Absorbing Energies as Highly Sensitive Person, INFJ, or Empath

Highly Sensitive People can have a really strong reaction to criticism. I've heard many complains that express how deeply triggering it can be for HSPs, Empaths, or INFJs to hear negative words about their performance or ideas. While most people don't like being criticised or judged, sensitives experience it so much more deeply and personally.

Dark Period of HSPs & INFJs

The dark season is starting in the Northern Hemisphere and many of HSPs and INFJs will feel like sleeping down to their darker days as well.

Although many enjoy the warm sweaters and falling leaves the challenge is that it might just threaten their ego and it's agenda to perform, serve, support, and fulfil all their obligations.

Just last week, I was talking about low energy, which also relates today's topic. In my newest, I talk about how letting yourself honour this time of darkness and descent to your inner world of emotions is critical to both your mental and physical health.

Root Cause of Stress for HSP and INFJ

Highly Sensitive People struggle with a lot of stress, overwhelm and anxiety. This makes them often feel like they're all the time in the fight flight mode, putting out fires and dealing with some sort of pain.

Today I'm talking about some of the main root reasons this happens, and specifically why it's different for highly emphatic, sensitive introverts. There are ways that these people are set up, which makes them vulnerable to experience situations that cause pressure, helplessness, and keeping them stuck in that negative loop.

How to create safe relationships with anyone as a HSP, INFJ, or Empath

It's no news that Empaths, HSP, and INFJs have a trouble belonging, and feeling safe sharing their authentic selves. The result is that they often end up isolating, or only forming relationships with people like them, to make sure that they are not hurt.

"Why is our life so hard?" is something that's on the minds of highly sensitive people, like INFJs. I hear this question from people like us, and I resonate with it deeply.
