How to Manage Our Energy, Negative Thoughts, and Overprocessing as a Highly Sensitive Person

Julie Bjelland is a psychotherapist specializing in high sensitivity, and author of many resources to help highly sensitive people (HSPs) worldwide.

In this excerpt of one of her podcast episodes, she is joined by Willow McIntosh, the founder of Inluminance and leader of the High Sensory Intelligence movement.

In her Show Notes, Julie Bjelland writes:

The human mind is wired to look out for us which can often mean thinking worst-case scenarios and a negative view of things.

It takes conscious effort to maintain a positive outlook for us all, which of course is not always easy.

As HSPs we sometimes have a tendency to turn our powerful cognitive processing ability in on ourselves. When this is coupled with low energy or a pattern of self-doubt and low self-esteem our own minds can quickly become a very difficult place to be.

The trouble is, it can be difficult to identify what are just low-frequency thoughts of fear and which are coming from a place of knowing and self-alignment.

In this episode, we look at some of the techniques we can use on a daily basis to help maintain a peaceful state of being, including ways in which we can create peace of mind when our energy is low.

We will also look at why we end up in conflict with ourselves when we are simply trying to find a sense of belonging and safety.
