I discovered my treasured trait of high sensitivity 20 years ago when I started raising a sensitive child.”

I’m Lorna and I discovered my treasured trait of high sensitivity 20 years ago when I started raising a sensitive child. I noticed how neither of us could tolerate the noise and over stimulation of mother and baby groups. So I went in search of answers. I discovered the books of Elaine Aron and have found relief in reading, researching and studying the remarkable and wonderful trait of high sensitivity.
 I’ve raised 2 sensitive children since then and I live with my non HSP husband and youngest son near Bristol. 
I was raised in a family where deep emotions and sensitivity were repressed , treated as a weakness and strong emotions punished. I was often treated as a scape goat by my parents and siblings for taking things too personally and being upset by harsh and judgemental criticism. I was the youngest so also vulnerable and unheard in my family of origin. 
Fast forward 20 years, lots of therapy , mentoring , and the love of my own immediate family and friends have all contributed to me being able to live as my real highly sensitive self. What a relief and what a joy! 
Once a full time secondary school teacher of French and Spanish and a Head of Year, I found myself in too many non- HSP friendly work environments , so I retrained and I am now an artist , educator, polymath and I work principally with clay, shells, collage and photography. Although I am continually adding and improving my artistic practice.
I have recently been renovating an off grid retreat in woodland in the Lake District. Ideal for creatives and HSPs to find some peace and quiet in nature. 
I look forward to meeting you at our HSP cafe in Bath in September
