You’ve been told that being sensitive means you’re weak, fragile, or too much. That the world belongs to the thick-skinned who “don’t let things get to them.”

But if you’ve been carrying that belief for years, exhausted by how much you feel, it’s probably not because your sensitivity is the problem.

It’s because you never learned how to work with your nervous system, instead, you’ve been fighting it.

Save this post if that’s something you’re ready to unlearn.

The truth is: emotional sensitivity isn’t a flaw.

It’s often a finely tuned survival response, your body’s way of scanning for safety, forged in early experiences where attunement mattered more than expression.

Here’s what I need you to know:

🔹 Sensitivity is attunement, not dysfunction.

If your feelings hit hard and fast, it may be because you’ve always had to pick up on danger quickly. Your nervous system learned to notice the subtle cues others missed.

✳ Try this: Ask, “Is this too much emotion, or is it just emotion I’ve never been allowed to feel fully or safely?”

🔹 Suppression steals your clarity, healing gives it back.

When sensitivity is shamed, you stop trusting your gut. EMDR helps reprocess the “too much” messages and rewire the parts that confuse old fear with current truth.

✳ Micro-step: Notice when you’re “toning yourself down.” Pause. What feels unsafe about showing up fully here?

🔹 You don’t need to be less feeling, you need more space inside to hold what you feel.

That’s the difference trauma work can make.

You might believe emotional strength looks like control, but peace often came when clients stopped silencing themselves and started honouring their sensitivity as intelligence.

Sometimes healing isn’t about trying harder to connect, it’s about stepping back to protect your peace.
Distance can be painful, but it can also be powerful.
It creates space to breathe, to feel, to see what’s yours and what’s not.
Stepping away isn’t rejection. It’s self-respect. Go for it !!

When trauma is processed, the past stops feeling like the present. That’s the power of EMDR.

You’ve done everything they said.

✅ Talked it through endlessly
✅ Named the patterns, traced them back
✅ Read every book you could get your hands on

And still, you feel miles away from connection. Like there’s a glass wall between you and everyone else.

So let me ask gently… if insight alone could heal this, wouldn’t you already be free?

The truth?

Understanding your pain isn’t the same as feeling safe enough to release it.

Save this post if you’ve ever felt stuck in your healing, despite doing all the right work.

The missing piece isn’t more thinking. It’s relational repair, felt in your nervous system, not just your mind.

Here’s what that actually looks like:

👉🏼 Knowledge without nervous system safety can deepen self-blame.
“I know what happened. So why do I still react like this?” Because your body is still bracing for something that’s already over. Healing starts when your system feels you’re safe, not just knows it.

👉🏼 EMDR is powerful, but only when the relationship is safe.
The healing doesn’t just come from eye movements, it comes from being seen. Real change unfolds when the therapist tracks you with care, adjusts the pace, and meets you in the exact moment your body whispers “Am I okay?”

👉🏼 Insight can’t rewire what was wounded in disconnection.
But co-regulation can. When your shame or fear is met with gentle attunement, your brain, bit by bit, learns to soften.

No matter where they start, clients begin to feel genuinely connected, often for the first time in years, when safety is established not just in theory, but in relationships.

I try to live by momento mori in the fact that we are surely dying and won’t be here for very long. Today’s worries will be soon gone. They won’t matter. This may sound morbid but it’s actually the opposite - it shakes us to get living today. Do that thing you’re putting off. There’s no time.
Live deliberately. Love deeply. Speak truthfully. Create boldly.
One day, there will be no more days.
So live as though each breath is your last — because one day, it will be.

Comment EMDR to get the link to trauma-informed psychotherapy that helps you heal at the roots—so you can feel deeply without shutting down or apologising for who you are.

They told you breathwork, mindfulness, and “just calm down” were the keys to healing.

So you lit the candle. Sat still. Focused on your breath.

And instead of peace, you felt your chest tighten. Anxiety surge. Tears rising—or nothing at all.

The truth? Calm isn’t always safe for a nervous system that’s still bracing for danger.

What you felt wasn’t failure. It was your body doing its job.

📌 Save this for when “calm” feels impossible.

The mistake most people make is assuming regulation = stillness.
But real nervous system regulation starts by meeting your body where it actually is—not where you think it “should” be.

Here’s why “just calm down” can backfire ⤵

✨ 1. Stillness can feel like danger to a dysregulated body
If you’re stuck in fight/flight, stopping feels like letting your guard down. That’s not resistance. It’s your biology protecting you.
👉 Ask: “What state am I in—mobilised or frozen?” Then respond from there, not from shame.

✨ 2. Your body needs movement before it can rest
When we push stillness too soon, our system feels trapped. Try grounding through movement—walks, rhythmic tapping, even conscious fidgeting.
👉 Especially in EMDR, we use bilateral stimulation to soothe without shutting you down.

✨ 3. Calming isn’t the goal—safety is
Regulation isn’t about silencing your system—it’s about helping it feel safe enough to soften.
👉 Replace “Why can’t I calm down?” with “What does my nervous system need to feel safe right now?”

People have used this approach to feel genuine relief in just a few sessions—even if deep breathing or meditation always backfired before.

And just like that, the journey comes to a close 🎓✨

As their lecturer for this counselling and psychotherapy course, I’ve had the privilege of watching each of these amazing students grow into compassionate, insightful, and capable future therapists.

Each one brought their heart, strength, and openness into the room, and I couldn’t be more inspired by the growth we’ve shared together.

This was the last class of their counselling and psychotherapy certificate course here at .

Here’s to future of these therapists, healers, and changemakers as they now progress to the BSc in Counselling & Psychotherapy 💛.
I have personal experience of following this path and it was the best decision I could have made.

Wow! Unexpected but gratefully received gift from a client today. Very thoughtful and appreciated. 🙏✨
