 A leading cause and aggravator of chronic health problems is dehydration.
“Low humidity causes static electricity, dry skin and hair, increased susceptibility to colds and respiratory illness, and can allow viruses and germs to thrive. Wood floors, furniture and millwork will split and crack, paint will chip, and electronics can be damaged because of low humidity levels.” Consuming enough water through diet is the typical solution for staying hydrated. Yet, many people are drinking plenty of water and their bodies are still dehydrated. I palpate bodies for a living. Dehydrated bodies are suffering bodies. There is a second, primary source of hydration: The air we breathe. Proper humidity levels can make all the difference. Going from the chart I borrowed from Health Canada, the comfort zone is 30-55% humidity. Do you know what your humidity levels are? Do you know what's stealing the water out of the air you breathe?
 Highly sensitive and empathic people are natural targets of bullies and manipulators, some of whom cloak themselves so well as to be true incarnations of wolves in sheep's clothing. Dr. George Simon saw the sociologically damaging pattern coming long before most of us, and his insights help us to see the pattern so that it may be broken. If there are no available prey, the predators move on. Learn how not to be seen as prey. Learn what it takes to return our society to a more civilized one, where predators return to the wild, where they belong.
 I can almost always tell who the HSPs are who come to me as clients - they are palpably different from neurotypical people - and they are often remarkably strong, because they have to be. Highly sensitive people are built differently and benefit from understanding why they are different and what to do about it in order to feel more confident, less-stressed, and better able to navigate what too often feels like a heartless world.
Elaine Aron's body of work and research is probably the best introduction for those either unaware they are sensitive or who see it as a burden. My life changed for the better when I embraced my sensitivity, which resulted in the discovery of gifts I never knew I had. Discover your hidden gifts by discovering the beauty of being highly sensitive in a world that embraces the abrasive.
 A neurologically sensitive system is more likely to suffer from chronic illness and no one explains it better than this doctor living with chronic illness. It's a great read worth sharing to improve understanding and support:
