Dear highly sensitive friends, So much to tell you. But first, here's what's in this issue.
You Need to Tell Me If You Want It! A few weeks ago we sent you a notification of a new brief article posted on my Psychology Today blog site. That email also allowed you to sign up to receive more of these notifications. Otherwise, in keeping with my policy of only emailing you when I think most of you would appreciate it, you will not hear from me again about blog posts. You can still sign up for these notifications, however, by following the link at the bottom of your Comfort Zone email. This link will always be there at the bottom of your emails, should you change your mind, either wanting them or not wanting them. Or you can email webmaster@hsperson.com with the words "Please send me notices about blog posts" in the subject line. World News: The Highly Sensitive Person has been published in Hebrew by Focus, so if you know anyone in Israel, be sure to let them know. (I have a few signed copies to sell in my Store.) Some eager HSPs in Hungary have organized and bought the rights to The Highly Sensitive Person to translate and publish there. In Canada, I was interviewed for this article on sensitive children in The Toronto Globe and Mail. (The Globe and Mail also interviewed my husband and I about our research on love, for Valentine's Day. If you want to see a silly photo...) In France, we HSPs have made it to the cineme. Les Emotifs Anonymes is about a romance in "a support group which actually exists to help highly sensitive people who have trouble dealing with their emotions. The director, Jean-Pierre Améris, admits he suffers from this himself." The odd title given to the French translation of the HSP book, Ces Gens Qui Ont Peur D'avoir Peur (The People Who Fear Having Fear) explains this a bit. Here's more of the review. It is not easy to find with English subtitles yet, but you can try the internet. A Reminder about a March Course, Coming Up Fast I will teach two courses this spring on The Undervalued Self. The first is March 18-20 at Kripalu in western Massachusetts (Lenox) with its woods, meadows, great food, and yoga for every level. The other is June 3-5 at Esalen in Big Sur, California, with its hot springs hanging over the Pacific, amazing gardens, redwoods, and unique atmosphere. These are two of the only three appearances I plan for this year (plus the HSP Gathering in Southern California in the fall), and while they are not explicitly about being highly sensitive, I find that most of those attending are HSPs, sometimes finding out for the first time. (You who know yourselves can be very helpful to them.) Upcoming HSP Gatherings:
I will speak live at the Southern California gathering and by phone conference at East Coast and United Kingdom gatherings. For more details and to register, visit www.lifeworkshelp.com/hspgathering.htm The Undervalued Self will not appear in paperback, alas, so if you were waiting for that, you may as well buy it now. If you have already read it and liked it, it would be nice if you could rate it or say something to that effect on Amazon. By the way, if you enter Amazon through Amnesty International, they receive a portion of the profits from the sales. Make it a "favorite." Elaine
