Our Sensitivity Is Our Strength

•

✨For me, my hyper-sensitivity was definitely a burden I didn’t know how to live with until my late 20s. My gifts seemed to be curses that brought me to the brink of suicide, simply wanting the pain to cease. Eventually, I was called to begin a journey of self-isolation and rewiring, a shamanic death whereby I was taken apart into pieces and built back together, if these words can even fully describe that experience. My invisible helpers taught me new methods of learning to cherish my sensitivity, learning to live with it. Methods like yoga, meditation, altar-keeping, spirit-journeying, and Talisman-making. Eventually, I was able to learn how to utilize my characteristics as a tool in seeing others’ suffering and offering healing beyond “talk therapy”, which my psychology teachers taught was the end all and be all of healing. People who are “unusual” are so often misunderstood, ignored, and bullied, and those are often the very people who came down here to this planet to share healing with the whole world. If you are a hyper sensitive, know you’re not alone. Don’t give up, as there is still so much more beauty to experience in this world 🌎. Namaste 🙏 .
