Silencing HSP Negative Self-Talk in 4 Simple Steps

As an extremely self-aware highly sensitive person (HSP), I have realized that over the years, I have spent an exorbitant amount of time listening to my internal negative self-talk and even more time analyzing why my inner-critic speaks so loudly, where it came from, when did that voice start, and how the blazes do I shut it up.

April 23, 2024 · In: HSP Self-Care, HSP Journey Lauren Hunter

Exploring Self-Acceptance for Sensitive People

Understanding your high sensitivity can be a transformative journey toward self-acceptance. Those of us who grew up highly sensitive and didn't know this was a part of our personality, wind up needing to do a fair amount of work on themselves as adults learning to embrace self-acceptance as a highly sensitive person (HSP). When the messages you received during your formative years were negative, as an adult, you want to do the hard work to recognize what was and embrace what is. Exploring the areas in your past and present where you can recognize "what is" and accept yourself as you are is an invaluable skill to learn.... Read More

While having the sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) trait (commonly known as the highly sensitive person trait) is a blessing not a curse, building your very own personal HSP wellness team to rally around you can provide the highest level of support for all your HSP needs.... Read More
