The Gift of Sensitivity: The extraordinary power of emotional engagement in life and work

“Once seen as a detriment, emotions are now emerging as a powerful attribute. People who have had to learn to toughen up to get ahead are now leaning toward the gifts of highly sensitive people. Elena Amber takes us through hidden gifts of sensitivity and shows practical ways to channel these to their highest levels. The Gift of Sensitivity is a guidebook for the evolving new humanity.” – Steve Rother, Founder, speaker, 8X author and 5X presenter at the United Nations, including the Class on Channeling

“When groups congregate, having even one highly sensitive person increases the group’s effectiveness. Humans thrive on collective action, and sensitive people like being part of a group and will work to make the group successful. The empath’s social nature guides others in improving health and happiness. For those of us who are less sensitive, there are lessons to be learned from the highly sensitive.” – Dr. Paul J. Zak, Professor, speaker, neuroeconomist, and author of Immersion: The Science of the Extraordinary and the Source of Happiness

“Sensitivity and empathy are core skills for Experience designers. In this highly personal work, Elena Amber shares the tale of how she became more sensitive, and the benefits of sensitivity.” – James Wallman, Futurist, 2x TEDx, 2x bestselling books, CEO World Experience Organization

In The Gift of Sensitivity, Elena V. Amber offers a thought-provoking exploration of the world of highly sensitive persons (HSPs), delving into the positive aspects and strengths of emotional sensitivity. This self-help book stands out as an insightful guide that encourages embracing one’s innate sensitivity, highlighting its potential as a powerful tool in both personal and professional realms.

Amber’s personal narratives resonate deeply, providing a relatable journey of self-discovery for readers, particularly for those unaware of their status as HSPs. This book serves not only as a mirror for reflection but also as a transformative guide for those who might view their emotional depth as a hindrance. Amber’s writing is both eloquent and accessible, striking a harmonious balance between theoretical exploration and practical application. The book challenges societal norms that often mislabel sensitivity as a weakness, instead framing it as a valuable trait. One of the key strengths of this book is its pragmatic approach; Amber does not merely extol the virtues of sensitivity but also equips readers with practical strategies to leverage their emotional acuity for personal growth and well-being.

The Gift of Sensitivity is a compelling and empowering read. It invites readers to reconsider their perceptions of emotions and sensitivity, encouraging them to embrace and harness this attribute as a powerful asset in their daily lives.
