what are INDIGO kids?

Indigo children are hypersensitives, who are highly empathic and intuitive by nature. They can easily detect or are in tune with the thoughts and feelings of others. They are also highly introspective, and thus are very self-aware and have a clear sense of self-definition. They are often filled with a strong sense of purpose, and the feeling that they need to make a significant difference in the world.

They are strong-willed, independent thinkers who prefer to be self-guided rather than directed by others. They tend to think outside of the box, and are often referred to as "system busters". They are naturally drawn to matters concerning metaphysics, spirituality, the paranormal, the occult, and mysteries, while opposing conventional beliefs and unquestioned authority. They are often considered spiritually gifted, due in part to their depth of wisdom and/or level of awareness that is said to be "beyond their years", as well as the extraordinary talents and/or abilities that they allegedly possess, such as "third eye perception".

Indigo children are often diagnosed with certain psychological disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Dyslexia, and also Autism. They often feel misunderstood, and have a tendency to become unsociable or introverted when they are not around like-minded people.

They are also believed to be prone to depression and sleep disorders such as insomnia, persistent nightmares, and even night terrors. Indigo children also possess defining characteristics in learning; they tend to be more visual, kinesthetic learners and so they remember best what they can picture in their minds and create with their hands. Movement is required to keep them better focused.
