This week Sarah & Tess discuss the difference between boundaries and barriers, what helps us create boundaries or distracts us from them and how we work to find balance in our life that brings us happiness.
Main points about what we discussed in this episode:
Boundaries are very much about meeting yourself in the moment
Boundaries should be flexible and semi permeable
Barriers are roadblocks and impermeable
Our attachments and aversions can influence how we create boundaries or barriers
Being honest with yourself about your boundaries is important so you can then share them with others
We’re constantly learning what we need and what boundaries are important to us
Internal compassionate dialogue is imperative to creating supportive boundaries
We need to be respectful and mindful that others are also going through this journey of finding their own boundaries
This week’s Happy Edit Tool: Take a moment each day this week to tune-in and notice what you need and how you can give back something little to yourself. Connect with a loved one to ask them to support you in your journey of creating supportive boundaries.
Happiness isn't just being happy, it's an embodied feeling that starts with how we approach life, our actions and our mindset. Everyone has a range of emotions and that’s a good thing. Join The Happy Edit Sisters as they dive into what it means to be happy and how we can build a foundation for happiness through different lenses.
