women

If you learn early on in life that multitasking allows you to get more done, you can fall into the trap of feeling like you always should be multitasking instead of single-tasking--no matter what is going on and whether you're highly sensitive or not. There's something in the nature of highly sensitive women and our people-pleasing natures that impact the ways we juggle multiple things at once versus doing one thing at a time. While I do enjoy walking or driving and listening to podcasts, and while I can clean the kitchen while talking to one of my kids about their day, when it comes to high-level tasks that require focused attention and strong concentration, single-tasking wins over multitasking every time.... Read More

The Highly Sensitive Person's Guide to Healing Generational Trauma

May 13, 2025 · In: HSP Relationships, HSP Self-Care Alyse Bacine

The Highly Sensitive Person’s Guide to Healing Generational Trauma

As highly sensitive people (HSPs), we experience the world more intensely, processing information deeply and sensing subtle nuances that others might miss. This heightened awareness extends to how we experience trauma, both our own and that which has been passed down through our family lines. For HSPs, our innate depth of processing means generational trauma can impact us in profound ways, often manifesting as overwhelming emotions, persistent anxiety, or an inexplicable sense of carrying burdens that don't seem entirely our own.... Read More

The Difficult Journey to Highly Sensitive (HSP) Discovery

Many of us have had a difficult journey on the path to understanding ourselves as highly sensitive people. We may have been misunderstood as children, and perhaps even as sensitive adults. We might have been bullied. We might have felt shame in how others treated us in regards to our sensitivities.

Serene Summer Sleep for the Sensitive Soul

May 5, 2025 · In: HSP Self-Care, HSP Journey Tonya Rothe

Serene Summer Sleep for the Sensitive Soul

As the heat turns up and the days stretch on, summer brings its own brand of excitement—bright sunshine, busy social gatherings, and a seemingly endless list of possibilities. Yet for us as Highly Sensitive People, that intensity can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to sleep. Longer days can tempt us to pack more into our schedules, making it tough to wind down when night finally arrives. Summer sleep for the sensitive soul turns out to be harder to come by. ... Read More
