I'm beyond excited to welcome you into this very sensitive topic today … and it's going to be intense - no pun intended.To start, I've got a few questions to warm up to today's episode More times than not, do you easily overwhelmed by strong sensory inputs like smells, the way fabrics feel on your body and sounds you easily pick up?Do you seem to be aware of subtleties in your environment that others don't?Do other people’s moods affect you - to the tune of “little do they know” you can read their energy like an open book?Lastly, are you - or someone you know diagnosed with ADHD, Empathic or other spectrums of a neurodiverse mind? If you said yes to any of these - you may be an HSP ( highly sensitive person ). But there’s more to this story.....After I connected the dots of my late adult ADHD tendencies, there's a common highly sensitive energetic nuance that thread through so many high-powered and successful individuals that have ADHD - which can be superpower, but also your Kryptonite.So what is a highly sensitive person (HSP)? The term is coined by the clinical psychologist Elaine Aron in 1991 to describe a personality trait that is present in 30% of the population, approximately 80 million women and men across the United States. An HSP refers to those with a sensitive central nervous system and increased awareness of physical, emotional, and social stimuli in their environment.But today is Beyond just HSP’S. Research is finally taking notice to the energetic body, and its complexities with a wide variety of professionals like our guest Judy Lipson and even the start of my own research through the lens of my quantum biofeedback, functional medicine and hypnotherapy background ….. and it all comes back to your energy.So with that said I hope Judy and I can extend positive emotions of understanding, hope and clarity about yourself or someone you know.What You’ll Learn:Energy is our most sacred resource. It is in all of us, it is what connects you and I and the entire cosmos together….and yet most of us are never taught how to manage it.What and who are sensitivesAn alternative way to understand hyperactivity and inattention (what spirit told her) a couple years ago.How Sensory abundance can look like ADHD or anxietyPlay with your Blow-hole - the visualization of the hole to make sure that if you’re with challenging people to make your “hole” like a dolphin to close so others energy doesnt come in.

Or some kind of special entrepreneurial mindset.The diagnosis means that you think differently, and your brain is wired differently.Trauma layover:Anxiety, hypervigilant avoid stimuli and easily startled Overview of the 5 Senses: Visually sensitive individuals are sensitive to too much interaction and pick up all nuances..Auditories are highly attune to sound and hear what others dont hear that literally can cause pain. The hologram of the body and how emotions get stored. Always look at the antecedents and ask a traumatized reaction to the moment that took the person “ off line “ About Judy: Judy Lipson is a Licensed Professional Counselor and former special educator who began her private practice, Spiral Wisdom in 2002 to work with kids and adults of all ages who are Sensitives, which means (highly attuned to the five senses, energy, intuition, and empathy).
