About this listen

 Are you often told to stop taking things to heart or to toughen up? Do you have a lot of empathy for others? Overanalyse things and get 'stuck in your own head'? Or become easily overwhelmed and frequently need to withdraw? If the answer is YES, you are probably a Highly Sensitive Person and this Handbook will be your survival guide! One in five people are born with the trait of high sensitivity. Yet, there is a general lack of awareness of the trait in our society, which leaves many people struggling physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually with being highly sensitive in a non-sensitive world. More often than not, HSPs are yearning for acceptance of their trait. When they realise their sensitivity is ‘normal’ and it’s acknowledged in a positive way, a deep sense of relief arises and they can start to flourish – feeling empowered to bring their unique abilities of empathy, compassion, creativity, healing and much more into the world. The book starts by exploring the main qualities and challenges of the trait – including both the reasons for these and the impact that they have. The invaluable second section then provides a wide range of practical strategies to manage the trait more effectively, from more self-love, coping with over-arousal, tapping for emotional freedom, energy protection, dealing with loss and bereavement, and tuning into the healing power of animals. And the final section touches on the more spiritual aspect of life that many HSPs are searching for, whether knowingly or not – from exploring past lives to getting help from the unseen world, such as angels – in their quest to fully accept themselves, and to live the authentic, fulfilling lives they deserve.©2019 Mel Collins (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Career Success Motivation & Self-Improvement Personal Development Personal Success Compassion Emotions Inspiring

This has been so amazing to listen to. I’ve ordered the paperback version for reference too. I would recommend it for anyone who is,or knows,or just wants to make themselves aware of, the hyper sensitivity personality trait.

The narrator's voice is very calming...and I resonated with most of the story. The story talked about the problems that HSPs face, how to deal with them, and also taught us about personality types and the underlying problems of said types. It's a great handbook for HSPs like myself. The book gave an in-depth perspective at how HSPs function and experience life in general, and I feel that if you are an HSP as well, this short audiobook might serve as a gateway to a better understanding at the unique gift that you have.

It made complete sense of my youth and gave me confidence for my future. It will take self healing and analysis but Mel Collins coaches you how to heal and cope with life.
