Rest, reset, listen to your self, take care of your needs.
It sounds simple, but it's not always easy.

For sensitive women taking care of ourselves is on of the most important things we can do.
Give yourself permission to recharge, reset, and get back to you, your most important asset. 💜

It happens. The people pleasing parts get a lot of gratification form helping others.
But if I'm not careful, and they jump into overdrive, I can get resentful, and irritable about how much I'm giving others, and how little I'm giving back to myself.

Taking time to pause and reflect can help to recognize there are other ways of helping without burning a candle at both ends.

"Burning a candle at both ends" is a phrase my mom uses a lot. And I get it now! Pretty soon there's only room to burn out.

Rest is so important for all of us. When we're run down we feel more of everything!

That's why rest is especially important for highly sensitive people. Because we already feel a lot!

Feeling overwhelmed can lead to us shutting down.
So, taking time to take care of yourself before getting overwhelmed, listening to what does overwhelm you with compassion, and treating yourself with kindness are all great practices.

We all have parts of us and sometimes they get activated—or triggered. We might "like" certain parts more than others, but all of our parts have good intentions, even if they're hard to understand in the moment.

And if we haven't been loved and nurtured from a young age, and made to feel emotionally safe, some of our parts can develop more extreme methods for coping and navigating relationships.

But bringing self- compassion, mindfulness, and curiosity into our inner work can help those reactive parts find other ways of being.

🌟 Parts work, or IFS has opened new doors for healing for me and my clients.

🙏🏽 As you build a compassionate, caring relationship with all your parts you begin to help them unburden the pain they carry.

💜 I find that imagining my parts as young children it helps me find the compassion and love to approach them, listen, and help them heal.

Learning I was highly sensitive made so much sense and explained so much. But I didn’t fully realize that the term highly sensitive applied to me when I first heard about it.

I thought, that’s interesting, but I’m anxious. I’m an introvert. I’m a childhood trauma survivor. I’m not highly sensitive.

I think I was so attached to those other labels, and that high sensitivity felt too vulnerable.

But as I explored and discovered more about what it means to be highly sensitive, I realized that yes, while those other things were still a part of me, they didn’t describe the full picture of me.

I realized that my sensitivity impacted how I experienced the world as an introvert and trauma survivor. That yes, I experienced anxiety, but I also got overwhelmed so easily, and that felt a lot like anxiety.

Now that I've become more attuned to my sensitivities, I live and relate more authentically. I trust my intuition. I feel more present in the world.

It's hard to be in alignment in our own life if we're not caring for ourselves.
When we give and give to others our energy gets depleted. Parts of learn that our needs aren't a priority.
And if we're not taking care of ourselves in the ways we need, it leads to resentment and burnout.

For me, making sure I'm caring for myself helps me feel aligned emotionally and energetically.
How do you care for yourself?

11/03/2026

How often do you talk to yourself as if you're the worst person in the world?
I often catch myself saying, "Ugh, you're so stupid!" And I'm directing it inward when I've made a mistake.

How many times can you say that to yourself and not believe it's true?
Words wound deeply! You internalize them and begin to believe them, whether you're saying it to yourself or someone else.

Maybe it's time to treat yourself like your own best friend. Treat yourself as you would the other people in your life that you love and respect. I know it's a novel idea, but imagine how life might be different if you loved yourself unconditionally.

We're taught to look outside ourselves for validation and fulfillment.
And although we can get some validation and fulfillment from external experiences, true fulfillment comes from within.

When we are living from our heart, living a life of compassion and care for ourselves and others, to me that is living a truly aligned life.

Being able to fill those holes within you with the love and care you need — giving that gift to yourself — makes everything easier.
