What does it mean to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)? HSP is a personality trait found in approximately 20% of people characterized by a finely attuned nervous system. It is hereditary and it is neither a negative quality nor a disorder. High sensitivity creates greater capacity for empathy, a heightened awareness of one's surroundings and environment (such as sounds, light, and scents), and a propensity for processing information on a deeper level. In short, if you are highly sensitive you likely find that you feel things more intensely than others do. Being highly sensitive does carry with it inherent challenges, especially in an increasingly overwhelming and fast-paced world. Working with someone who has training in the trait of high sensitivity to learn tools to cope can be a powerful step in harnessing the gifts of your sensitivity.
