About the workshop (available by emailing us [email protected])
We speak often about the importance of parenting highly sensitive children well. Indeed, it is a huge responsibility to raise these sensitive, gifted, and challenging kids.

But high sensitivity runs in families and often those of us with this important and overwhelming parenting job are also highly sensitive. Did I say overwhelming? Maybe I meant OVERWHELMING.

If you are parenting while sensitive, you know what I mean. In Elaine Aron’s book, The Highly Sensitive Parent, she stresses over and over again how critical it is that we take care of ourselves. If we live with chronic overarousal, we can’t do our jobs and the stress will “take us down” (Alane’s quotes).

This is where “Prior and Proper Preparation” comes into play. A famous horse trainer once said, “Prior and proper preparation prevents p!x$-poor performance.” (Pat Parelli) If you’ll pardon the barn level language, I think you will come to agree.

Overarousal is 100% preventable, but also 100% inevitable. How do we work with these odds?

What kind of preparation does a highly sensitive parent need to flourish in their role? What works for you? What do you need to do differently?
