Hi
My name is BenedikteEva. I usually write most about alternative stuff like: the philosophy of magic, healing and how to create your own living experience (check out www.themagicalfaculty.com ).I also do a lot of artistic works: oil paintings, music and singing, science fiction and an occasional comic stripe. Besides that I once in a while stumble upon an interesting book or article on physics and mathematics, and enjoy a growing network of people: both family, friends and work associates.
I am also one of those 15-20 % of the earths population with a hypersensitive nervous system.
Having a hypersensitive nervous system means that I cant live the life that usually is promoted through the media, in ads, television shows and so forth.
If I go to a party with a lot of loud music or to a concert I can get overwhelmed; not only by the loud noise and the nauseating feeling of the bass through my body, but also by the feelings displayed in the faces of the people attending the party, the smeel of their hormones and parfumes, and their chit chatter, only meant to be fun, but never the less like a bunch of small piranhas napping at my ears, and causing my shoulders to move up to try to cover them. Sometimes when I am all rested and find some people I feel good with, I can enjoy such a party. But these kind of parties is not something I seek.
Sometimes I don't even have to go to a party to feel like I just described. It is enough to turn on the TV to get the piranhas gnawing at my ears and have the hairs on my arms stand up like using a balloon for funny static electricity experiments. TV is especially bad for me in the morning, the same goes for talking. For some reason I often find boyfriends who love to talk my head of from the moment they awake, and at the same time turns the radio on whilst running after me to be sure I listen to them, when I frantically tries to get away from the noise. I do not have a boyfriend at the moment, wonder why:-)
When at work and a lot of people goes through the office or talks in the other rooms I have difficulty concentrating, and often end up doing nothing. People don't even have to talk. They can just feel stressed, sad, angry, happy or aroused, and I go through the day feeling all these emotions, and trying to find out why I felt upset, and first after having talked to the people around me I find out that I couldn't find the cause of the emotion because it was just my electromagnetic field resonating with the people close to me, and the emotion was not an indicator of something being wrong with me, but that someone might need to talk about their problems.
I get a lot of information and impressions through my senses and if I don't have peace and quiet time to my self I end up with psychological indigestion symptoms that is an extremely stressful condition where it is almost impossible to find peace within my own mind, because all sorts of images, sounds, thoughts, physical sensations and emotions are trying to be sorted out at once. The sorting process takes time, meditation or sometimes just a good nights sleep, but none the less I have to set a lot of time aside for solitude and just looking out a window or take a quiet walk to the beach.
Taking my time for solitude and peace, I wouldn't trade my hypersensitivity for any other kind of nervous system.
Nature feels and smells amazing through heightened senses. The sounds are divine, water being sucked up by grass, birds talking their language, the wind making the leaves sound like harps, the ocean bassing its waves on the beach, creates symphonies of such beauty that the hottest hit of the moment should be shot of. The colours are vivid, deep and clear, and just looking at the green moss on a winter afternoon, can almost put me in a trance where I feel like I am one with the universe.
People who are happy or at peace, in love or just open, curious and balanced, gives an amazing opportunity to share a deep inner connection through reflective talking.
