An iris with the “Rings of Freedom” – also referred to as nerve rings, tension rings and stress rings.

The ‘rings of freedom’ (above) suggest an accomplishment-orientated nature and at times you can be the impatient perfectionist. You are SENSITIVE/REACTIVE to your environment and prone to nervous stress and muscular tension. But this does not necessarily reflect current stress in your life – it reflects something deeper. (You can feel stressed/worried even when there is nothing to be stress/worried about!). This is difficult for an HSP because of their need to STOP and take ‘TIME-OUTS’ – it goes against their tendency to re-ACT to their environment. And if they don’t, as a child they might tire and then get sick or as an adult the same, or worse, suffer ‘burn-out’.
