Benefits of Sensitivity & TendernessBeing sensitive and tender is pathologized in cultures that deem anything considered “feminine” to be less than. It’s a self-empowering act to rebel against these messages and radically accept ourselves. We can then more fully enjoy the nuances of life we have greater access to. When we feel deeply we experience all of what life has to offer. Having the courage to FEEL whatever is organically true for us, even the midst of so much opposition, we become a beacon for others to do the same. When we embrace our three dimensional selves, we live life more fully. While taking in so much of the world can be overwhelming, we can learn to navigate life in ways that create a stronger and more compassionate heart. Our depth of experiences teach us more about the nuances of life that can so easily be ignored. Not having a thick skin doesn't mean that we don't have boundaries and strength, it means we can learn to let in what feeds us and keep out what harms us. Being tender and gentle gives us greater access to love and beauty, in the world.
