					<description><![CDATA[Understanding yourself as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) can bring meaning, depth, and strength to your identity and sense of self. Some do not recognize or come across the data about the HSP trait until later in life. Others may have learned about their sensitivity trait while growing up or working with a counselor. Whenever you began learning about the HSP trait, it is likely that you came across HSP books that explained or unpacked what sensitivity is and how you can better understand yourself through the research around the Highly Sensitive Person. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[With the year coming to an end, thinking about goals related to mental health comes to mind. Why? Because as a highly sensitive person, some of my biggest challenges are issues I face around my mental health. I aspire to be more balanced, to have more patience, and to navigate my days with grace, peace, and joy. But let's be real, sometimes I'm cranky, irritable, and stuck in my negative thought patterns. So, for the coming year, I decided to set five simple mental health goals for myself.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Finding a therapist who understands the Highly Sensitive Person trait is possibly one of the best ways to impact your therapy goals. Once you've started learning about the Highly Sensitive Person trait as researched and documented by Dr. Elaine N. Aron in her book, The Highly Sensitive Person, it might become important to you to find a therapist or life coach who is an HSP or understands the Highly Sensitive Person trait. Many therapists, coaches, and people in the healing and helping professions are highly sensitive, which is very helpful for HSPs who are seeking support. We who are sensitive can support others who are sensitive because we understand the ups and downs that go with the territory. Overall, finding a therapist who understands the Highly Sensitive Person trait can be vital to reaching your goals for therapy.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Highly Sensitive People, or HSPs, comprise 15-20% of the population, according to the researcher, Dr. Elaine N. Aron. As highly sensitives, we often wrestle with overprocessing, overthinking, and overstimulation because of the additional mirror neurons in our brains that cause us to notice more stimuli, feel things more deeply, and react differently to the world around us. There are many great qualities of the HSP and perhaps my favorite is our ability to process the world around us deeply. For this reason, keeping a journal or using a workbook created specifically for Highly Sensitive People can be extremely helpful. Workbooks for the Highly Sensitive Person can help shed light on the trait in positive ways and help find health self-acceptance and joy]]></description>
