For highly sensitive people
Highly sensitive — and what helps day to day
Not a pile of advice but eight pages about the moments when it actually gets too much. Each starts with what helps now and leads to situations and techniques that exist in the Sia app.
Highly sensitive
Highly sensitive – what it means, and what helps day to day
High sensitivity is not a disorder; it is a nervous system that takes in more. What that means day to day, how to recognise it, and what helps when it gets too much.
HSP test
Am I a highly sensitive person? The test — and what comes after
An honest high-sensitivity test without an email wall. The markers from Elaine Aron’s research, what the result means — and what to do with it afterwards.
Sensory overload
Sensory overload — when everything is too loud, too bright, too much at once
Sensory overload in highly sensitive people: what it feels like, why the nervous system shuts down, and three things that help in the next two minutes.
Overstimulated
Overstimulated — what helps now, and what helps after
Overstimulated and don’t know where to put yourself? Three steps for the next minutes, what helps afterwards, and how to notice earlier next time that it is tipping.
Highly sensitive at work
Highly sensitive at work — getting through the day without losing yourself
Highly sensitive at work: why the open-plan office costs so much, how to get through meetings and criticism, and what actually restores you at lunch.
Highly sensitive in relationships
Highly sensitive in a relationship — closeness without losing yourself
Highly sensitive in a partnership: why an argument costs you days, how to need space without wounding, and what helps when the other person’s mood fills the whole house.
Noise sensitivity
Noise sensitive — when sounds hurt more than they should
Why chewing, building sites and the open-plan office exhaust highly sensitive people — and what helps: from earplugs to the technique that turns down the noise inside your head.
Highly sensitive & sleep
Highly sensitive and sleep — when the day carries on at night
Why highly sensitive people fall asleep more slowly, lie awake at four and barely sleep in unfamiliar beds — and what actually helps the nervous system in the evening.
