In this week's episode, we tackle the very important issue of setting boundaries as therapists and healers and also helping clients set boundaries for themselves.
Listen as we discuss how we struggle with setting and maintain boundaries in various aspects of our lives. Dive in as we learn how to navigate the paths of highly sensitive and empathic folks, and talk about strategies that prevent total system overload.
Key takeaways from this episode include:
1. Boundaries as an act of self- care and help us to regulate our
emotions and behavior.
2. Teach people how to treat you. Do not expect others to
automatically be able to know your limitations and
expectations.
3. Start with small goals and practice. Continue to maintain
communication and work your way up from easier to more advanced
goals.
4. Have the same energy for yourself as you do for your clients.
You deserve to be treated well and with respect.
5. Setting boundaries is a normal process for everyone. It is
necessary and needed to maintain healthy relationships.
6. Are you that unique family member who keeps their distance from
the family? Do what you need to do to regulate your mental health
no matter what other people think about you.
7. Check out your schedule and makes some changes to allow for
recharge during the day.
