42 Genuinely Promising INFJ Self Care Ideas

Self-care is not unique to INFJs, but many introverts require a little extra self-care due to our natural tendencies towards anxiety, depression, and stress. These emotional or psychological issues tend to develop into physical ones, especially for the INFJ, so it’s important to be self-aware and preventative. *Disclaimer: As an Amazon Associate, I earn a small commission from qualifying purchases.

As such, many of us don’t know what’s causing our insomnia, or how to prevent it from occurring night after night. *Disclaimer: As an Amazon Associate, I earn a small commission from qualifying purchases.

You are a Special Snowflake

Is an #INFJ a special snowflake? #livedeep #specialsnowflake

Being an INFJ, I’ve read articles, taken tests, been on forums, and this “special snowflake syndrome” comes up a LOT in reference to INFJs. My guess is because the INFJ personality type is considered rare, being only 1-3% of the population. The rarer, the more special, right? Wrong. First, let me be clear that being an INFJ in no way makes me feel any more special than anybody else. Yes, I feel complicated and misunderstood at times, but so does every other person on the planet. All personality types (read: people) have great qualities about them, and unique challenges. Second, […]

Avoiding INFJ Overwhelm and Stress

INFJ overwhelm is a real thing. It affects similar personality types as well, and may also include highly sensitive individuals. I understand that most people experience overwhelm at one time or another in their lives, but some of us experience it so often, it feels like a part of daily life.

Planning is a natural tool we use to make sure we’re not blindsided. It’s how we try to control our environment. […]

What is an INFJ?

Although nobody can perfectly define an INFJ (or any other personality type), they are often referred to as “the counselor” or “the advocate”. INFJs tend to be quiet “old souls” deeply rooted in love, with high morals and values, who are always seeking purpose. They are usually hard at work, making the world a legitimately better place for all of us. Nobody’s perfect though, and the passion of the INFJ swings both ways. They are an emotionally-charged type and can be quite complicated. They have even been known to “door slam” friends and family members, but if you deeply connect […]
