7 Reasons Why High Sensitivity Is A Gift
Surely you already know, just like me, that having a person with high sensitivity (an HSP) has its pros and cons. The time has come to change the resilient belief that sensitivity is not a good thing when it comes to managing our experiences.
It is time for you to understand that high sensitivity only means that you are connected in a much more active and productive way with yourself.
If you still think there is something negative, I really want to invite you to read about these seven reasons why hypersensitivity is a gift.
Being highly sensitive pushes you to act in a way that is in line with what you feel on the inside, because you will be emotionally blocked if you do not. This means you have an easier time sharing what you feel. You show the feeling you experience through every pore on the skin. No matter how positive or negative it can be interpreted.
You allow yourself to be authentic and to be who you really are. Straightforward, without restrictions. Many people may think that this way of perceiving life suggests a certain validity, but what really matters is how your heart feels. That is what others will never be able to silence. And the stronger this trait is, the freer you will be to live the way you want to.
You feel what others feel double up. You feel every single one of your emotions with intensity: love, pain, disappointment and joy.
Socially, we are made to perceive intensity as something bad. The belief is that if we do not know how to handle it, we will not be able to control ourselves.
But that’s when I ask myself the question: What’s so wrong with not letting anything in life pass you by? Learning to deal with your intensity in every emotion, every word, every moment of your life and your existence will be incredibly amazing.
For me, one of the greatest gifts of being a highly sensitive person is that you connect with life. Your days, all of them, have incredible meaning. Everything is valuable because everything has a reason behind it. Being this way allows you to see the magic that surrounds you. It lets you understand why you are who you are. The reason behind your and your loved ones’ existence.
Actions stop being something ordinary and stereotypical. You accept that life suggests that you follow the flow, that things change, that you are grateful for what you feel and enjoy it. And above all that you let yourself follow the flow. That’s why you’re free. Free to be aware of the fact that everything, absolutely everything, has a reason.
Being sensitive makes you perceive all emotions on an exceptional level. Therefore, your empathy develops to unimaginable heights, which makes you more compassionate if you choose to use this gift positively.
You can make all external situations your own because life gives you the mission to listen and help unconditionally. You learn that you have the right to say no, but you always love to offer help to someone who deserves your unconditional love and your brilliant heart.
You have such a high level of intensity that you can feel beyond what is visible to most people. I must admit that when you allow yourself to follow the flow and release the most elementary things, your intuition will awaken in a supernatural way, and you will be transformed into a powerful tool for feeling full and happy.
You let yourself feel situations and feelings, both yours and other people’s. In this way you succeed in managing your essence and, most importantly, the love you have for yourself, for life and for those you love. You provide them with effective help unconsciously, which is something that makes your heart bigger and yourself a better person, believe me.
I must admit that this probably happened to me and my partner. If you are a person with high sensitivity, you perceive the light of the person you are interacting with. As if it were a treasure map. This light guides you towards the true potential of this person, his needs and unimaginable secrets…
You are very insightful, which lets you know much more and get a head start on what others need in a much more intense way than usual. All of this allows you to create subconscious bonds that are full of intensity with those you love and your surroundings.
There will be many people who do not understand you. They may even try to discourage you as they underestimate the fact that sensitivity is something beautiful and good.
Remember that when something scares us, we as human beings have a tendency to immediately dismiss it. Without stopping to think about whether it really helps the person in question.
Like myself, you have probably felt misunderstood many times or that “something was wrong” in your life. I hope that with these seven reasons you will understand the incredible potential and vital gift you are entitled to enjoy.
