Sensitive people can be prone to deep burnouts; what Rue Hass recommends to prevent it

Rue Hass is a well-known intuitive mentor/counsellor/coach and author of: “This Is Where I Stand; The Power And The Gift Of Being Sensitive” and we had a really interesting conversation about sensitive people:

• The special gifts they bring to business
• And the pitfalls they have to avoid

One of those pitfalls is their vulnerability to burnout especially if they are in a helping profession such as healing or coaching. Here’s how they get setup:

They have grown up feeling unsafe from over-exposure and since they are usually caring, they have a need to make the world safer and better for some people.

A sensitive person is also usually highly conscientious, reliable and loyal and finds it hard to let other people down when her attempts to “save the world” fall short, as they inevitably must.

Couple that with a few of the sensitives’ less desirable traits such as perfectionism and wish to please, and you have a perfect storm for burnout.

The way out is to turn away from following idealism and instead turn in the direction of joy and creativity. The burnout candidate must ask himself what would please him and to find that, he must get out of his head and use his body as his spiritual guide and feeling barometer.

You can hear the rest of the conversation by going to this link ; a lot was packed in less than 40 minutes (I always try to keep my teleseminars as short as possible since we’re all so busy).
