Boundaries Guide
TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE WITH CLEAR AND COMPASSIONATE BOUNDARIES
When we think of boundaries it can be tempting to think of a set of rules about how someone else “should” act or conduct their life.
But boundaries are not simply rules, they are limits that you set, getting clear on what’s acceptable for you.
They help you to establish your needs, and put yourself first, instead of leaving room for people pleasing when you know in your heart what you should say or do.
The part that setting clear boundaries plays in sustaining your personal wellbeing cannot be overstated.
You cannot expect to function as your most effective self if you are not respecting and protecting yourself physically and mentally, and creating and adhering to well thought out boundaries plays a huge part in this.
You need to let others know your boundaries, but keep explanations simple and focused on you.
You also don’t have to explain why you are setting a boundary if you don’t want to discuss it. Remember that “No,” is a complete sentence. By setting clear boundaries, you strengthen your sense of independence.
They can help create strong connections with and at the same time separate yourself from unhealthy attachments to others, leading you to feel more self-confident, resilient, and in control over who you are and want to be.
