We thrive when we have healthy boundaries because boundaries help us identify what’s important to us, and provide us with guidelines so we can live at our fullest potential. It is helpful to identify what healthy boundaries would look like in your life and relationships. Three questions you can ask yourself are: 1) What needs or wants have I been ignoring or avoiding in this situation/relationship? 2) What actions could I take to gain a sense of autonomy/personal responsibility in this situation/relationship? 3) What would I need to communicate verbally to gain a sense of autonomy/personal responsibility in this situation/relationship?
