High Sensitivity or Trauma

“Highly sensitive people learned early in life to try to control the external world as a way to attempt to manage their inner one.”
― Sheryl Paul

Do you think it is difficult to find your place in LIFE?

Do you have difficulities to relate to other people?

Do you feel being helplessly exposed to an indescribable maelstrom of overstimulation which is an additional obstacle in everyday life at work?

Enhanced perceptiveness –  a phenomenon that characterises both the highly sensitive and the traumatised person.

Even if this expanded ability to perceive has different origins (in the case of the highly sensitive it seems to be inherited, in the case of trauma traumatised by a triggering event) – it leads to a life with a highly
autonomic nervous system. For those affected, this means a constant balancing act on the perpetual balancing act on the continuum of overstimulation, associated with stressful physical and emotional reactions.

The challenge of this emotional rollercoaster is almost impossible for many to communicate.  It gives them the feeling of being “different”. There are many beliefs and experiences associated with it.

The good news is:
There is a key to a beneficial way of dealing with the highly triggered autonomic nervous system.

With it, an important sense of coherence can be established, in which slowly
all the parts could fit together into an overall picture experienced as coherent, so that authentic action out of freedom over oneself becomes possible.
This key lies in the understanding of the subtle language of the body.

This workshop offers the opportunity to make a first contact with this language.
In careful steps, it becomes possible to step into a greater distance to the power of the overpowering pull, in order to slowly and gradually gain sovereignty over the perceptual spaces that finally reveal themselves as the true gift of High Sensitivity and Traumatisation.
