I thought this book would help my daughter, who I suspected was an HSP - Highly Sensitive Person - and, as she is reading it now, it is very helpful to her. However, my surprise was finding out that I, myself, also lean heavily toward HSP traits. Who knew?? Reading this book was eye-opening and transformative. I learned more about why I am the way I am than any personality test I have ever taken. This makes perfect sense because HSP is not a simple personality trait - it is a genetic and biological aspect of humanity in which 20% of the population experience a higher degree of sensitivity in response to stimuli. The authors are both HSP's themselves, although one is an extrovert and one an introvert. They both give us detailed peeks into their lives as an HSP, which is extremely helpful in thinking about our own lives, as well as the people we love who are also HSPs. They present HSPs as normal, complete, and created by God just the way we are. We are encouraged to examine who we really are by looking inside ourselves to discover our strengths and weaknesses, looking up to our Creator for reassurance and acceptance, and looking out to others to determine how we can use our unique sensitivity to impact and help those around us. I encourage all of us to read this book, because even if we are not an HSP ourselves, chances are we love someone who is.
