What we’re about
Being a highly sensitive person in a harsh world can be tough, but it also makes you uniquely beautiful. This group is meant to provide a friendly space for everyone to meet and connect with other creative, mindful, and highly sensitive people.
Highly Sensitive Person, or HSP, is a term coined by psychologist Elaine Aron. According to Aron’s theory, HSPs are a subset of the population who are high in a personality trait known as sensory-processing sensitivity, or SPS. Those with high levels of SPS display increased emotional sensitivity, stronger reactivity to both external and internal stimuli—pain, hunger, light, and noise—and a complex inner life.
