Certain people, because of their emotional biology, because of their emotional style and predilection, are more susceptible to certain kinds of illnesses, whereas thick boundary people are susceptible to others.
Ever been told you're too sensitive or that you overthink things? If you resonate with these traits, this episode of Eggshell Transformations is a must-listen. Host Imi Lo sits down with Michael Jawer, a writer and researcher who dives deep into the world of emotional sensitivity and its broader implications. Known for his work on the connection between emotion, personality, and health, Jawer brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.
In his latest book, 'Sensitive Soul', he explores why some people process their feelings differently and what that means for their well-being. This episode unpacks the concept of 'energetic boundaries' and the spectrum of 'thin' and 'thick' boundaries. Jawer explains how these boundaries influence not just your emotions but also your physical health, potentially leading to conditions like migraines or allergies.
The discussion doesn't stop there; it also touches on alexithymia, a condition where people struggle to name their feelings, and how this ties into one's boundary type. Imi and Michael share personal stories and insights, making complex topics relatable and engaging. They also explore the relationship between boundary types and MBTI personality profiles, offering a unique perspective on how we interact with the world around us.
If you've ever wondered whether you're an 'orchid' or a 'dandelion' in terms of resilience, this episode will give you some food for thought. With a blend of scientific insights and personal anecdotes, this conversation offers a comprehensive look at how our emotional boundaries shape our lives. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and perhaps find new ways to thrive in a world that often feels overwhelming.
