“Sensitive: The Untold Story” Movie Event
In Partnership with Okanagan College, LASS is co-presenting a free showing of the movie “Sensitive: The Untold Story” on Friday, April 28th at 10:00 am at the Salmar Classic Theatre in Salmon Arm.
Do you cry easily? Do you often get accused of over-reacting or being too sensitive? Do you have a high degree of empathy? Do you find that good and bad things affect you more deeply than those around you? You might be one of the 20 percent of the population who are highly sensitive individuals, an often misunderstood physiological trait examined in depth in the new documentary “Sensitive: The Untold Story”.
This ground-breaking documentary about the temperament trait of high sensitivity found in 20% of the population in both men and women is based on the findings of bestselling author-psychologist Dr. Elaine Aron (“The Highly Sensitive Person”). It explores not only what it means to be an HSP but also what it means to teach them, work with them, raise them, and love them.

Tracy Riley, one of the instructors in the Foundational Programs Department, will lead a group discussion after the movie. There will also be door prizes, information sheets, coffee, tea, and a light snack!
