Webinar: Assertiveness Training for Highly Sensitive People

Have you ever asked yourself these questions?

• Why is it so difficult to stand up for my self?
• Why do I let people treat me so poorly?
• Is it selfish to ask for what I want when others don’t like it?
• How do I assert myself without hurting people’s feelings?

Highly Sensitive People often find it challenging to stand up for ourselves, especially if we have an insecure attachment style. That means that when we were young, our caregivers didn’t meet our emotional needs. We were left with a hole in our soul. It is still there as adults unless we figure out how to heal.

When Highly Sensitive People think about sharing our thoughts, feelings and desires, we pause to reflect. We predict what others will feel, do and say if we assert ourselves. If we imagine a negative response, we may shrink back and say nothing. Some of us lash out. Either way, we probably won’t get our needs met. Then we complain silently or aloud that others don’t understand us or appreciate us.

The truth is that you have the perfect right to express yourself just as every one else does. But what if they don’t listen? What if they put you down?

Join us for this webinar to learn how to tactfully assert yourself. 

• It’s okay to want what you want.
• It’s okay to ask for what you want.
• It’s okay to be who you want to be.
• You matter. Step up and be counted.
• Examine the beliefs that make you hesitant to assert yourself.
• Develop the attitude: “I’m worth it.”
• Stop being non-assertive or aggressive.
• Break the pattern of codependency and inappropriate people-pleasing.
• Show respect for others and yourself: I count and you count.
• Stop being intimidated by other’s angry reactions.
• Manage your emotions so you demonstrate personal mastery.
• Re-center quickly when you get triggered.
