Tips for Coping as a Highly Sensitive Person

I’m here today with Obi-Juan (pun intended), my friend’s highly sensitive dog. I had to hold him in the video because he was crying for her! The only way he stopped crying was if I picked him up. I felt their mutual (intense) anxiety before she left, and luckily realized it was not my own. The energy dissipated, I held Obi-Juan to soothe him, and here we are.

It’s not easy being sensitive. It’s actually really HARD! Sensitive people are affected by so many different energies – from other people, places, and just free-floating vibes. If we don’t know how sensitive we are, we can easily get tricked into thinking we are just having ridiculous mood swings or unprovoked anxiety attacks. That we are not OK.

If you are reading or watching this and you suspect you are highly sensitive, you’re halfway there to managing as a sensitive person. We don’t really “do” the world the way non-sensitives do. We need to work to distinguish our own energy from that of other people and places. We also need to know how to care for ourselves in order to manage our sensitivities.

Here are some basic tips that will help:

1. Spend. Time. Alone.

It’s vital that you spend time alone as a sensitive person! Get to know your own energy. Notice the ebb and flow of your emotions – alone, in a safe and comfortable space. Pay attention to how you feel when you wake up in the morning, and how your emotions feel to you. The more you understand your own baseline energy, and the way your emotions flow, the more easily you will be able to recognize when your energy is being compromised by other people or places.

2. Notice when your emotions and energies change

Pay attention to when your emotions shift. Notice what comes on quickly for no apparent reason. What changed in your environment? Did you just interact with a particular person or group of people? Are you in a new space? Try and identify any external factors that could have contributed to the shift.

3. Clear energy that isn’t yours

Most sensitive will tell you the easiest way to clear unwanted vibes or emotions that are not their own is to LEAVE! And then clear the energy. There are tons of ways to do clearings using energy healing modalities. I also have a free grounding meditation on my website that will help: https://krishanti.com/product/free-grounding-meditation/. You can also do basic things. Taking a walk outside will naturally ground you. Many sensitives swear by water – being in or near a lake or stream, ocean, waterfall, shower, or sea salt bath. Eating a light snack or meal will help, as will drinking water.

Once you get to a place where you can recognize certain energies that provoke an emotional response are in fact not yours, you’ll feel relief. And you will be OK!

Have you felt other people’s energies? How long did it take you to discover you are highly sensitive? And what techniques do you use to clear unwanted energy? Please share in the comments on YouTube!

Thanks so much for reading and watching, and I’ll see you next time!
