After years of seeking answers about her own sensitivity, Jenna found them, and through that search and personal healing, she would write her revealing childhood story about growing up sensitive. Since then she has been coaching and teaching on the topics of inner peace, higher consciousness, and life transformation.

Help Is On Its Way - A Memoir About Growing Up Sensitive helps introduce the emotional development of sensitive kids to mainstream audiences. This memoir follows author Jenna Forrest through ages 6-17 as a series of life events threaten to overwhelm her highly sensitive nervous system. An estimated 15-20% of men, women and children have a highly sensitive nervous system, but few people know that this level of sensitivity is a natural way of being that is very relevant to humanity as a whole. Children with such perception get added feedback from the brain about sounds, smells, tastes, textures, and images - all the things that the nervous system processes.

Take this official test to determine if you or your child has the trait.

Emails from Readers:

"Your book is so inspirational! When at the beginning of chapter one, I read, "Quiet times like this give me a break from having to feel everyone else's feelings," tears sprang to my eyes--I knew I would enjoy your book. As a little boy, I used to hide under our willow tree in the back yard, and I still have trouble keeping others' emotions from invading my own. As a highly sensitive male, I've long known there was something "wrong" with me--that is, till discovering Elaine Aron's books last year. It was in her newsletters that I read about your book, and one of my former professors bought it for me. Thank you for your openness, for trusting your readers with a part of your life, and for encouraging me to keep the inner flame burning. It's not always easy. Please write more!"
Jon, California Prison System

"I just finished reading this amazing memoir this morning. What an inspiring story you've shared with the world! I'm going to order a few copies for my mother and sister. In fact, I called my sister last night to share a few pages from the book with her, and we both cried. It really hit home for both of us! This book helped me in so many ways."
Autumn, Eugene, Oregon

"I'm currently reading Help Is On Its Way and believe me when I say the timing of its arrival could not have been better! I have recently discovered information on the trait of High Sensitivity and all that it means...I feel relief and healing that my ways now make sense. I'm busy learning and networking and reading your book is helping so much. I feel the time has come to live the life I was born to live. Thanks Jenna for your insights and your truth."
Louise, London, England

"Somewhere along the way I came across a recommendation for your book. I looked it up on Amazon, read what was available there, and found myself instantly drawn in an absolutely savoring the truths of feeling, experience, and insight that you so brilliantly remembered and conveyed. So that is the inspired journey that led me to your book. And speaking of help being on its way, I did receive some today. Quite a bit, actually, and your book was part of that, and your website is very uplifting and energizing. I don't have much confidence in the benevolence of the universe, but it came through for me here."
Deborah, Brisbane, Australia

Praise for Help Is On Its Way:

"Jenna's sensitivity comes out in her writing voice and the result is a rich panoply of both sensory and psychic impressions that give the reader an understanding of what it is to be in her skin. Her book can stand with other notable memoirs."
Molly McKitterick, Emmy Award winner, author and editor

"Highly sensitive people will recognize their own childhood in Jenna Forrest's radiant painting, using every hue in the emotional spectrum of her years from six to seventeen. Readers will be charmed by this sensitive woman's unique creative force, a valuable reminder of their own."
Dr. Elaine Aron, Bestselling Author of The Highly Sensitive Person

"Painfully honest, yet remarkably wise - a must read for anyone who's determined to live their best life."
Eva Gregory, Master Coach, Speaker and Author of The Feel-Good Guide to Prosperity and Co-Author of Chicken Soup for the Prosperous Soul

"The writing is vivid and sensitive. It's the showing of intuition in action."
Writer's Digest Book Awards

"In her memoir, Jenna wrote an account of her challenging early life, including high sensitivity, in a way that made her story both real and hopeful. She writes with detailed observation of important events, in a style that is engaging, dispassionate and often poetic."
Douglas Eby, Founder of Talent Development Resources

"Jenna Forrest shares a profound gift with us by allowing readers of her memoirs to peer into her soul. Her poetic prose amplifies the experience to the degree that we can feel the vinyl on the chairs and hear the scratch of the LP's she describes in her journey through childhood. Her words give voice to our child's mind with authentic eloquence, beauty, humor, sadness, fear and hope."
Philip Young, PhD, Innerchange Magazine
