Practising boundaries for surviving Christmas for Highly Sensitive People
The festive season is an idealised time of year culturally and in the media, however the reality for many of us is it can be a challenging time of year due to loneliness or family dynamics.
There can be a lot of pressure during the festive season for everyone to be ‘happy and having a magical time’ or create further strain on relationships that are already difficult. As highly sensitive people who are very aware of group dynamics, this can feel deeply uncomfortable and create anxiety. So in this blog, we will address how you could approach it differently to support, not only your wellbeing, but that of others...
Staying Resourced as a Highly Sensitive Parent during School Breaks
At the end of the summer holidays I decided to reflect back on the nearly 8 week period of intensive childcare (mostly solo) to ask myself, what did I do that worked and what could I do in the future as a highly sensitive person (HSP) to help me cope better? Here are some of my thoughts.

How to stop taking on your teen’s emotions as a Highly Sensitive Parent
When most parents say, “I feel bad about what my teenager is going through’, they mean that they have empathy and compassion. There is a sense of care for their child’s experience.
But when a Highly Sensitive parent says that phrase, they mean that they FEEL their child’s feelings. They’re actually experiencing emotions, physical symptoms and energies that are not their own. Read more…
Intuitive tools to help you receive information and guidance on your Soul Mission journey
Using intuitive guidance tools can be useful in helping you contact your Intuitive Intelligence and Soul Messages in support of your journey to uncover your Soul Mission, as a Lightbearer. Whether you are using them on a day-to-day basis, or occasionally. When we are trying to uncover our Soul Mission and remember our purpose, these intuitive tools can be like a compass to help us figure out the next step and identify which direction to follow. The more we use them, the more times we have success with them, and the more confident and trusting we can become in the information coming through (this is as well as listening to our intuitive hints or nudges). These tools can give us faith to live in a more and more intuitive flow - as we learn that they can lead to rich fulfilling experiences. These are some of the tools I have used or still use which may support you
How to discover your Soul Mission: It’s the journey not the destination
What happens for my clients (and myself included!), is that when it comes to uncovering our Soul Mission or our Calling we all too often get stuck on trying to leap to figure out ‘the end point’. Of course it makes logical sense because you want to know what you’re aiming for to reach that point, right? So we keep asking, is it this job or career? Is it this training? Should I teach this subject? And so on. But this is where we are missing the point completely…
How it Feels to Start Awakening to your Soul Mission
Many of us have come to earth as ‘light bearers’ in the world with a mission to support the evolution of human consciousness at this time. You are a soul with a mission and have a role to play, be that great or ‘small’. However as you transition into a new body, you forget on a conscious level all what has gone before… but the soul remembers.
Yet there comes a time when we begin to ‘wake up’, our soul and our guides begin to remind us - you came here with a purpose. The torch of your Calling activates and burns brightly - it becomes hard to ignore. So what does this awakening to our Calling (soul mission) feel like?
5 Intuitive Superpowers of highly sensitive people

Six reasons why your intuition is your most valuable life tool
Intuitive intelligence is an inherent human capacity. We are all born with intuitive skills even if we are unaware of it and they are never consciously developed. However, highly sensitive people (HSP) have a gift of accessing intuitive information with ease due to their sensitive nature.
But why would I suggest your intuition is your most valuable life tool? Well here are just some of the reasons why which will hopefully encourage you to begin to think about developing your intuitive skills…

Six Reasons why healthy boundaries are transformative for Highly Sensitive People
Often highly sensitive people can feel anxious about developing stronger, healthier, personal boundaries. We can fear losing friendships or upsetting people, facing up to conversations or people that we are afraid of and where we don’t want to irrevocably rock the boat even though we are struggling. We may block ourselves from action by focusing on our fears of rejection or disconnection whilst not recognising all there is to gain from this potential positive change of adjusting our personal boundaries. So in this article, I want to explore some of the possible transformational benefits.
Six Reasons why highly sensitive people are wrong to believe ‘It’s unkind to say no’
This phrase ‘it's unkind to say no’ is something that I regularly hear from my clients as we start to work on developing healthy, personal boundaries. So I decided to unpack this loaded short sentence and to explain why it is critical as a highly sensitive person that you ditch this belief today.
Four reasons good girl Empath’s fear their own power
There is a curious thing that happens in our healing process where we can be absolutely desperate for healing to take place yet be totally terrified and resistant to change. I understand why, because I have been there, it feels scary. I keenly wanted to feel empowered and embodied but I was terrified of my own power because everything in me told me it wasn’t safe to have it and this is something I see in many of my highly sensitive clients so I wanted to explore why that is the case.
The importance of rewilding for Highly Sensitive Women and what the Fierce Feminine has to teach us
For Highly Sensitive women, the fierce feminine can be an important ally for change and rebalance when it comes to our boundaries as well as seeing ourselves clearly. Rewilding and listening to the fierce energy within can empower us to be clear, honest and create greater freedom within and without. It is an act of rebalancing, often for over giving, people pleasing, peace making HSP’s. When we can integrate the force of this energy bit by bit, one decision or relationship at a time, it can feel a lot less intimidating. Until at some point you feel at ease with this aspect of yourself.
6 Reasons your intuition might be leaving you in the dark
Even once you begin to develop your intuitive senses as a HSP and start living a more intuitive life - this does not mean you will always have the answers at your fingertips. Some things you may discover can remain a blank mystery purposefully. Here are some of the reasons why and what you might be experiencing when it happens…
The deep need for a sense of purpose and calling for a highly sensitive person
A common experience I find with highly sensitive people is often a sense of feeling lost in terms of their life purpose. Now you may think, surely everyone asks this question - but not to the extent that HSP’s do I find. This feeling of an absence of a deeper sense of purpose or a calling can gnaw at a HSP causing them to have sleepless nights, or feel distracted / intense and this can fuel anxiety and depression. These are the reasons why I believe there is this driven need...
