Emotions…a poem by a fellow highly sensitive person

Post category:Personal Transformation Self Awareness

I received this poem by Ashley Gurka. I related to everything that she described. Here’s a very deep analysis of what it’s like to be a highly sensitive person.

From Ashley: “I could never understand why I felt emotions so deeply and intensely. My only outlet is poetry. It all makes sense knowing that I am a highly sensitive person. I wanted to share a poem I wrote about my emotions.”

Some natural home remedies for HSPs

Post category:Personal Transformation Wellness

Through my work with highly sensitive people, I’ve discovered that many of us share an interest in natural medicine.

Are you organized?

Post category:Achievement and Success Decision Making Goal Setting Important Life Skill

I write this blog post as I’m in the process of doing major organizing in my home. It seems to be an overwhelming task. Where do I start? Can anyone relate to my dilemma?

I’m organized in a disorganized kind of way. Does this make sense? To give you an example, I have a habit of clipping articles from many sources on topics that I’m interested in. I have numerous folders with headings of specific topics. Sounds organized doesn’t it? Wrong! I’m still overwhelmed! (more…)
