HSP’s tend to experience emotions with heightened intensity. “At times, it can make them more susceptible to becoming overwhelmed by their own intense emotional responses. At other times when in a calm state of mind and not overstimulated, highly sensitive people can appreciate and use their intense emotional responses to make very discerning and perceptive assessments of their environment. They can ‘read’ situations with crystal clarity. This is why many highly sensitive individuals can be thought of as having high Emotional Intelligence – a capacity to recognise their own and other people’s emotions and use this emotional information to guide their thinking and behavior. They can be smart with their emotions.”
Extract from Mark’s upcoming book, “Embracing the Gift of High Sensitivity – the highly sensitive person’s place and purpose in the world”
