Expanding possibilities

• Are you aware of your feelings?
• Are your feelings easily bruised?
• Do you have a vivid imagination?
• Do good ideas come easily to you?
• Do you need time alone?
• Are you attracted to the deeper things, spirituality, self-development, philosophy etc.?
• Do you feel bothered if there’s a lot going on?
• Are you a quiet sort of person?
• Does noise bother you more than others?
• Are you easily touched by other’s experience, stories of kindness, courage etc.
• Have you been moved to tears by beauty, in nature, art or music?
• Do you tend towards shyness?
• Do others tell you you’re ‘too sensitive’?
• Do you feel somehow different from others? (maybe even flawed in some way?)
• Do you easily read others’ moods and feelings?
• Do you easily sense the energies of places or situations?

Tests can only provide a guide. The more of these questions you answered yes to, the more sensitive you are likely to be. Eight or more and you are probably highly sensitive.
