Inner Reflections is my "personal" web site, covering my favorite "hobbies" and "preoccupations."
The site has an extensive exploration of the HSP trait, including descriptive pages about different aspects of HSP life, a photo journal covering the 2003 California HSP Gathering, articles and commentaries. My ongoing blog (an online journal) isn't specifically about the HSP trait, but does offer quite a few insights (or so I'm told!) into the way life feels when you're an HSP.
The remainder of the site explores the topics of Giftedness-- with a focus on Gifted Adults; Introversion; Personality Typing-- including Jung, Myers-Briggs, the Enneagram and more; general psychology; as well as commentaries and articles about life and living. |

HSP Connections The Information Directory for the Highly Sensitive Person |
Thank you for visiting the HSP Connections web site! |

Dear Fellow HSP,
My name is Peter Messerschmidt, and I am the creator of the HSP Connections web site, as well as the researcher, editor and publisher of the printed "HSP Connections" directory. I am also an HSP and an Introvert.
This web site, and the idea of a directory of "HSP-friendly" resources, came into being in the hope of filling a void I discovered while learning about my own High Sensitivity, back in 1997. In spite of the presence of the Internet, it seemed like a daunting and overwhelming process to find more information about the trait. And, to be perfectly honest, I felt more than a little shy about going to bookstores, or the library (let alone a therapist) and asking the question "What do you have that might be helpful and informative for someone who is Highly Sensitive?"
In addition to this web site, I also own two other "sister sites" which contain lots of information relevant to the Highly Sensitive Person. I invite you to visit them, as part of your journey of exploration! |
