About this listen
Love lost in translation? Highly sensitive people (HSP) are not hard to love. Keep reading to learn their strengths, fears, and the best ways to communicate!
Are you an HSP with a non-HS partner who’s looking to better understand and communicate? Are you an HSP who wants to gain stronger self-awareness and contribute to your relationships while respecting your boundaries? Whatever your motivations, you’re in the right place!
As a HSP, you can feel misunderstood by those you care about. This brings up feelings of anxiety and helplessness about not being on the same path as your partner, friend, or family member. Or maybe you’re a non-HSP who constantly struggles to understand your HS partner. Often, you are perceived as inconsiderate of your HS partner’s needs. Both are equally heartbreaking situations. All you really want is to love your partner. But when there’s a misalignment between different perspectives, this is easier said than done. But not for long!
In Loving a Highly Sensitive Person by Jonathan Baurer, you will have the emotional, psychological, and physical tools to better understand and celebrate the HSP you love. Thanks to Elaine Aron’s ground-breaking research on high sensitivity, you will:
- Learn about the most basic needs of a highly sensitive person: It all starts with building a solid foundation.
- Get your HSP 101 and work toward a stronger, happier relationship.
- Use effective communication strategies HSPs value: Stop having all your good intentions getting lost in translation and better communicate in ways that truly resonate.
- Know what mistakes to avoid in the future: Learn what to do and what not to do when interacting with your HSP partner to reach common ground.
- And more!
Loving a Highly Sensitive Person is made with HSP’s and non-HSP’s needs in mind. Whether you’re a non-HSP who wants to understand your HSP partner, or an HSP who wants to better understand their beautiful traits and how they impact their relationships, this audiobook is for you!

Story
Statistics show that 50 percent of what determines divorce is genetic temperament. And, if you are one of the 20 percent of people who are born highly sensitive, the risk of an unhappy relationship is especially high. Your finely tuned nervous system, which picks up on subtleties and reflects deeply, would be a romantic asset if both you and your partner understood you better. But without that understanding, your sensitivity is likely to be making your close relationships painful and complicated.

Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren't attentionseeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren't passive, permissive disciplinarians. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach.

Being in a relationship without knowing how to share your feelings and receive your partner’s feelings in useful ways is like jumping into a pool without knowing how to swim. You can flail around all you want, but it’s not going to keep you afloat for very long—you need to be able to move in any direction at will. Like swimming, knowing how to share your feelings and respond to your partner's feelings will move your relationship in the direction you want: toward more intimacy, closeness, connection, and trust.

Everyone has a sensitive side, but nearly one in three people have the genes to be more sensitive than others—both physically and emotionally. These are the people who pause before speaking and think before acting; they tune in to subtle details and make connections that others miss. Whether introverted or extroverted, they tend to be bighearted, creative, and wired to go deep, yet society tells them to hide the very sensitivity that makes them this way. These are the world’s “highly sensitive people,” and Sensitive is the book that champions them.

One night during his divorce, after one too many vodkas and a call with a phone-in-therapist who told him to “journal his feelings,” Matthew Fray started a blog. He needed to figure out how his ex-wife went from the eighteen-year-old college freshman who adored him to the angry woman who thought he was an asshole and left him. As he pieced together the story of his marriage and its end, Matthew began to realize a hard truth: even though he was a decent guy, he was a bad husband.

Loving an HSP person just got easier
It is difficult when you pride yourself on practical and down-to-earth, or just or just happy-go-lucky and you are in a relationship with an HSP. It feels like you live on different planets at times. All the things you brush off so easily seem to matter so intensely to them and they get very upset if they feel you are dismissive of their fears or worries.
This book helps by decoding the differences between the two mindsets so you can meet in a place of understanding. I think this book is equally useful for the HSP, any book that makes the relationship journey easier is worthwhile and this book does just that.

No other book like this on the market right now
Research on hsps and the temperament is fairly new and this is the only book currently that helps in understanding your hsp partner. Read this to help guide my daughter who is hsp and ended up also getting benefit to understand myself, also a hsp. I did gather the traits that are harmonious in a partner for hsps and excited to have this info. Gave me insight also as to why the dynamic between my husband and I works so well. Gained alot from listening to this book.

Excellent Read
As someone who identifies with several HSP qualities I thought this was very thoughtful and helpful. I am going to have my husband read next, and excited for the conversations it prompts. I loved that even from the HSP perspective it helped me think about the aspects that are different that I can speak up more clearly about using the examples and narrative from the book. Audio version was easy to listen to!
