Have you been told you’re “too sensitive”?
This month, we’re highlighting The Highly Sensitive Person by Dr. Elaine Aron. It explores a normal, inherited trait affecting 15–20% of people.

Being an HSP is not a mental health disorder. It just means your nervous system processes the world more deeply.

Common signs:
    •   Deeply processing information and emotions
    •    High empathy for others
    •    Strong awareness of your environment
    •    Feeling easily overwhelmed by chaotic settings

This book is a great tool for understanding overstimulation and embracing your strengths.
