13 | True Colours (Coming To Our Senses)
The Haven (Private Podcast): (Protected Content)
This issue of Coming To Our Senses brings together some of what we’ve been exploring around our theme, True Colours, this season.
To say that something or someone has shown their true colours is a familiar metaphor for the revelation of something previously concealed.
The onlooker might have been unable to spot them. The source might have been deliberately trying to hide them. Perhaps to deceive others into believing their colours are different. Or maybe for fear of what people would think if they saw the truth.
Some of the ideas you will find inside this issue…
- There are parts of us we KNOW we are holding back, and there are parts of us we haven’t yet encountered.
- What it means to encounter, reveal, and tone down who we are.
- How our true colours might change through life.
- Why it’s not ‘cheating’ to view auroras through a camera lens.
- How might we help bring light to the colour in others?
- Colour swatches for Highly Sensitive People who sometimes tone down their natural colours.
- The beauty of ‘shared palette’ moments with others.
- How sometimes there is joy when the colour fades, and the wear and tear emerges.
Through words, images, and sounds, we invite you to engage with your sensitivity, imagination, and curiosity.
Thank you to Kelley, Kerry, Tuula, Zoie, and all who have been involved in community conversations in and around The Haven over the past two months.
