My body has a bubble / by Harris, Nell,author.;
"A book about personal space represented by a bubble described in my words. Inside that bubble is more bubbles, all of them representing a different layer - but all these bubbles are invisible to the eye so we need to learn how to protect our own bubbles and respect others! Sometimes understanding personal space can be tricky, and we don't know what to do if we accidentally pop another persons bubble. Personal space...Something that is important to all of us and so important to teach to ensure safety. But when you're little, what is personal space? I do not use big words or acronyms that take the child out of the book, asking 'what does that mean?', a light rhyming story that can be a great conversation opener on what personal space means to YOUR family."--

In this book, Amit Sood, M.D., M.Sc., a Mayo Clinic specialist in stress and resiliency, reveals how the mind’s instinctive restlessness and shortsightedness generate stress and anxiety and presents strategies for living a more peaceful life.

The highly sensitive person : how to thrive when the world overwhelms you / by Aron, Elaine,author.(CARDINAL)741990;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 235-252) and index. How to cope when the world overwhelms you. For those people who: have a keen imagination; are labelled too shy or too sensitive; who perform poorly when being observed even though they are usually competent; have vivid dreams; for whom time alone each day is essential; and find they are quickly overwhelmed by noise and confusion, crowded parties, hectic office life ... this is the book to help them understand themselves and how best to cope in various situations. Highly sensitive people are often very bright and creative but many suffer from low self esteem. They are not 'neurotics' as they have been labelled for so long. However, high sensitivity can lead them to cease to engage with the outside world. The book offers solutions for a happy and fulfilling life. Particularly in the way an HSP perceives his or herself: the book helps to 'reframe' past events, such as a difficult childhood, or how they see themselves - ie. shy. Particularly strong material for those raising a sensitive child.
