Highly Sensitive and Strong

Let's chat about slowing down and finding a path for ourselves that isn’t based on what we think everyone else is doing or thinking.

Once we stop rushing through life we’ll be amazed at how much time we actually have to live an intentional purpose filled life.

Reconnecting to ourselves is about learning who we really are and what we really want without the expectations of others so we start to strip away the layers of noise that have been placed on us, the labels and beliefs that we live under the weight of– most of the time without even knowing why.

Reflecting and reconnecting is about living our lives according to our own truth and no one else's. 

Grounding is actually one of the easiest practices we can do, and when we become grounded we become present, its easier to process our thoughts, to shut out the noise of what others think our path should be, and to align ourselves with what is truly meant for us. 

So if you also struggle with flooding emotions, too many thoughts, if you find that you’re on a path that doesn’t quite align with your values, or if you just need to pause to reassess what your goals and purpose may be then grounding is a great place to begin!

In this episode I chat with my dear friend Raphie Wagner about making connections with non-HSPs through sensitivity.

Raphie is an occupational therapist turned podcast strategist and a non-HSP who shares her experiences with managing her sensitivities and how she navigates the online business world and social media. She shares some great insights for all of us and through our conversation we can see that HSPs and non-HSPs have more in common than we think!

How often do we try to force the things we want or think we need into our lives? Anytime we find ourselves forcing things like romantic relationships, friendships, jobs that don’t align with our values or following any path that doesn't feel true to who we are.

Let's talk about how these moments are a perfect time for us to pause and rethink about letting go of what isn't serving us.

In this episode I share one my favorite therapeutic tools and its completely free!

Hugging and being hugged by someone we love is great therapy but what if hugging another person this isn't available to us? What other ways can we find that hugging feeling?

How do we get hooked into patterns? Getting stuck keeps us distracted from the present moment as a result we fall into the habit of being controlled by our thoughts and emotions. In this episode we talk about shenpa. According to Pema Chödrön shenpa, is the urge, the hook, that triggers our habitual tendency to close down.

In her book Taking the Leap: Freeing Ourselves from Old Habits and Fears, Pema helps us to understand shenpa and how we can begin to free ourselves from it.
