Highly Sensitive Woman

The experience of living as a highly sensitive woman in a noisy, busy and unrelenting world

Hello from London & Brighton | 8 April 2017

Hello from London & Brighton

Well Spring is here in the northern hemisphere and the flowers are putting on the best show ever.  For The Burnout Queens spring is the perfect time to put down new (and historic) roots.

 

The Burnout Pup thanks all of you for sending hugs as he continues on bedrest for his back.  He is showing signs of improvement so we may dodge the ‘surgery bullet’ for the time being.  His spiffy and sturdy little back brace makes him so confident that he’s back in high spirits, albeit without the ball play.  And yes, that means Dr T has been released from the pen (aka ‘the camper’ as we lovingly refer to it).

Last month we searched Chichester for a new home. This month while Dr T did pup-duty, Dr B took a 13 minute train ride to Lewes to view properties. Voila we are moving!  You can’t deny the magnificence of this view from the kitchen window!!

Enjoy a browse of our new village, while we pack, complete the paperwork and take a breather…yes of course with tea and cake!

 

 

See you later in May from Lewes!

Love,

Too Exhausted for a Life Vision…think again!

Seeking the Big Picture | Life Vision Means Living Burnout Free

The Burnout Queens know that most of our Highly Sensitive Women are tired, frazzled and pulled in every direction in their everyday lives.  So to suggest one more thing for them to pack into their lives seems cruel.  But…

A Life Vision is just what these doctors order for frazzled, fried and burned out women.  We know that on any given day, plans can get interrupted, postponed and forgotten in all the details of ‘being and doing’ for everyone.  THAT is precisely why having a Life Vision is so very important to cultivate at different stages of your life.  When it all goes sideways, isn’t it better to be able to go back to the drawing board and know you have already drawn something to follow?  When the chaos and busyness drop off, you can reconnect with yourself quickly and without much struggle.

Quickly and without struggle.  Foreign words to busy women, but they can exist.

On our previous blog (Do You Have a Life Vision)  we outlined two of our Ideas about Life Visioning to help you get started and not become overwhelmed.   Today we’re offering another two for your consideration.

The Burnout Queens want you to stop struggling and actually think about what it is you want in your life.  It’s easier to plan and achieve once the vision (the big picture) is clear.  So try these:

Idea:  Vision is different than purpose.  However, the dreams you have for your life can reveal your purpose to you.  Your life purpose is embedded in your life vision at the age of 12 or 20 or 50 or 80 or…

Idea:  Dreams come from the realm of “what if” and having a vision or a dream requires truthfulness about who you are and what you want.  Truthfulness in your vision does not have to lead to limitation.  Vision is expansive, illusion is limiting.  Vision lends itself to plans and goals, illusion is a dead end.

Come on Darling.  Start dreaming and achieving a life you want to live for yourself.  I bet you do it all the time for your family, your friends, your colleagues.  It’s time for you to get the big picture for your life and step in!
