Real Life Lifehacks for the Highly Sensitive
The term high sensitivity refers to a complete set of traits seen in the behavior of a highly sensitive person (HSP), such as being especially empathetic, having a keen eye for detail and the bigger picture, and being creative and intuitive. It is present in 15 to 20% of the population. There are just as many extremely sensitive men as women. Being highly sensitive is a valuable characteristic. The world needs people who are empathetic, self-aware, and have the ability to think deeply and critically.
Unfortunately, each of these qualities can become a pitfall when taken to extremes. Self-reflection can turn into self-criticism, deep thinking into worrying, empathy into absorbing others' emotions, and helpfulness into rescuing others.
Lifehacks for the Highly Sensitive addresses 20 main challenges people face when they are an HSP. For each challenge, there are effective tips that make life easier. Some of these include:
- Learning how not to fear rejection
- Overcoming unhealthy perfectionism
- Taming your galloping brain
- Regulating your emotions
- And much more!
