7 Steps to Embody the Gifts of Your Sensitivity With Julie Bjelland

nn

nnTransform stress, anxiety, and overwhelm into a sense of calm and groundedness — through proven brain-training practices.nUncover the profound gifts hidden underneath the challenges of high sensitivity…nnWhat would it be like if you felt much more at home in the world…nn… because you had permission to be who you are, to fully embody and express your beautiful sensitivity?nnInstead, you likely feel as if you’re a square peg trying to fit into a round hole… dealing with simultaneous demands, and the expectation you should be able to “multitask” like other people — draining your energy.nnAs a highly sensitive person (HSP), the reality is that you’re uniquely gifted — yet, without knowing how to navigate daily life (and relationships) with your sensitivities, you might not feel so “gifted”…nnYou might experience deeply intense emotion and overwhelm. Decisions and taking action can be difficult when not given enough time to process all the details.nnYou may also struggle to set boundaries or limits, often apologizing for or hiding your true feelings and needs — unable to create enough space or alone time, or practice loving self-care.nnYour sensitivities, challenges, and gifts! are actually linked to deeper processing in your brain. And, according to the latest brain science, you’re not alone — about 20% of the population is considered to be highly sensitive.nnGenuine and compassionate, you have the ability to anticipate other people’s needs beforehand, and read others’ body language and microexpressions due to your higher level of awareness.nnOther characteristics many HSPs share include:n

n
• You prefer deep conversations instead of small talk

n

• For much of your life, saying no or creating boundaries with family or loved ones has been a challenge

n

• You often feel guilty putting yourself first, and blame yourself if someone else is disappointed

n

• You have high expectations for yourself

n

• You’re more affected by external stimuli than other people seem to be — bright lights, ticking clocks, dripping water, subtle smells (air freshener or food smells), and uncomfortable materials or textiles (like seams or tags in clothing)

n

• You crave meaning and fulfillment

n

• You have strong insight and are deeply in tune with others

n

• You love being in nature and find it restores you

n

• You feel drained and need extra downtime after crowds, socializing, or traveling

n

• You want to get things right and try hard to avoid mistakes

n

• You are very perceptive, noticing small changes in a room others might not see, or picking up scents

n

• You need time to process new information — and if you don’t get it, you can become overwhelmed and feel rushed

n

nIf you relate to even just a few of these traits, you’re likely empathic and a highly sensitive person…nnAnd, at the same time, because only 20% of the population are HSPs, you might find that the world is not set up well for you. As a result, you might end up feeling like something is wrong with you or like you don’t fit in.nnScience now validates what you’ve personally experienced as an HSP, and has determined what’s going on in your brain…nnAs leading expert and author Julie Bjelland explains, “Your brain is a supercomputer, taking in 50-100 ‘tubes’ of information, whereas the majority of people take in just a few tubes of information at a time.” (This explains A LOT!)nnYour brain has two parts: the emotional brain and the cognitive brain. For many HSPs the emotional brain becomes overactivated, basically putting the cognitive brain to sleep. This can make it hard to take in information, access memory, and emotionally regulate when you’re overwhelmed.nnFortunately, you can prevent this cycle now… and you don’t have to hide your sensitivity anymore!nnYou can teach your brain how to turn the cognitive part of your brain back on — so you can feel more in control, think more clearly, and be more focused and efficient.nnIn this brand-new video training, Julie Bjelland will show you how to activate certain brain centers intentionally, so you feel more balanced and calm, using simple practices that also promote overall wellbeing…n

