Setting Boundaries

Send us a text

Setting boundaries is meant to protect your peace. It builds expectations for others and yourself, on how you will show up and what you will or won't tolerate. For example, maybe you don't like crowded places so you choose not to involve yourself in activities that include those types of environments. The people in your life learn to expect that if a place is crowded, that's not your scene - that is a boundary. Now say you don't like crowded places, but you keep showing up to these types of events, because you don't want to disappoint someone - this is people pleasing. You and others are unintentionally pushing you out of your comfort zone. You will notice that the longer you spend outside of your comfort zone, the more drained you ultimately feel. We shouldn't be riding through life feeling overwhelmed and uncomfortable, because we keep overextending ourselves. We can't help every uncomfortable situation in life of course, but for what we can control, we should communicate and set healthy and unapologetic boundaries to protect our peace. Boundaries can be set with ourselves, with family, and with friends. No one is an exception to setting healthy limits.
