I wanted to talk about something really important today - unhealthy boundaries. It's crucial to recognize when boundaries are not being respected because it can seriously impact our safety and well-being. 💔

Remember, boundaries are not meant to be selfish or controlling, but they are necessary for healthy and respectful connections. Let's make sure we prioritize our own #healthyboundaries and respect the boundaries of others. Together, we can build stronger and more fulfilling relationships! 💪

Some examples of unhealthy boundaries include:

‣ Have trouble saying 'no' or hearing 'no' from others
‣ Poorly communicating your needs and wants
‣ Compromising your personal beliefs, values, and opinions to please others
‣ Being coercive or manipulative to get others to do what you want

Hey everyone! Today, I want to talk about the importance of setting emotional boundaries. It's crucial to recognize your own emotional capacity and know when to share and when not to share. By limiting emotional sharing with people who respond poorly, we can protect ourselves from having our boundaries crossed. 😖

Here are 4 ways others can cross your emotional boundaries:

#1 Being dismissive and critical of your feelings, or asking you to justify the way you feel
#2 Reading through personal information kept in a private place, such as a journal
#3 Assuming that they know how you feel, or explaining your feelings to you
#4 "Emotionally dumping" on you without your permission

Therapy can be a transformative journey of growth, self-discovery, and healing. Here are five ways therapy facilitates this journey:

‣ You’re discovering your Strengths: Therapy helps you identify and harness your strengths, talents, and resources. Focusing on your strengths empowers you to tackle challenges with a positive mindset and utilize your innate abilities.
‣ You feel Empowered: As you work through challenges and develop coping strategies, you regain a sense of control over your life. Therapy empowers you to make intentional changes, set goals, and work toward them with newfound confidence.
‣ You are developing Resilience: Therapy helps you develop resilience – the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adversity. Through processing past experiences and learning to reframe negative thought patterns, you strengthen your emotional armor, making you better equipped to face future challenges.
‣ You’re uncovering and transforming your Limiting Beliefs: Therapy challenges and reshapes limiting beliefs you may hold about yourself, others, or the world. By identifying and revising these beliefs, you open yourself up to new possibilities and a more positive outlook on life.
‣ You’re Cultivating Self-Compassion: Therapy encourages you to treat yourself with kindness and compassion. As you work through self-criticism and negative self-talk, you develop a stronger sense of self-acceptance and self-love.

Remember, the journey of therapy is unique for each individual. Your growth may manifest in different ways, depending on your goals, challenges, and personal journey. The partnership between you and your therapist creates a supportive environment for exploration, learning, and transformation.
