I write this post with the holidays in mind.
Definition of boundary - "a line that marks the limits of an area; a dividing line."
I'm sure you've heard of this word being thrown around.
You should "create boundaries," "I NEED TO PUT UP BOUNDARIES!"
It's a whole thing you guys ha!
The truth of the matter is is that we aren't going to vibe with everyone in life, be it family, friends, co-workers. We all vibrate at different frequencies and believe in different things and that is okay (no matter how much it annoys you)
That is where boundaries come in.
When people are overstepping your line. When people are dropping their emotional baggage on your shoulders. When people ask you personal questions. When people want you to partake in gossip.. create boundaries.
Things we can say
"No thank you."
"I'd rather not talk about that"
"I'm sorry but that is not something i wish to discuss right now.
By creating boundaries, you let the other person know where you stand.
The holidays are upon us and most of us will be going back home to spend time with family and friends.
Boundaries are almost always crossed during this period in some way or another.
Start protecting your energy. It is not your job to please others whilst making yourself uncomfortable.
love and light,
Alisha
