Setting Boundaries in Relationships #026
Description: When we refer to boundaries, we are talking about emotional walls that are healthy. Boundaries are meant to keep us in relationship with the people that we love. Think of them as your property lines around your house. You know where your lines are, where your property ends and your neighbors begin. Therefore you know what you are supposed to take care of and what your neighbor is supposed to take care of. A boundary defines our self. Within ourselves, our “property” consists of our physical body, our desires, our intellect, and our ability to make decisions. It gives us a sense of defining what is “me” and what is “not me.”
How to Set Boundaries to Build Thriving Relationships: Chris Lee and Lewis Howes
Description: There’s a lot going on in this world lately with relationships being violated. We’re seeing it daily with the #MeToo movement and so many people in Hollywood coming forward. Problems aren’t just occurring in intimate relationships, but in business, family, friendships, and so on. Almost all of this stems from boundaries being crossed. Boundaries are something that we all need to create and stand by. But we can’t just create them, we need to communicate them. We need to make sure the people in our lives are clear about our boundaries and express ourselves the moment that they are crossed. You are a beautiful person and worth the best – so make sure others are aware of that. I know it’s hard, and that you probably worry about being fired or losing someone close to you. You can’t be, because that job or that relationship isn’t make you happy. Losing it will open you up to new possibilities. The worst case scenario about expressing and honoring your barriers is that things will get better – even if it means moving on.

5 Keys to a Life of Healthy Boundaries #28
http://podcast.defeatthedrama.com/ep28-5-keys-to-a-life-of-healthy-boundaries/
Description: What do you want, need or desire from your relationships? Do you ever ask yourself this question? Boundaries are rules of engagement for your relationship. If you are doing all of the modifying and all of the sucking it up without speaking up you will build up resentments with the people in your work and life. You will also tend to attract people who don’t like to respect boundaries. You want a say in how your relationships work. People who are more passive in life, in particular, often forget to put themselves into the equation of the relationship. They become so focused on meeting the other person’s needs or fixing their next catastrophe that they forget to consider their own feelings, wants and needs.
Create Healthy Boundaries: Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith
Description: Boundaries help us to see what we value. They require you to take a good look at what you need, what you believe, how you feel, and what you require to feel secure, loved, and respected. When our lives lack solid personal boundaries, we are more prone to let people, situations, and circumstances cross the line and infringe on those things that are precious to us. Good boundaries protect us from manipulation, shaming tactics, and guilt trips. Healthy personal boundaries resist the voices of those who want to keep bound in people pleasing activities. They challenge us to be courageously vulnerable by risking a confrontation with others. By definition, boundaries are confrontational. They are lines drawn in the sand which let others know how far they can go with us. They stabilize you and ground you. They are not about being selfish but about self-care.
