November 2008: Comfort Zone ONLINE
A Letter from Elaine:
HSP Q&A; HS Teenagers & Friendship; Shame

Dear Sensitive Readers,

Welcome to another newsletter.

What's in this Issue?

Last time I asked for questions. In this issue I have answered some and listed the others to be answered. But if you have others, send them along.

You will also find more of the series for highly sensitive teenagers. I hope this has been helpful. My thought is that they will be in the archive for the future.

Finally, there is an article on shame, something relevant for many of you.

A Holiday Help: Any HSPs or parents of an HSC to whom you want to give a gift that could possibly change their lives? To make it easier...

Book and CD package, $25. Save $5. Order by December 18 and if you are in the U.S., receive it in time for Christmas.

At the HSP Store you can now buy The Highly Sensitive Person, normally $15 and as always personally signed, along with the new audio CD, Understanding the Trait of High Sensitivity, which contains material not in the book and is also normally $15. The two together: $25.

Also, you can buy The Highly Sensitive Child, normally $15, and Thoughts on the Highly Sensitive Child, which contains material not in the book and is normally $15. The two together: $25.

[EDITOR'S UPDATE 2016: Some items may no longer be available.]

What's New?

There are three more countries with websites and people tending them available for connection.They are Japan, Denmark, and Israel.

From Israel:

A new website in HEBREW for highly sensitive people, was born!

I invite all Israelis and Hebrew speakers to join us and make together something good for ourselves.

With love,

Still News: Do consider coming to the gathering in England in April. It is shaping up to be quite an event. I will be there, too. Do join us. It is a perfect time to be in Europe, before the crowds.

A definition arrived at while trying to arrange a visit that would include my 94-year-old mother, 38-year-old son, and two-and-a-half-year-old grandson (forget about 64-year-old me): A family is a group that tries to make everyone else happy while everyone else is trying to guess what the other wants besides to make everyone else happy.
(Or is that a definition of a group of HSPs?)

Our World: Changes in government, economic panic. Geez.

Instead of paying attention to the Dow, how about the Tao?

Fame or one's own self, which matters to one most?
One's own self or things bought, which should count most--
He who has hoarded most will suffer the heaviest losses.
Be content with what you have and are,
    and no one can despoil you.
Who stops in time nothing can harm.
He is forever safe and secure.

From Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching
