What is a highly sensitive person and how does that show up in my classroom?

I wonder if you've considered the stress an average person puts on their nervous system with stimuli like social media or any notifications, and now add being in a highly stimulated environment of a classroom. It's really enough to make anyone need a break, but did you know that one in five of us is considered highly sensitive and that these stimuli have an even greater impact on our reactions? Knowing that about ourselves and our students is really key to helping all students succeed.
Do you practice mindfulness? Do you take the time? Have you considered using it in your classroom setting? I wonder if we might get better results from our students, especially our highly sensitive students if we did a little brain training implementing some mindfulness into our classroom practice.
What are some things to look for in students or adults who are highly sensitive? This Is something that Nikolai and I talk about. She is an incredible resource and there is so much that you'll learn by listening to her in our conversation.
Nikolai shares what a highly sensitive person is, and what some of the challenges are that they face so that in our classroom educators can be more aware and empathetic when students exhibit highly sensitive behaviors. Highly sensitive students can often be our over achievers, and Nikolai tells us why that tends to be the case.
