It’s characterised by a finely tuned nervous system and an acute awareness of subtleties. It's not just a personality quirk; it's a neurological difference that brings with it a unique set of strengths and challenges. HSPs process the world around them very deeply, have strong emotional responses and are naturally very empathic. HSPs get overstimulated easily and often have sensory sensitivity to things such as food, noise, lighting etc.If you’re curious about the HSP trait you can take the self-test here. HSPs are known as Orchids in this model. <a href="https://sensitivityresearch.com/self-tests/adult-self-test/" title="https://sensitivityresearch.com/self-tests/adult-self-test/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://sensitivityresearch.com/self-tests/adult-self-test/</a> HSP Cafe West is run by Lorna Bode and is part of <a href="https://hspconnect.uk/" title="https://hspconnect.uk/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HSPconnect.uk</a> founded by Cindy Gale, HSP &amp; Psychotherapist for HSPs to find others, connect and build friendships.

About Lorna:I discovered my treasured trait of high sensitivity 20 years ago when I started raising a sensitive child. I noticed how neither of us could tolerate the noise and over stimulation of mother and baby groups. So I went in search of answers. I discovered the books of Elaine Aron and have found relief in reading, researching and studying the remarkable and wonderful trait of high sensitivity.I'm an HSP extrovert, Art Educator PGCE, Ceramicist, director of Pause for Creativity - Artist Led Workshops and Retreats.I have always been interested in nature’s forms and shapes. As a child, fascinated by found objects, I collected shells, leaves, insects and mosses. I still find myself drawn to their colours, shapes and textures. When working with clay I feel connected to the earth and the plasticity of the clay allows me to endlessly reinvent and recreate the natural world in my work.<a href="https://www.lornabode.com" title="https://www.lornabode.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">lornabode.com</a><a href="https://www.lornabode.com" title="https://www.lornabode.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> @Pause_for_creativity</a>
