Sensitive: The Power of a Thoughtful Mind in an Overwhelming World

Jenn Granneman, Penguin Books Ltd. A ground-breaking look at the power of sensitivity to transform our relationships, career and life, from world-leading experts Sensitive celebrates the power of a deeper, more tuned in mind and explores the superpower that is being a 'highly sensitive person'. If you have a heightened sense of empathy, or often notice tiny details that others don't, chances are you're a highly sensitive person, along with one fifth of the population. Highly sensitive people exemplify our best and most humane traits. They embody not just emotional sensitivity - qualities like empathy, kindness, and concern for strangers - but physical sensitivity too, processing all information very deeply. The unique strengths of highly sensitive people make them inspiring leaders, heartfelt caretakers, careful decision-makers, and natural-born artists. Offering an exciting new way of unlocking potential, this book gives sensitives - and those who care about them - the tools to be successful in school, work, life, and love. Based on more than twenty years of research in neuroscience, psychology, and human genetics, it is the first book to explore the science and strengths behind sensitivity.Jenn Granneman (Author) Jenn Granneman is an internationally recognised authority on highly sensitive people and introverts.