nA Personal Invitation From Julie BjellandnGreetings, Beautiful Sensitive Being,nnIn my many years of specializing in this trait and working with highly sensitive people (HSPs) as a psychotherapist and HSP educator, I have had the incredible privilege of working with HSPs all over the world.nnI have found common patterns, challenges, gifts, and experiences that we seem to share as HSPs.nnI know that helping an HSP move from surviving to thriving changes the world, because when you are living your best life, you are out there spreading kindness, love, and beauty. It’s just who we are!nnSo if you feel called to join me for this program, we’ll explore the trait together, and get to know ourselves and our needs as HSPs to support the highest quality of life we can reach.nnYou are SO needed in the world and it’s my goal to help you shine your brightest. Experiencing this course with other HSPs will inspire you, uplift you, and normalize and validate your experience in ways that will transform your life.nnI look forward to celebrating our sensitivity together.nnWhat You’ll Discover in These 7 ModulesnIn this 7-part transformational intensive, you’ll receive validation, compassionate support, and skills to help you transform challenges that come with the trait of sensory-processing sensitivity, honor the gifts of your sensitivity, and flourish as an HSP.nnVideo teachings, training sessions, and experiential practices with Julie will guide you as you journey through what may likely be the most transformative journey of your life.nnModule 1: Understanding Your HSP Brain — Relief for Your Emotional BrainnnIn this module, you’ll fully absorb a powerful truth: you are not alone. Sensory-processing sensitivity is a scientifically proven trait that exists in 20% of the population (as well as in other species!).nnYou’ll discover that Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) have unique brain differences that cause us to experience the world differently than almost 80% of the population. Understanding this trait is life-changing and begins the process of truly thriving in the world.nnYou’ll begin the calming, centering journey that will unfold over these seven modules.

This sensory-processing sensitivity in the brain can show up both physically and emotionally.nnAs HSPs, we also tend to be over-givers and can become disappointed when others don’t reciprocate. Many HSPs receive messages — from the culture or our families —that there’s something wrong with our way of being.nnIn this module, you’ll discover:nnTools to balance your over-giving tendencies and cultivate self-compassionnA practice to develop an awareness of where your greatest challenges are coming fromnHow to get to know and prioritize your needs, the key to living your ideal lifenHow to lift off the layers of challenge to reveal and embrace your gifts (as an HSP, you’re likely to be highly compassionate and aware, an excellent problem solver, an attentive partner, a conscientious friend, and so much more)nGreater access to your generous, intuitive selfnModule 3: Preventing Overwhelm — Preserve & Boost Your EnergynnIf you’re wondering why you’re so tired all the time or have a hard time keeping up with the demands of life, this module will illuminate not only the reasons, but also solutions.nnYou only have so much energy in your tank. And as an HSP, you need extra processing time — because you take in, and often give out, so much at one time.nnOne of the biggest challenges of being sensitive is an overloaded nervous system, overwhelming your body, mind, and spirit.nnIn this third class with Julie, you’ll learn how to track and preserve your energy to reduce the overwhelm and boost and maintain higher levels of balance.nnIn this module, you’ll discover:nnThe role your nervous system plays in overwhelmnAn easy point system for tracking your energy — so you can preserve some of your precious energy for yourselfnPractices and compassionate support to increase your brain focus, experience more patience, and regulate your overwhelming emotionsnA brain-training skill that will equip your sensitive nervous system with “protective armor,” anytime you need a little calming or reassurancenHow to begin developing healthy boundaries — and how to say “no” without guiltnModule 4: Brain-Training Tools & Self-Care Practices Customized for Sensitive PeoplennWhen your emotional brain is over-activated, overwhelm happens…nnYour fight-flight-freeze response may be activated.

Why might that be?nnIn this module, Julie will explore this topic in a revelatory conversation with Dr. Julia Hipp, ND, that will give you insights and guidance that addresses these challenges.nnBecause the world is not set up for sensitive people and there are so many people who don’t yet know about this trait, we need to learn to advocate for our needs in relationships, at work, and even in health.

When you live in alignment with your authentic self, everyone benefits.nnDeveloping a true sense of who you are, and what you want and need helps you make better life decisions — which likely is a skill that’s been underdeveloped because you’ve been focused on others’ needs.nnFinally, you can know yourself deeply without always filtering everything through the lens of other people’s needs. It gives you a solid baseline to soar even higher in life.nnIn this module, you’ll discover:nnThat your authentic Self is valued and needed in the world, on a very deep levelnThat you have access to a new freedom, now that this trait has been “normalized” and you’ve been validated by others who share itnYour own requirements for your care and nurturing as an HSPnHow to shine your brightest and truly thrive, as you’re uplifted by other kind-hearted and supportive HSPsnInsights to help you continue to be who you truly are, that enable you to know what you want and need, and that empower you to make decisions that allow you to flourish in all areas of your lifenThe Gifts of Your Sensitivity Bonus CollectionnIn addition to Julie’s transformative 7-part virtual course, you’ll receive these powerful training sessions with leading visionaries and teachers.
