Why Highly Sensitive People Hate Dating
Ever had a splendid first date with a Perfectly Nice Person, only to discover that they only had one date in them? Congratulations, my dear! You may be Highly Sensitive.

Your space, your nervous system.
Most of us were never taught how our bodies actually experience a room–the light, the sound, the layout, the smell–and what happens when those things work against us instead of for us.
This free seven-day course is a gentle introduction to sensory design. Each day brings one exercise–noticing what you feel, photographing what you’ve been editing out, dreaming about what you actually want. The exercises are all optional, and you can go as deep as you like.
