This book explains what it means to be a highly sensitive person, why it is so often misunderstood, and the many reasons why you should love your highly sensitive self. In today's fast-paced, increasingly public society, we are expected to be strong, to have the energy to manage a packed work schedule, social calendar, a large network of friends, both online and offline, and to party all night.
 
This book is for those who feel flawed in their attempts to keep up with such an ideal. Written for highly sensitive people and other delicate souls, this book explains the characteristics of being highly sensitive and how to overcome common difficulties, such as low self-esteem and socialising. Ilse Sand also encourages you to explore and appreciate the advantages of high sensitivity, including your aptitude for depth, intensity and presence, and suggests activities to calm and inspire.
