Establish a boundary is very challenging when you have the tendency to avoid uncomfortable feelings 😥

When you grow up avoiding conflicts, judgements or, simply, looking for people’s approval all the time, it is normal that you panic just from the thought of breaking this pattern.

You will begin to feel uncomfortable in your own skin and then backtrack to what is comfortable.

Thus, it is important to be conscious of this and allow those feelings to emerge, recognize them without giving into those impulses, prepare for the situation so that you can stay true to yourself and continue with the intention of letting others know what your boundaries are. Even if that means deceiving or inconveniencing them. ❤️

What other phrases can you say to yourself if you begin to have doubts prior to communicating your boundaries? I hear you 🙌🏻

Self-betrayal is when we choose to go against our needs and what works and is good for US.

These are some examples that I've seen in my practice, and I know there are many more.

So, I'd love to know if you guys have any other examples. I read you. ❤️

We tend to associate parenting with ➡ “Shaping my children to be what I want and expect them to be.”

This can result in many people to believe that being “accepted” by our family means that we should conceal parts of ourselves and/or pretend to be someone we’re not.

When deciding to become a parent, it is integral for us to understand that we will give birth to a unique human being that is going to develop into their own person with their unique likes, dislikes, traits, strengths and “weaknesses.”

I put the word “weaknesses” in quotes because I believe most of them to be perceptual. What you consider a weakness, could be my greatest strength.

I often see people hiding parts of themselves from their family because they are afraid that it could make someone uncomfortable, which can result in the loss of love and respect.

What’s the result?
📌 Surface-level relationships
📌 Significant family hardships
📌 Resentment
📌 Anger
📌 Struggles with identity and self-esteem
“Children aren’t ours to possess or own in any way.” (Shefali Tsabary ). When we open ourselves up to truly comprehend this, we will adapt our parenting to shape our children’s needs, rather than obliging them to fulfill ours.

Healthy parenting allows children to become their own authentic selves!

Drop a “♥️” if you agree.

From the minute we step foot into this world, we are immediately assigned a label.

That label will determine what type of clothing we’ll wear, the types of interests we should have, and what behaviors are considered “acceptable”.

Labels can be present in every facet of our lives, which can then lead to problematic assumptions and determine our place in society. Our assigned role can dictate the types of resources we will have access to.

Whenever a label is placed on us we ask ourselves:

⭐️How does this label play a role in my position in society?

⭐️What about if my values and beliefs don't match up to that label?

Every time you say "I am ..." you're setting yourself up to that limitation.- This was a phrase I heard .holistic.psychologist say in a podcast with .

What labels have society placed on you and how have they affected the way you view yourself?

Certain labels can create barriers. And I believe in GROWTH! I believe in YOU creating YOUR OWN LABELS that actually serve YOU.

"I am worthy! I am loved! and I am confident" are labels that empower you and make you want to succeed.

When you hear “boundaries are unique to each person” you may be like "what the heck?!" How am I supposed to know which are my boundaries?"🤯 .

The strongest indicator that our boundaries have been violated is our emotions.

How do you feel when a stranger suddenly holds your hand? Or when your in-laws comment in how you “should” raise your child? Or when your spouse starts trying to be intimate with you on a really exhausting day?

Maybe it feels good or maybe it feels really uncomfortable.

Just knowing your emotional response to these types of experiences can help you recognize your boundaries.

Emotions give us information to guide us in our lives and relationships. So instead of throwing anger, resentment, sadness, and anxiety under the rug, learn to welcome them into your life and listen to them with intent. 🤗

Learn to pause and ask ➡️ “What is my body trying to tell me?” (heart rate, sweating, tightness in chest, stomach, throat).

Maybe you clench your fists when your sister borrows your new coat, or you tighten your jaw when your granddad asks about your dating life.

Or maybe you love it when this happens!

Our boundaries are shaped by our culture, our religion, our values, whether we’re introverted/ extroverted, our life experiences and our family dynamics.

They are SHAPED but they can be ALTERED as many times as you want until you find YOUR own level of COMFORT.

I want to challenge you to think of a boundary that feels comfortable for you that is not “expected” or “normal” in your family /culture.

💭Would love if you share it below!

The story of how I set my first boundary…

The day I set my first boundary was one of the most challenging days of my life: all my fears came true and even exceeded my negative expectations. I didn't lose the relationship with this person, but there were manipulations and threats about it in the process.
What I experienced on an emotional level was intense. The shock of the disproportionate reaction was hard to process, the mourning of what I would have liked to happen was really painful.

The day I set my first boundary, I understood that the risk of hurting, disappointing, or angering and potentially losing that person will always exist when bounds are set with someone who relates to someone submerged on ego and a need for control.

Still, I confess: that day was the beginning of MY life (it was finally mine!).

❤️‍🩹 A life where I felt free...

❤️‍🩹 A life where I didn't have to hide...

❤️‍🩹 A life in which I could flow with my words and fear didn't stop me, but the other way around: it empowered me...

My experience has given me the opportunity to impact and connect with many hearts around the world that, like me, have felt fear.

You’ve shared your experience with me in the comments. I just wanted to share a little bit of mine with you ♥️

Thanks for being here and for allowing me to be part of your beautiful journey.

This was one of the things that was most difficult for me to understand in my process of change.

Highly sensitive people tend to take responsibility for the feelings of others, causing them to base their actions on other’s feelings. 😔

What ends up happening?

They build a life that is based on the expectations and feelings of others and forget how they actually feel, leaving them in an uncomfortable position. 😨

Neither you nor I can be responsible for the feelings of those around us. and Understanding this is the beginning to having boundaries and peace of mind.

Remember: you can have empathy for the way others feel and still make yourself your number one priority at the same time. ♥️

It feels so painful wanting to be different, to compare ourselves, that we don't like who we are, and we get in this internal fight.

We look for how to fill our time, body, and mind with something that distracts us from the pain.

And I share with you this:

There is something wonderfully bold and liberating about saying yes to our entire imperfect and messy life”.
