Setting Boundaries, Taking Control of your Life

Boundaries are the distance that I can love me and you simultaneously. 
Picture
How many times have you said “no”, only to change your mind a moment later, because you felt guilty or selfish?
How many times have you worried that others will get upset and dislike you if you set a boundary?

How many times have you tried to set a boundary, but you didn’t know how?

Boundaries are hard to set, but necessary.

Setting boundaries requires hard work and persistence, but we were never really taught how to set them in the first place.
​Trust me: you are not alone.

I wish there was a class at school where we would learn about boundaries, since..
Boundaries are the pillar of every healthy, strong and balanced relationship. 

How do I know if I need to learn about Boundaries?

Have you noticed any of these signs in you?
  • you are a people-pleaser
  • you fear abandonment and rejection
  • you find it difficult to set boundaries because you see them as a punisment
  • you believe you cannot be kind and set boundaries - one excludes the other
  • even when you set boundaries, you allow others to overstep them
  • you have a hard time standing up for yourself and minimise your needs to please those of others
  • you don’t know how to set boundaries
  • you believe that you do not have the courage
  • every time you are trying to set boundaries, you feel
    • lonely
    • misunderstood
    • isolated
    • worried
    • anxious
    • selfish
    • rude
