Additional The Highly Sensitive Person Information

Do you have a keen imagination and vivid dreams? Is time alone each day as essential to you as food and water? Are you "too shy" or "too sensitive" according to others? Do noise and confusion quickly overwhelm you? If your answers are yes, you may be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP).

Most of us feel overstimulated every once in a while, but for the Highly Sensitive Person, it's a way of life. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Elaine Aron, a psychotherapist, workshop leader and highly sensitive person herself, shows you how to identify this trait in yourself and make the most of it in everyday situations. Drawing on her many years of research and hundreds of interviews, she shows how you can better understand yourself and your trait to create a fuller, richer life.

In The Highly Sensitive Person , you will discover:
* Self-assessment tests to help you identify your particular sensitivities
* Ways to reframe your past experiences in a positive light and gain greater self-esteem in the process
* Insight into how high sensitivity affects both work and personal relationships
* Tips on how to deal with overarousal
* Informations on medications and when to seek help

What Customers Say About The Highly Sensitive Person:

Too "academic" past chapter 3.Jamieson HaverkampfAuthor of the 4-time award winning 500+ resource guide Mom Minus DadMom Minus Dad: The Essential Resource Guide for Busy Adults with a Newly Widowed ParentMom Minus Dad: The Essential Resource Guide for Busy Adults with a Newly Widowed Parent (Kindle book version) The chapters on work and soul/spirit are also interesting. Once I got to chapter four (p66 out of 232) I got bored and felt like the content repeated itself a lot from what had already been explained very well in the first couple of chapters. 4 stars for the first three chapters and work and spirit but the rest of it wasn't written in enough of a dynamic way to keep me interested. I am definitely an HSP. I stumbled across this book and found the topic to be quite interesting especially chapters 1-3 that focus on facts about being an HSP and general heatth and lifestyle issues. I personally like to read books with vibrant active verbs and not so passive so I guess that's why I lost interest.

The book was in very good condition and was shipped in a very timely manner. I would definitely buy from this person again.

I ordered The highly sensitive person and received the highly effective person. I wrote an e-mail to sender and never received feedback on what I should do to receive the book I Paid For.

This book is a must for anyone who is sensitive or who lives with or is close to a sensitive person. Lots of helpful suggestions on how to improve your quality of life and lots of support via giving a broad perspective of how sensitive people fit into our culture and other cultures and how important we are in making positive changes in the world.

Here's what it says, over and over and over again: "Are you bothered by loud music, bright lights, crowds, other stuff like that. Here are a few examples. Feel good about it."I had hoped to find some strategies to deal with a world where one just can't avoid loud music, bright lights, crowds, other stuff like that. Lots of people are highly sensitive people.

And save your money. It's OK. Enjoy it. One of the few that I've ever given up on in disgust, about 2/3 of the way through. If it redeemed itself in the final third I'll never know.Save your money. Indeed it's really great. It's OK.

Feel good about it. This book was a disaster. If so, then you're officially a 'highly sensitive person.' But that's OK. There were none.
