SENSOR
They have a thin face shape, long thin neck and long thin fingers. This naturally thinner body may struggle to put on weight and muscle mass throughout life, and they feel the cold more than any other body type.
With naturally higher levels of the hormone vasopressin, Sensors have a highly alert (and sometimes overactive) nervous system resulting in a high sensitivity to sounds, stress, and other external stimuli. They are hyper-aware and tend to constantly scan their physical environment for threats, jump at loud noises, and stay well away from busy crowds. Their mind is always busy, and their senses are heightened too – they smell, hear and feel things much more than other body types. Because glucose is the preferred fuel source for the brain, a high carb diet is essential for this body.
Sensors are analytical, consistent, loyal, orderly, intellectual, sensitive, focused, determined, motivated, ambitious, and strong-minded. They are organized and very meticulous in their work, and naturally skilled at creating systems, strategies, and directing work flow with discipline and consistency. Because of their future-oriented thinking, they are great planners in their personal and professional lives. They have an eye for detail and like seeing a job right through to the end. They are creative and can think better in abstract terms than most.
Given the right Sensor-friendly conditions (feeling safe and being warm), they can accomplish a significant degree of mental work incorporating many ideas into complex concepts or theories.
Sensors are the most introverted in nature and tend to be very socially selective, preferring close friends rather than a room full of acquaintances or boisterous people. They generally have the ability to read others (from the need to stay safe in any situation). Because of this, when meeting new people they can be quite nervous – which can make them seem quiet and shy. They enjoy intellectual or even spiritual conversations with logical, calm people… and may get frustrated with illogical, erratic, or unpredictable people!
Sensors do well with calming, mind-body movements like yoga, tai-chi or dancing. High intense exercise or heavy strength training puts too much load on the already loaded neurological system, and they can burn out fast.
