Highly sensitive people (HSPs), who make up some 20 percent of the population, are individuals who both enjoy and suffer from a finely tuned neurological system. This condition can be a gift, but, until HSPs master their sensitive nervous systems, they operate in a constant state of overstimulation. Conditions that most of us ignore completely overwhelm the HSP: bright light, loud sounds, and strong smells. More importantly, HSPs are also very sensitive to their internal worlds. They tend to be deeply affected by pain, both emotional and physical. The emotional demands of relationships and inevitable consequences of change often leave them reeling.

If you're a HSP, the most important thing you must learn is how to manage your increased volume of sensory experience, both physical and emotional stimulation. This accessible, practical guide contains strategies that help you master this critical skill. The book starts with a brief description of the highly sensitive person, and then offers a self-examination quiz, which allows you to assess whether you are highly sensitive. Then the book outlines coping techniques specific to the plight of the HSP. You'll learn tips for reducing the influence of provocative sensory experiences, such as excessive light and noise in the home and office. Meditation and relaxation techniques help you to reduce the anxiety caused by heightened sensitivity. Easy-to-follow exercises guide you through the challenges of communicating and interacting with others in both social and intimate relationships.

    f you live in a noisy city, it’s best that your home or office is facing a quiet backyard rather than a noisy street. When traveling, always ask the hotel or motel clerk for a quiet room on the top floor in the back.

    The good news is that even if it appears that you’ve spent most of a meditation with a monkey mind jumping from branch to branch, you are still probably receiving benefits. The positive physiological effects of meditation have been validated by many scientific studies (Wallace 1970). One student told me that he felt that he wasn’t focusing during one meditation, but when he answered the phone the caller asked if he was meditating since his voice sounded so tranquil. As you perform relaxation techniques regularly, deeper experiences of inner-peace will manifest in your life. Besides creating a peaceful mind, meditating will help you maintain a healthy body (Zeff 1981).
