Ep.15 - The Boundary Thing - a podcast by Mind, Body, Spirit, Home

The Boundary Thing:
Today we are talking about your boundaries. When you set a boundary, you are the one responsible for honoring that boundary, not for other people to figure them out. How do you know what your boundaries are? It’s a lot of self-awareness and exploring what your boundaries are. The feelings that come up when you start setting them, can be feelings your not used to and maybe you need to feel them to heal.

If someone breaks into your house, you’re not going to say, “oh sorry I didn’t leave the door unlocked for you”. You’re not going to pursue a toxic relationship with them. You are going to protect your space at all cost. This is what you need to do with your peace, your personal space, and mental health.
If you would cut a stranger off for disrespecting you, but if a family member or spouse or any person close to you does this and we keep allowing this in our lives. This is not easy, by any means. This is a reprogramming of your subconscious. You cannot change your behavior externally without changing internally. As above so below. You cannot expect other people to respect your boundaries if you can not respect your own boundaries, or honoring them, or standing up for them. Becoming aware of your boundaries are also about communicating. As you get to know these new limits, you are allowed and should communicate them to people around you as things happen. How they respond is on them, and you may get a reaction you don’t expect. Sometimes the reaction wont be good, but more often than not the people that care about you will respect and enjoy the fact that your growing!

Also, we are touching on the metaphysical side of boundaries. If you do not have healthy boundaries with your self and those around you, You will not have healthy boundaries with the spirit side.
