Woody Allen on Casting and Being Socially Awkward

Woody Allen on Casting and Being Socially Awkward | Highly Sensitive | Scoop.it

A Wall Street Journal article notes, "Actors—women especially—love to appear in Woody Allen films… Though he's good at it, Allen actually hates casting, and his process is so eccentric that, Juliet Taylor, Allen's casting director said, 'We warn people beforehand.'

"The whole interview typically lasts about a minute, and in most cases the actors aren't even asked to take a seat. "I find the whole experience very awkward, because I am socially awkward," Allen said. "I don't like meeting people." - From How Woody Allen Sees It By Charles McGrath http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323469804578523611076250442.html

Empaths today struggle with absorbing the stress and the suffering we see all over the world. Dr. Orloff describes how empaths can ground ourselves, set boundaries, and hold space for others in a healthy way.

* The power of nature
Dr. Orloff discusses the special connection empaths share with nature as a source of replenishment, urging us to “go into nature” whenever possible as a means of coming into one’s full power as an empath.

* Empaths as leaders
Because of our deep sensitivity and ability to lead from the heart, explains Dr. Orloff, empaths are poised to become tomorrow’s leaders sharing a new vision of our interconnectedness.

Wendy De Rosa on early boundaries and survival | The Creative Mind ø Highly Sensitive Person

This audio is from the much longer video conversation with Melissa Schwartz by Wendy De Rosa on "Three Types of Boundaries Empaths Need to Stay Centered in Today’s World."

A page by host The Shift Network summarizes:

"Empaths are highly sensitive people who feel energy, but often feel ungrounded when energy from others crosses into their own energetic body.

"They may know they need stronger boundaries, but what kind of boundaries would benefit an empath? In this session, Wendy De Rosa shows you three different types of boundaries necessary for empaths to be empowered, and how they strengthen your energetic body.

"She'll also walk you through a practice that you'll want to revisit, over and over, to establish these boundaries."

Sensory Overload and Highly Sensitive People

Therapist and author Julie Bjelland notes "Sensory Overload tends to be one of our biggest challenges as HSPs.

"It is when our senses take in more information than our brain can keep up with processing.

"It is often the culprit of symptoms of emotional reactivity, anxiety, irritability, sleep issues, exhaustion, and even loss of productivity, creativity, and focus."

People say it can feel like "Someone turned the volume up on everything."

"It’s like I can’t handle one more thing in my head."

How To Thrive More As A Highly Sensitive Person | The Creative Mind

See much more in article "How You Can Thrive More As A Highly Sensitive Person" https://highlysensitive.org/12275/

Probably most artists and creators are highly sensitive people. While sensitivity comes with many gifts and positive qualities, there are also challenges to understand and deal with to enhance your creative life.

Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) therapist and author Julie Bjelland notes that stress centers and calming centers can’t be activated at the same time in the brain.

And we have some conscious control over this.

It can often be incredibly hard making decisions as a Highly Sensitive Person.

We have a thousand details, scenarios, and other people’s needs all swarming around.

What are some steps that might help us?

Practicing self-compassion can be life-changing.

It’s like having a supportive friend with you whenever needed.
