Sensitive Is the New Strong Quotes

“The outside world is loud and demanding so the first step in honing our powers is learning to deal effectively with sensory overload.

“Your sensitivity opens up six sensory world. It's connected to the other side. If you block your sensitivity, you block what's coming in from the other realm.

“When we deny that part of ourselves - one sixth of our senses - we deny part of who we are. And this is why empaths and highly sensitive and intuitive people struggle in this world.

“Now when our ego is turned up high, working in tandem with our conscious awareness knob, the ego becomes a beneficial tool because it helps us identify with, and connect to, our own individuality. It allows us to differentiate our own being, emotions, feelings, needs, and desires from those of others, clarifying who we are in contrast to the external world.”

“I came to understand that being an empath wasn't a condition I could get rid of, so I needed to stop judging myself and beating myself up for being this way. Instead, I had to learn to accept it, love it, and work with it. I also understood why I struggled with coping in the world.”

“A healthy ego protects and fortifies you. It's also important to note that there's a difference between having an ego and being egocentric. Having an ego gives you self-confidence. It gives you the strength and insight to stand up for yourself in situations where you feel vulnerable or exploited. Being egocentric involves being self-centred and self-serving, often to the detriment of others. Egocentric people frequently display a lack of empathy for the needs and feelings of others and the world at large.”
