Manage episode 442719313 series 2115514
Navigating overstimulating environments can be a challenge for highly sensitive people.
In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth Cush talks with Martina Williams about coping strategies to manage your nervous system and walk comfortably in the world.
“If you end up being in a really highly stimulating environment, make sure that you create space for quiet so you can begin to down-regulate.” — Martina Williams
If you’re a highly sensitive person, you may have grown up feeling different. You may have been told that you’re too “too.” You may have had experiences or feelings that it didn’t feel safe to talk about. Maybe that’s still the case. The truth is, you’re not too much, your feelings are legitimate, and there are many other women like you. And here’s some really good news: Highly sensitive people can learn a lot from each other. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a mid-life women’s life coach, welcomes Martina Williams, a trauma recovery therapist and a coach who works with the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. They talk about what it’s like going through life as a highly sensitive person, share their experiences with using IFS to understand their reactions and increase their self-compassion, and offer tips for how introverts can avoid overwhelm and live with greater ease and comfort.
