🚨 The BEST internal boundary to have with yourself? ✨ Taking care of, investing in and believing in yourself This is THE most important boundary of all (in my opinion) because it all starts here - the desire and commitment to take care of and invest in yourself. We establish internal boundaries in the first place as an expression of and a way to love and care for ourselves. Having and keeping these boundaries is a way to honour yourself, what you need and what matters to you. 💝 Other boundaries to set and keep with yourself could be: ✔ Having personal space and privacy ✔ Not letting other people make important decisions for you ✔ Not ignoring your needs ✔ Paying attention to what you’re feeling or thinking ✔ Letting yourself rest when you need to ✔ Acknowledging and appreciating your effort ✔ Not speaking harshly or unkindly to yourself 💬 What do you think? Any of these especially resonate with you? 👉 And don’t forget to share this with a friend who would benefit from this! _____________ Reminder: The purpose of these posts is to share information, tips and encouragement.
