Publisher's summary

Find the strength in your sensitivity and harness the superpowers it gives you.

Do people often tell you you’re being too sensitive when you get intensely affected by sounds, lights, or little comments? Do you find it tough to perform simple tasks because you just feel overwhelmed by almost everything around you? Do you wish you could be as unaffected as others who are able to go about their day without feeling too much?

If you think being a highly sensitive person is an endless struggle and burden, think again. Yes, highly sensitive people go through many challenges in life, as you’re well aware. You might easily feel drained by interactions, find it difficult to concentrate with so many distractions, or feel stronger emotions from ordinary encounters. As a result, you feel misunderstood by others, who label you as difficult, weak, or full of drama. But not only are they gravely mistaken, but they also have no idea just how powerful you are. There are tons of incredible strengths that come with high sensitivity.

A must read for anyone that identifies as HSP!

This audiobook is an excellent resource for anyone who seeks to understand how being highly sensitive can work to your benefit. In a matter of minutes, you will find yourself immersed in an easy-to-read audiobook that validates your experience as sensitive person. The author provides practical advice on how to convert your sensitivity into positive outcomes in all areas of your life, from relationships and social situations, to school and career success.

This audiobook helped me realize that I am not broken and it gave me the information I need to embrace my sensitivity and use it to my advantage in all areas of my life. It has so many practical tips and suggestions for how to work with your sensitivity rather than against it!

I was looking for a book to read and I wanted something that would relate to my life. I'm very pleased to say that this book has done just that. I found myself relating to a lot of the things that were talked about and it was very easy to read and understand the topic being discussed. This will be a great audiobook to sit down with and read, not only because of the relatable topics, but also because of how it is written.

Great value!

Being a very sensitive person is certainly an added value and should never be considered a weakness.
I am extremely grateful that this topic is so popular lately and that so many authors decide to delve into it. I absolutely recommend the book as it is full of valuable insights and information.

Understanding the highly sensitive person.

Living a normal life with your friends and family is difficult for a highly sensitive person. I have observed that people who are too sensitive about their emotions are not able to love well, to live well and to enjoy the small beauty of life around insenssitive people. Thwy don't need to diatract themselves by such people.

People always try to stay away from such person who does not have control over his emotions. Too sensitive doesn't means a peraon becomes toxic. Such a person needs some affirmations so that he can control this, so that people stop calling them "a drama".

This book is great. There are small numbers of  books on such topics and, amazingly, this is one of the best books about such issues. I highly recommend this book not only for sensitive people, but for others as well, so that they can also contribute to helping such people, In spite of making fun of them.

I bet this resonates with every person out there!!

Being a sensitive person, it is extremely difficult to survive in an ignorant and insensitive world. This book empowers every sensitive individual out there and inculcates in them, empathy and passion amongst themselves. The part I adore the most is the "superpowers of HSP" which includes their hidden potentials and how they can put it to a righteous and fruitful use along with struggling to survive in this narcissistic environment.
Kudos to the authors and much recommened to everyone! People who are not even that sensitive should also give it a read so they can build empathy for fellow senstive beings.

An interesting look into the world of HSPs

This book is full of information that I believe would be invaluable to any Highly Sensitive Person. Sally Ann provides tips and insights for HSPs on how to thrive in this world, and presents them in an easily digestible format so there is opportunity for the information to actually sink in. I wouldn't consider myself an HSP, but this book has opened my eyes and allowed me to become more aware of how I treat others who may be a HSP, but I also related to a lot of the topics that were discussed. If you are struggling as an HSP, or if you just curious on how to positively interact with HSPs in the world, this book is for you. Highly recommend

Masterful!

I really did not even know there was a book on the market on this topic. As a teacher and a guidance counselor, I see every day the effects that a word said in haste has on highly sensitive people, and I also see how challenging it is for these special people to interact with others and have fulfilling relationships. The secret is getting good information that is up-to-date and practical. This information is found in this book. I have already begun to recommend it to my colleagues and parents alike. This was a great job! kudos to the author.
