If you practice these two simple boundaries, learning to make time on your calendar for you and only serving in the areas that bring you joy, you've just created amazing boundaries around your time.
The holiday season can be a minefield if you love someone struggling with addiction. While others are caught up in the festive spirit, you might find yourself anxious, walking on eggshells, and dreading the next drink or late-night call. But it doesn't have to be this way. Michelle Anderson, in this episode of 'Love Over Addiction', offers two straightforward yet powerful boundaries to help you reclaim your joy during the holidays.
Michelle's first tip is all about carving out time for activities that truly make you happy. Whether it's a quiet walk, a hobby you love, or spending time with supportive friends, these moments of joy are crucial. They act as a buffer against the stress and unpredictability that can come with loving someone with addiction. The second boundary focuses on serving only in areas that light you up.
This means saying 'no' to obligations that drain you and 'yes' to those that energize and fulfill you. By doing this, you're not just protecting your time but also nurturing your well-being. Michelle understands that setting boundaries can feel daunting, especially when guilt creeps in. That's why she introduces her 'Love Over Boundaries' program, designed to help women enforce these boundaries confidently and without guilt.
It's about prioritizing self-care and creating a life where your happiness isn't contingent on your partner's sobriety. If you're ready to transform your holiday experience and learn more about these life-changing boundaries, tune into this episode of 'Love Over Addiction'. Michelle's insights could be the key to a holiday season filled with peace and gratitude, regardless of your partner's behavior.
